One month to family of five...

Austin pointed out today that in about a month (we don't have a date set but should have something come this friday) we will be having our twins. one month. Am I ready? Is Helen ready? Who knows, but like it or not, we will have ourselves a set of Irish Triplets.

Things wise, I think we are ready. We have a crib, stroller, carseats, and clothing. And I have started to collect diapers but this is going to be alot of work. A lot of fun and joy i hope too but I am begining to get scared about what will need to happen after they are here to keep everyone happy and feeling loved. As my friend Jane says, "God does not give me more than I can handle" and I certainly think to add "But, boy does he try..." maybe I should have that engraved or painted somewhere. It is something I say in my head alot, and I think I will probably say it alot more. (At least Jane's saying).

I guess what also bugs me is we don't have names yet. We have some in the running but I feel so behind on this because we were sure of Helen's name at 3 mos and when we found out it was girl, it was set. This is nuts! I hope we can find one that feels right soon.

Wow - I can't believe how close you are! My favorite add-on to the "God never gives us more than we can handle" is that - yeah, but I think He got me confused with someone else! Good luck with everything! You will do so well with everything!
