this post, not the baby! Abel Bradley was born on September 27th.  He weighed 8 lbs. 1oz and was 20" long.  He was our biggest baby.  Labor went fine.  I don't know if it's because I'm older or just simply out of shape but this one took alot out of me.  It probably took 2 weeks for me to walk the length of the house without feeling exhausted.  And I DON'T have a big house!  But all is well and he is a sweetheart. He has a bit of hair and it was blonde but it is quickly turning brown.  Good thing too because the rest of us have dark hair.  He's a good baby.  His brothers and sisters just love him to pieces.

He is 5 weeks old now and this is the first week that we have gotten school done each day as well as most chores and meals.  Everyone told me when I was pregnant with my third that going from two to three was difficult but for us that was not true at all.  However, three to four has really gotten my head spinning!

Well, because of said "head-spinning" I don't think I will get to update often but I will check in from time to time and I'll want to keep up with my "friends" blogs as well.  Ya'll post some real interesting things for me to read so when I do come on I'll feel like an adult who has been among friends!
