{Preparing...Preparing...}

So what's going on with the twins?? They are doing well in the womb. The birth mom is 30 weeks pregnant. We did find out that there is only 1 sack with both babies in it, which means they are Identical twins!!! Everyday we just keep singing songs of Praise to our God- we sit in awe of all that is happening.

Twins are usually born between 36 and 38 weeks. That means- we need to start getting ready!! My gut feeling is that the twins will be born in early October. We are preparing, preparing..

We are overwhelmed with the generosity of so many people!! We are getting tons of clothes. Lots of bottles. We have matching cribs and bouncers. We will have a swing, car seats, bassinets, carriers, toys, etc. I am already starting to buy diapers. I will need a lot of them :) The pack n play is up. Mostly to help prepare Jadon for the twins.

We are moving Owaldi (our foreign exchange student) down into the basement. Moving Jadon to Owaldi's old room, and the twins will be in Jadon's old room. Cleaning out the basement is fun- yeah no. We will also have to do our roof and several other house projects. We don't want to worry about anything once the twins are born. (We won't have any time.)

Jadon is starting to grasp the concept of having two baby brothers. He likes to pretend that he is pushing his baby in the swing. He dances with the baby. He even accidentally sat on the baby. Let's hope that doesn't happen in real life :)

We continually pray for the birth mom and the twins daily. We are in contact with the birth mom. We are praying that an opportunity arises that we can meet her before the babies are born.

The next couple of weeks are going to be very busy at the McCabe house. Continue to keep us in your prayers. God is putting all the pieces together- we are praying for healing for all involved!

Still have no names for the twins- what do you suggest?

  2. I still think you should have one K name, but not two... Andrew thinks multiples are much cooler when they have their own letter
