At this point

As my mom commented, I haven't been blogging a lot lately. There hasn't been too much exciting going on since we found out that our babies are girls! But I thought I'd do a short update today.

We had an amazing experience of God's protection last week. I was driving to work, and felt a bit funny. Couldn't breathe well, started having fuzzy vision. I got off the freeway at my work exit, and within two blocks, I couldn't see, couldn't hear, couldn't feel my hands and feet! I was so grateful to have been lead off the freeway, to a parking spot on the packed road, and I was able to call brother Producer to come help me. I thought I was going to be sick, so I jumped out of my car and that helped my blood flow to my brain again - but I was literally seconds away from completely blacking out in a locked car in the sunshine and heat. I am so thankful for God's protection (didn't black out on the freeway - yikes!) and for Producer's and Boss's help. Wow.

And now, I sit here and realize that four months from today, if I haven't had the babies yet, I will be induced! I hope that it doesn't come to that or a c-section, that I'll go into labor naturally. But only four more months! God-willing, we will have these babies in at most four months from today!

I can do anything for four months. All the "lovely" side-effects of pregnancy can't get me down (although they can make me feel like crap some days!) because I am SO close to meeting my little girls!

Please, Lord, help me to stay strong and keep a top attitude for the rest of this pregnancy. Thank you for your amazing gift to us - these babies! Please guide their development and bring them to a healthy, full-term birth. And help Surfer and I, as we prepare to be parents, to be the kind of mommy and daddy You want us to be. We are so humbled and grateful that You are letting us experience this wonder and joy - Thank you, thank you! Thank you for their beautiful little kicks and turns inside me!
