the month of june

All month I've felt a sense of urgency to get everything done that I want to do -- shopping, playgroups, hosting dinners, visits to the park, photo shoot -- because I feel like after July 1, I could give birth anytime and enter into newborn fog and breastfeeding prison. I already know how demanding breastfeeding is and I can't imagine how challenging it will be to breastfeed twins!


So, before the month ends, I need to finish up the girls' closet, get the carpet professionally cleaned and rearrange the bedroom. My sister arrives on June 28, and as much as I was hoping to sight see with her until labor day, I realize how that will probably not be possible. I tire out so easily these days! Whew!

We were at Children's Place the other day and the worker cleared off a table to allow me to sit (I was about to try to sit in Maxton's stroller!). Then at Ross, I had to go to the car while Maxton and Ben paid because I couldn't stand in line. Standing still is harder than walking around because I feel like my legs are giving out and get lightheaded. Oh the joys of twin pregnancy! At least I'm still walking.
