Tomorrow is the Big Day!

Today marks my 5th week behind me in the hospital and I can't believe that by this time tomorrow I will be able to finally look at my baby girls. It's so weird to think that today is my last day to be pregnant! I can barely remember what it was like to be able to look down and see my feet! Rob and I toured the NICU last night. We feel a lot better after seeing what a nice facility it is and how helpful the nurses are there. They answered all our questions and were very encouraging about how well 34 weekers typically do with a little help.

My parents all arrive on flights this afternoon/evening and I already told them that we have to order a big pizza for dinner because I won't be able to eat after tonight - no breakfast tomorrow before the surgery and probably not for the better part of the day either. The doctors told me that I'll be taken downstairs tomorrow morning around 9am to prep for the surgery. Rob and I are both a little nervous, but definitely ready to meet our girls! We'll post an update and pictures as soon as the chaos settles after the big event. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers for a safe delivery tomorrow morning!
