35 weeks

Today we had our 35 week appointment. The ob wanted to check out the babies and since Kennedy is a little smaller, they performed a stress test on her. She passed all 8 parts of the tests with flying colors! She's like her mommy and daddy, A+ students! ;) The stress test was a biomed ultrasound, so we got to see the babies, too. Right now, Graham weighs about 5lb 14oz, and Kennedy weighs about 4lbs 13 oz. Growing right on track!

In the meantime, Heather's legs and feet have been really swollen the past week or so. She tries to stay off them, but it's hard to do while she's teaching. Saturday was by far the worst swelling so far, she couldn't even fit into her shoes! Because of that, the doctor decided that Heather doesn't have to work anymore. She isn't on bed rest, but she will need to stay off her feet a little more, which she can't do at school. And the big news... She is 1 cm dilated (9 to go!) We have a date to be induced if the babies haven't come yet- March 10. Hopefully they'll be here by then, but it's definitely something to look forward to!

In the meantime, Heather is going to be spending some time relaxing- until the babies get here, she is planning on getting a chance to read, maybe get the babies scrapbooks started, spend time with her Grandma Cleda, and making some food to freeze so we have some ready meals when the babies are here.

Keep checking the blog- hopefully we'll have news to share sooner than later!
