When we saw that our friend Jen Snekser had created a blog to let us all know how things were going during her pregnancy, we thought it was a great idea. We wanted to start it right away, but at that point, I was only about 7 or 8 weeks along, and we hadn't planned on telling anyone, including our parents, until week 12. Then when we found out it was twins (at about 8 weeks) we wanted to write about our reactions, but we didn't want people to know it was twins until we found out their genders. People thought I was crazy for that (including Steve) but it was so incredibly worth it. Giving people time to get over the initial surprise that there was to be a new Sweeney made them so much more surprised when they found out there would actually be two new Sweeneys, but more about that later. So, we decided to hold off on the blog writing until week 20. Well, that was 4 weeks ago. We have good intentions, but neither of us are the best about doing things we say we are going to do. It would have been smart for us to write up things as we went along to post later, and I thought about that, but well.... see that previous sentence again.
Well, better late than never. The plan is to start off with how things are going now, and then make our way back through time. With any luck, we can catch up a bit over Christmas break.
