Last hurrah

We planned a fun trip to Crested Butte to ski (Ryan and the girls), play in the pool and enjoy the little town.  We wanted to squeeze in one more fun trip before the baby comes.  We left Thursday after school, Ryan had a pretty bad head cold already, but he was hoping he’d already been through the worst of it so we took off for our fun weekend.  We were all so looking forward to it!  That night we got in at 9pm or so and attempted to put kids to bed, Finn put up a HUGE fuss about it, but eventually did fall asleep after tons of crying.  I felt so bad for our neighbors!  We woke up in the morning to find Sadie was now so sick and couldn’t get out of bed and Ryan had had a rough night.  Ryan and Sadie ended up staying in bed all day while Piper enjoyed the swimming pool and then again in the evening with Finn.  At least Pipes had a blast because it was a pretty miserable day for the others.  We went to bed that night without much change in the sickies and then woke up in the morning to Piper puking.  Nice.  That’s when we decided it was time to cut this vacation short.  Sadie was still layed out on the bed not even wanting to sit up, Ryan was feeling slightly better but still not so hot.  And that concluded our big last hurrah of a trip.  We packed up and drove home.  And I am so glad we did!  Piper pretty much puked the whole way home and today they are both quarantined in their bedroom having a nice relaxing day in their beds trying to feel better. 

The house is so quiet with the girls tucked away and Finn having so much room to roam so I pulled out my stretchy pants sewing project and got right to work.  I fixed them right up and now they’re actually what I had envisioned instead of the ugly, saggy pants they were after the first go at it, they are now the legwarmer sweats I wanted them to be.  Check that off the list. 

and yes, my belly pretty much hangs out of all of my shirts already.  I still have two months to go and my wardrobe is narrowing daily.
