{this & that}

• Every time that Gracie and Luke get annoyed with Drew lately, his comeback is, "But I am a nice person!" It makes me smile each and every time.
• Luke is home from school today with a temperature of 101 and a sore throat. Gracie started the cold last week. Drew is now sniffling and coughing. Is this just life with school age kids- one thing after another just spread and shared among all three kids?
• I survived my last horrible-tasting orange drink blood glucose test at the OB yesterday. Chalk the fasting and that awful drink up to just another thing I will never, ever miss when I look back on being pregnant. The girl in the waiting room with me said that her previous OB had let her eat a Snickers bar instead- that would be so, so much better!
• Little baby girl Hedenberg is measuring right on track for 29 weeks. We'll have two more ultrasounds over the next two months to keep track of her size. We're hoping she will take after her petite big sister with her birth weight and not her eight pound, ten ounce big brother so that we will not have to go the C-section route. 
• There is a lot of nesting going on in the Hedenberg household. A new nursery is being created, bedrooms are being swapped around, walls are being painted, closets are being renovated. Pictures to follow soon...
• Spring Break is days away. I am so looking forward to having the kids home for a week!

It is a horribly rainy Wednesday here in Knoxville- the kind of day that makes me grateful we don't have to go outside at all. The boys are playing Legos and cars at the dining room table, we have big exciting plans for PBJ's and smoothies for lunch in a bit, and then I am hoping all three of us can curl up in my bed afterwards for a nice rest.
