Last Farmer's Market



I'm not sure how many Sunday markets we've been too since May—my guess would be a lot! We made it to the final one on December 19th with Brittnie. It was coooold ... but we got our coffee and donuts, and did a small shop—milk, bread, etc. It just doesn't feel like Sunday without the market—but we'll be back in April when they reopen with our new brothers in tow. Some of our favorite memories: Milo always having to pee when we get to the market (and the many trees he's peed on), anything from the mushroom stand, all of Milo's favorite samples: cheese and chocolate, pickles on a stick, our smoothie made by bike, our farmer's market guests (Brittnie, Beth, Lawrence & Angela), favorite buys (granola, brussel sprouts, cider, focaccia) ....


Pee/Poop

You like to sit on the potty even though you don't actually do anything. You like to get naked and sit on "wo-wo's potty" and read a magazine and wipe (ewwww you say when you look at the toilet paper) and throw the paper in the potty and close the lid and wash your hands. Mommy is happy you are so interested in the bathroom—but would like for just a drop of bodily fluids to one day enter the actual potty.

The Boys

We are now at almost 33 weeks ... life will never be the same in a mere 3-5 weeks. Both boys seem to be growing well. We had a sonogram on Monday and Baby A is head down and 3 pounds, 11 ounces. Baby B is breech and 4 pounds. Sometime between Wednesday night and Thursday morning one of the babies dropped and it felt like mommy had a bowling ball between her legs. Yikes. Yesterday was a very long day. Luckily, today is better and it's much better if I just sit vs. lay. It takes a lot less time to get up. Babies are still moving a lot and kicking, punching, rolling. It is getting harder to do stuff .... but as a seasoned mommy I know how quiet/mobile/manageable they are vs. when they are born. Am trying to enjoy my last few weeks being pregnant.

Flu Shot Advice

After inquiring about a "reservation" for a flu shot—daddy asked Milo if he should be scared. "No, you're the daddy."
