Thirty ONE weeks

Saturday morning and we woke up to a nice layer of snow on the ground. October! I think our high for today is in the mid 30's... brrrrr. We didn't make it to the craft festival last night. By the time we got done with the Multiples rummage sale there would have been only an hour and a half to 'run' through the building. It wasn't worth paying to get into so after a little shuffling of kids we met Tom home about 3 minuets after he got there. He was surprised! We will probably try to go either today or tomorrow. After looking at the forecast I'm thinking today would be a better choice since it might snow again tomorrow.

My little brother, whom Abby and I hung out with yesterday for awhile, started running a temp last night. :( It seems no matter where we go or what we do... it is impossible to avoid being around people who are sick. Hopefully we can avoid getting what he has. I'm already not feeling very good. My chest is really heavy and hurts and I have a nasty cough. Abs took a 2 1/2 hour nap yesterday and I slept for 2 of it!! Made for a fast afternoon I guess and I was still exhausted last night. She's got a bunch of teeth coming in towards the back (maybe molers?) and I've decided this is probably why she's been less than happy for awhile. But we are finally getting those teeth in!

I didn't find much at the sale. We got there about 20 minuets after 6 (it started at 6) and people just went through and grabbed and grabbed stuff! Some had piles by the time we got there. I got a little stuffed bowling pin set and an outfit for Abby all for 3 bucks... but thats all I got. I did join their club though so hopefully there will be more in the future! Abs loved the babies and kept wanting to bring them toys, it was so cute. Perhaps she will love her sisters just as much :)

Well Abby is in need of more breakfast so I should go. Here is what our babies are doing now:

How your baby's growing: 

By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds  and is about 16.7 inches long, taking up a lot of space in your uterus. You're gaining about a pound a week and roughly half of that goes right to your baby. In fact, she'll gain a third to half of her birth weight during the next 7 weeks as she fattens up for survival outside the womb. She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth.

 And I will close with a cute Abby story:

We were driving down to my parents to watch my sister run in a Cross Country meet. We've had a lot of road construction lately so while going through one of the zones I moved over a little more onto the shoulder to give the workers some more room. The rumble bars on the side of the road were really loud and Abby very concerned goes "NO NO MOMMY NO!" and then trailed off into her little scolding noises. She was not happy I had gone onto the side of the road!
