20 inches of snow are expected here in the next 24 hours. They're calling it a "Top 5 storm", meaning it will be among the 5 biggest storms on record here. The grocery store was a total zoo yesterday. School was canceled for Friday by Thursday afternoon - and it isn't going to start snowing until this afternoon (Friday). People are kinda acting like the end of the world is coming.
I had a "nickel auction" last night - guests each bring $5 worth of nickels and 3 things to auction off. Only 4 people came which was a big bummer. But it was still fun to sit around and chat with girlfriends. The biggest buzz was created by a pair of earrings that went for 45 nickels.
Our family has big plans for building an igloo tomorrow.
And lastly, I am finally with child. The latest Worth should arrive late September to early October. I am flat out admitting that I hope this is a girl. Because, one, my family goes girl, boy, boy, girl (and I'm that #4 girl!) so it would be fun to repeat that, and two, because this baby is sleeping in Naomi's purple princess castle room whether it's a boy or girl. We are so excited. I've only been to the Dr. once yet, but things look good. I actually managed to keep this a secret from most of my friends and family for a whopping three weeks. That's a new record for me. I'm not very good at keeping this kind of thing to myself. It's too exciting! Plus, I feel like poo and I want people to know why I'm suddenly a total party pooper. The Dr. has me on progesterone (just to be safe) twice a day and each time I take that little round pill it makes me so dizzy that I have to lay down for an hour. But I'm not complaining (much) because I'm so happy that this baby is finally on his/her way.
And that's the news.

We think our family is "worth" a million. A million hugs, smiles, years, laughs, thoughts ... a million everything.

G-R-E-A-T news... Congrats to everyone!
Naomi and Mom will be delighted to have another girl in the house! (plus it makes an even gender's number - but in the other hand it would be so funny to hear Richard's opposition to lay his baby in a purple girly room if a son comes at the end... I'm laughing already!) :)
Woooo hoo!
I'm so happy for you! sorry for the dragging, cruddy part of pregnancy. you can complain all you want and we'll ALL still know how excited you are!
Feeling crummy means things are going well!!! Yeah!! Congratulations to you and the family, how EXCITING!!!
Sorry I couldn't make the auction last night - and I didn't even manage to bring over my items! Oh brother. I've clocked out.
Awesome!! You know what's funny? Just yesterday I asked mom if you were pregnant yet. She kind of stumbled and didn't know what to say, and then just said no comment. I hope you get the girl you wish for (and if not, the next one after that can always be a girl right?)
congratulations! What are the chances that you will be moving to pittsburgh before september? slim to none? oh come on... i don't know if i can take it being away from yet ANOTHER worth baby.
yay!
Hi ive just joined[url=http://dogdegree.com/James137].[/url]
I had to take that little pill when I was pregnant with B. It make me feel like my skin was crawling and when that was over like I needed to pull out my hair. Hormones do crazy things to us ladies.
So, just when I get a system down for keeping up on tweets (but am behind on reading blogs) you go and change your announcement venue... :) Congratulations; I hope things continue to go well!
Wonderful news!
Good thing I have insomnia tonight, or who know when I would have heard.
Stay warm out there.
