30th Birthday! In the hospital

So today is my big 30th birthday. The end of this blog. And I had to use a camera phone to take the picture. Oh, well. It was a good day. I had 4 groups of visitors and all of them brought me food. Cassie brought Chipotle, and then I got 3 cakes from Dad and Dawn (pictured above with cake), Jamin, and John and Jen. Not bad! Plus I had room service all day and I got a "happy birthday, I love you mommy" call from Zaria. (=

It's been a good year. Not quite what I would've expected with the twins pregnancy and hospital stay, but still a good year. It's fun to see how much Zaria has grown over the past year, and to see some of the crazy houses we looked at before buying our home last week. I've had a lot of good times with family and friends, and a lot to be thankful for.

Jamin and I will continue to post pictures and updates on our family blog, especially since we'll be seeing two adorable babies within the next 6 weeks or so. You'll find us at:

Day 367: My view

Not a bad view, considering. They're doing a huge construction project on the Children's Hospital across the street. I woke up to a lot of banging this morning, like they were driving in some pilings or something.

I think I messed up somewhere along the line on my day numbering, seeing as how I'm on day 367 . . . it's a bit of a hassle to go back and try to change it, so I guess it is what it is. Tomorrow is my birthday, and I've been told the sad news that I won't be discharged until at least Thursday, the day after. I guess it will be a memorable birthday in the hospital, and hopefully the last b-day I'll have to do in one.

Day 366: Still at hospital

Getting a little cozy. Today is Labor Day, but it looks like we're out of the danger zone of actually going into labor today. So I tried to enjoy my "room service" and watched a "Jon and Kate Plus 8" marathon on the TLC network. I've been told for a while I should see the show since I'm expecting twins, so now I finally know what it's all about. Thanks be to God I am not having sextuplets.
