Recent Baby Pics

Here are 2 recent pics taken a couple weeks ago.


Baby A

Baby B

If you look real close, you may notice that baby A has its hand in front of its face and baby B has the its umbilical cord running down its face. They're not the easiest pictures to view, so if you just don't see it, there's no need to worry. They'll be here before we know it and we'll have plenty of pics to share. We have our next appointment tomorrow afternoon, so we'll probably get a better idea of when the babies will arrive then. Stay tuned...

Over the (East) River and through the (Midtown) Tunnel...

Here's Amy at our local waterfront park in Long Island City, Queens pointing to where babies A & B will be born - NYU Hospital in Manhattan. As of today, Amy's now at 36 weeks!

Big Feet

Here's a pic of Amy's feet after another long day. Only 1 week (O.K., maybe 2 weeks) to go...

We are family...

Here's a picture taken this past weekend. Thirty-six weeks tomorrow and Amy's still standing strong...


Front Row: Cousins Tsubomi, Thomas and Christopher
Back Row: Amy with babies A & B, Aunt Rika with cousin D and Aunt Shannon with cousin C.

Is that a watermelon under your shirt?

On the weekends, Amy makes me walk around the house with a watermelon under my shirt so that I can get some idea of what she is going through. Seriously, I don't know how she does it. She's a trooper!

Who needs Dionne when we've got Dotty?

Dotty West and her "Psychic Family Network" have been predicting "Any Day Now" since the 4th of July. I guess that makes her 0 for 21 as of today.


Here's a pic of Dotty checking her calendar. Dotty assured us, "My calendar is cleared June, July and August." At this rate, she may need to clear September!

How far do you live from here?

During our last visit with the doctor yesterday, he did not have much to say other than, "and how far do you live from here (the hospital)?" We were a little surprised by his question, but he didn't seem too concerned when we told him we live only a couple miles away. Amy is still hanging in there and she was told to just keep doing what she's doing and to come back next week. So stay tuned...

Peak-a-Boo...

Here's a pic of Amy and the gang at 35 weeks.  Only 2 weeks to go!

A Sign of Things to Come?

Recently Amy & I had visions of what many future Christmas Eve's will be like....



Who would have thought putting together a baby stroller would be so difficult? Are these directions in English?

8 Month Abs...

Here's a pic of Amy before her daily ab workout. On a serious note, all is well and the babies are now only about 3 1/2 weeks away.

There's over 11 lbs. of babies in there...

Well, Baby A is currently weighing in at over 6 lbs. (3 weeks ahead of schedule), while Baby B weighs a little over 5 lbs. (right on schedule). Only 4 more weeks to go...


Disclaimer: Amy does not normally lay on her back.

Extended Family...

We spent the Fourth of July at the Poley Compound in upstate NY. Here's a picture of Amy with babies A & B, and cousins Christopher & Thomas with aunt Shannon and cousin C.

Only 5 Weeks to go...

Babies A & B are growing and so is Amy. We can't wait for them to arrive. Stay tuned...
