Here is a profile picture of our sweet daughter at 35 weeks at my monthly (and last) growth scan. The doctor said she is measuring at about 5 lbs. 4 oz., and that hopefully she'll be around 6 or 6 1/2 lbs. by the time she's born. The perfect little size... imagine how cute and tiny she'll be!!!
Our little son is hard to accurately measure, but the doctor said he's probably around 3 lbs, and he may weigh up to around 4 lbs. at delivery. So our little kiddos will definitely be on the smaller side...which is normal for twins.
I have two weeks left from today! I cannot believe how fast the time has flown. This has been such a wonderful time I've had to spend with my two little babies, and to be completely honest, I'm sad that the pregnancy is coming to a close, probably more so than most mothers. Knowing that the last 9 months I've spend carrying my son (and the short time after delivery) is the only time I'll have with him in this earthly life has been bittersweet. I feel privileged to have had this time with him, but sad that soon I'll have to say goodbye.
But mostly, I just can't wait to meet them and fall madly in love with them! I know that raising my little girl will be a sweet reminder to me of the tender mercies of the Lord, and that families can be together forever.
