Well, October was kind of a yucky month at our house. We started the month off with both of the girls having strep and then Abbie got an awful virus that gave her a terrible rash that made her look like a speckled frog. Dan and I haven't been extremely sick but we haven't been feeling completely healthy either. Because we have been cooped up for awhile and everyone seems to be healthy at the moment I decided to take the girls to the Salem Hospital Baby Fair this past weekend. The girls got to dress up for a halloween costume contest and run around and play games for a few hours. They had a blast! Abbie got to compete in her 1st (and prob. only) Diaper Derby. There were 6 kids in her heat ages 16-18mo. The goal was just to run from start to finish. I had the "perfect strategy." Most people had another parent or grandparent at the finish line but I had ANDREA! And b/c Abbie loves her sis so much they yelled GO and Abbie ran so fast towards Andie that she knocked her over and both girls went rolling. It sure got the crowd laughing! I just wish I would've thought to bring the video camera. Andrea also had a great time going around to all the tables picking up pamphlets of all types of children information...like I need more junk in my house..haha!
