37 Weeks

We are very excited to have made it to this big milestone and are so thankful to Mrs. R for allowing our babies to "bake" for so long!  She truly has done an amazing job and we will always be eternally grateful for what she is doing for us.  The babies should be ready to go at this point and while they apparently are very happy in their warm and dark home, their parents are ready to meet them!  We both believe that today, 11/1/11 or 1/11/11 (depending on your order preference), is a great birthday.  Apparently, 20% of the people responding to the poll agree with us.   For now we continue to wait for the important phone call.

Times of India is reporting that a little girl named Nargis Yadav, born yesterday was the seven billionth person.  The truth is no one really knows who the seven billionth person is/will be or exactly when, so I am sure that my husband will continue to believe it is TO or TT!  

We have been attempting to keep ourselves busy, so we don't go stir crazy!! The wait is definitely starting to get to us. Yesterday, we continued our new favorite past time - shopping!  Enjoy some pictures of Sarojini Market.  In the pictures take note of the fact that it is just opening and "relatively" empty.  We have been told by our drivers that its too crowded for us in the evening when the market is at its peak.

Too crowded! Ha! The evening is when the shopping gets good at Sarojini. I'm glad you're finding something to do while waiting for babies. I think I'm starting to go slowly insane!!
