Just doing a quick check in to see how things are going....sorry I've been a crappy blogger lately, there is just no time anymore. Sigh.
Anyway, SO GREAT to hear everything is going well, to think your just a couple of months away from meeting and holding your baby boys! I can't wait for that post, but until then I'll try to stay more updated.
The 26th week.... OMG time is FLYING :)
