I guess I'll try my hand at this blogging thing...

Well, we're scheduled to go to UCSF at 8am on Monday, and depending on Baby A's position, I will either be induced or have a C-section. I'm hoping for induced labor (well, natural labor would be best, but induction is the next best thing). The boys have been in the optimal position (both head down) for the last week or so. But the week before that, we had three appointments over three days, and the boys were in different positions each time! Thus, I am a little nervous that they will have moved around again, but hopefully they're sticking with their current position.

Meanwhile, Ben and I have been up to some fun things:


We had a picnic on our little lawn on Benjamin's birthday. I made BBQ chicken using a recipe from the America's Test Kitchen Family Cookbook - yum, yum, yum. Round that out with some corn on the cob, coleslaw, and raspberry lemonade, and you've got yourself one tasty picnic.



After the picnic, we headed out to Ben & Jen's to have some pineapple upside down cake with them and Mom & Dad. We capped off the evening with the fireworks show in Pleasant Hill by DVC.

Today proved to be another good picnic day, so I picked Ben up from work and we ate a lunch of leftovers in Codornices Park.


We're getting excited for these baby boys to join us. It's a little surreal and a bit unnerving to have a set delivery date - to know that we WILL be parents by mid-week next week. But we're going to do it (haha, not really another option at this point). And I think it will be amazing.
