Always busy & pics

No, not the phone, because at this point we have 7 telephone lines in the house, 5 of which we use often (unbelievable, huh?) Me. I'm too busy and I still feel like I'm not getting anything done.

Today is Hadas's test for the Israeli Arts & Science Academy (goes 10th - 12th grade). She's been doing psychometric tests in preparation for the past few weeks and, though she was stressed this morning, I think she'll do pretty well & probably has a fair chance of being accepted. Ohad drove her there (to Jerusalem) this morning and is staying with her until 3, which means I have to pick up the little girls from 2 different places at about the same time (well, within 10 minutes of each other & they're in places that are about 7 minutes apart, so it's kind of pushing it). On Fridays they have special ceremonies that the girls don't want to miss, so I can't really pick either one up early.




I still haven't decided about packing the bag. Maybe I'll just choose the bag this coming week & start packing it next week?

I might have mentioned that I'm not terribly large this pregnancy (and the only ones who might say I'm lying are Kirby and my sister...) anyway, 2 days ago I went to buy a jumprope for Lilach, but it looked too long. The lady in the store suggested I try it. I gave her the weirdest look, like, "are you totally and completely out of your mind?" Did she really not notice? Is that a good thing?

And finally, some pictures...

Hadas before her test this morning (and yes, she would kill me if she knew what picture I am posting, but fortunately, she's too lazy to read my blog).














(left to right) Matan, Abigail & Lilach. Matan and Lilach are my IVF-FET twins.
















Nomi & Abigail eating breakfast in their pajamas.




















And last, a picture of me at the end of the day - waiting for the house to be quiet again so that I can... start working again :-(

  • Hee hee! You are not that big. In fact, rather petite. It just looks like you swallowed a soccer ball.

    And let's just remember, I'm not the one that called you a hippo. :)

  • Hey Rach, you told me to pack my bag 1 month before the baby was due. So go on, pack up!

  • Ah, trilcat, but there's a difference between little sisters having their first baby and people like me who know what a long, long, everlasting 9th month is (that goes deep into the 10th month).

    See my next post for more info.

  • The little ones are adorable! Hope your daughter does well on her test - she looked nervous.
