living in squalor

day: 26w6d
meds: prenatal, baby aspirin, iron supplement
side effects: belly soccer, heavy feeling
mood: sometimes you need to laugh at yourself

i’ve been documenting everything about this journey through ivf and our twin pregnancy and realized today—after a visit from a tennis friend who had never actually been to our place before—that i haven’t documented the mess. as she stepped over boxes and shimmied around the washer and dryer that are still in our living room, i found myself apologizing over and over. you see, it’s not like us to live this way—in total chaos and transition. i like things nice and clean and lately, well, see for yourself …

this is our once-stylish 2nd bedroom as well as the living room. i can’t believe i’m actually posting this! my face is turning red!! hopefully soon everything will be back in its proper place and the nursery will be all sparkling and cute—at least until a few minutes after the boys get here!!
