Yesterday, we went to the doctor, and got to see the twins again via ultrasound. Of course, these days we are seeing their movements through my belly just about all the time! We were pleased to learn that their estimated weights are now approximately 4.2 and 4.4 pounds - which is excellent! Each one is on target for a single baby's weight at this stage - which, of course, means I am carrying about 8.5 pounds of baby right now, and growing wider and wider with each passing day (since they are side-by-side). We also found out that they had completely reversed positions... three weeks ago, the boy was head-down and the girl was breech; but now, the girl is head-down and the boy is breech. It's unusual for twins to still be able to move this much this far along, but we were warned that if it did happen, that we would definitely know it! We're pretty sure the big flip happened on Sunday night, when what appeared to be a minor eruption occurred beneath my skin. Good thing we were warned!
In other news, we were able to get some important baby-prep projects done this weekend. First and foremost, Joe set up the crib and one of the two dressers - yeah! Which means that now we have a place for the babies and their stuff. (In case you were wondering, twins usually share a crib for about 6 months - so that is the plan for us.) Meanwhile, I got to work organizing our impossibly tiny (though very necessary) hall closet. If you saw it before, you would know this is a vast improvement! Joe also got us a 
label-maker, so I even went to town labeling each shelf - which may be too teeny to see from the picture, but they're there. Yes, a tad anal, I know, but I love my labels! We also reorganized our room, washed and organized all the baby clothes we're received, and cooked some meals to go into our storage freezer. Next projects: finishing up the rest of the nursery, relocating my closet from the babies' room to our new armoire, and tackling the basement. Hopefully, we'll be able to squeeze in some time for at one of these projects next weekend, in between our childbirth prep class!

OMG, I love the organization of the closet, now when I come down to help you I won't have to be annoying and ask you where everything is!
