26 weeks!



I've been trying for the past 3 days to get a picture of my "former 26 weeker" with his hand on my current 26 weeker...but there was little cooperation and even less photographic skill. As of today I'm officially 3 days past where I had the twins. At 26 weeks, Caroline weighs in at 2 pounds even. At 26 weeks Alex was 1 pound 10 oz and Lauren was 1 pound 12oz. So you can see how much bigger Caroline is!
In the medical field 23 weeks is considered "viability" where they try to save the baby. This whole pregnancy I've thought of 26 weeks as that. That being said, I've cut my activity level way back...I have people coming in to play with Alex so I can be off my feet as much as possible...ultimate goal is 10 more weeks...but I NEED 2 more to breathe easily.

In further news, in the past 2 weeks Alex has been doing MUCH better with eating...I figured I needed to post another picture soon...disregard his "special needs hair" that needs to be wet down after nap and sleep to look normal!
