Visit

Well yesterday the babies parents came into town! We got to visit some yesterday evening and spend most of today with them. It was great! We spent some time at my home then went and had dinner. They got to spend some time with my boys and get a real sense for my family. Today I got up and we went to the Peek in the Pod. For those of you who do not know what this is it is a place that does elective 2D, 3D, and 4D ultrasounds. We got to see lots of angles and parts of the babies. This was the first time that the parents saw an ultrasound live and got to hear the commentary and ask questions. It was a great experience for both of us. Then we went to Meijer to peruse the baby aisles so they could get a basic idea of a moms recommendations and things that might not be necessary and why or why not. It was nice to be able to give my opinion. I know everyone must find what works for them but I am sure they want all of the opinions they can get so they can make an informed decision. After our shopping trip we went to take a tour of the hospital so we could all have an idea of what to expect. We got to go to the birthing rooms, the postpartum rooms, the nurseries, and the OR area. They also have what they call family rooms where the parents will be able to come sleep and spend time with their babies while they are there. I really is a nice place and I am glad we chose it for the delivery. We got to meet with the head nurse, and social worker to get all of our questions answered. Then we had lunch and got to discuss everything about today. The boys were supposed to have ball games tonight but due to field conditions they were canceled as much as that stinks for them I was glad because after all of that I am exhausted. It was great and I loved every minute of it!
