Seeing Double: 25 Weeks: Finished the nursery just in time for bed rest!

As of Monday, I'm 25 weeks along and it's a great feeling! At my appointment last week baby boy was up to 1 lb 8 oz and baby girl was 1 lb 6 oz. It's so hard to believe the babies will be here within a few short months. We're pretty darn close to being ready for them though. I had my fourth and final baby shower on Friday at work. Two of my coworkers, Sarah and Haley, got everyone together and hosted the shower. It turned out cute and it was a fun afternoon! Jeremy and I finished up the nursery this weekend and we're really happy with how it turned out. It's perfect for our little twins :-) I have to give my hubby lots of credit for all the time he spent painting the room (particularly the striped wall), repainting a hutch/shelf that used to belong to my uncle, and for helping me get everything in place. All the little (and I do mean little!) clothes and blankets are washed, the drawers and closet are organized, and we even have their bathroom all decorated. Yes, I'm aware newborns don't actually use the bathroom BUT we couldn't resist the Dr. Seuss decorations! And by that I mean I couldn't resist them and with a little convincing, Jeremy agreed to play along. ;-)

I'm officially on half days bed rest now. Bascially I work until noon each day and then head home to enjoy the couch and TV. The dogs are becoming quite spoiled with all the extra attention they are getting. I think they are enjoying it a little more than me. Granted it's nice to only work half days but boredom sets in pretty quick at home when you really aren't allowed to do much! Let me know if you have any suggestions for activities I can do while sitting on my hiney in the afternoons! I've already started working on the baby books. I can't wait to fill in their names and stats once they are born!
