Trick or Treat!

We started out downtown, walked all along Main St.

This is my tired belly...

We then went to the Mall, where the Police Dpt was doing their Trunk or Treat

Waiting in line for our free panda express plate

Then to the last stop of the night, our ward Trunk or Treat.... At least Mommy got to sit in the back of the car this time!

Lucy got TONS of stuff. Stickers, coupons, Playdough, and of course CANDY!
We are limiting it to 5 pieces a day.

 

Here is Lucy enjoying her last sucker before bed. What a great day it was!

Hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!!

35 weeks

Only 5 More weeks to go!

Had my Doc appointment yesterday, and I am dialated to 1cm. Its not a huge deal. It could stay that way for several weeks. I have been having a lot more Braxton Hicks contractions, but that is normal too. Just praying this baby stays in there until at least his due date on Dec 3rd. If he comes any earlier it will really mess up my school schedule. I have been working hard this semester and I don't want it to go to waste.

I have only gained 1 pound in the last 4 weeks, so that is good. Baby is still on track, I am measuring 35 weeks. He is head down, so hopefully he stays there. We get to have a thorough ultrasound on Monday Nov 7th to see his weight and such, so that will be fun! I am getting to the uncomfortable part. Back pains, laying down seems to be the only comfortable position. I am still sleeping really well. Doc is impressed with my diet so far, says I am doing really good, in fact too good. she told me to add in some more sugars at night because my morning numbers are too low.

We are all excited for Halloween on Monday, Lucy is going to be a Rockstar, Tyler is going to be Meyhem from the AllState commercials and I am going to be a .....Pumpkin :/   yes. A pumpkin. lol. Pictures will come after. Love you all!

Little Miss Home-ec

We bought Tyler some jeans at Costco the other day, and this is the story of my life. NO... I am not going to rag on my husband. Just simply stating the facts. You know Tyler, he is the shortest in his family. So we always get him X-30 pants. (its hard to find 29s) so every pair of pants that we have ever gotten him, he has complained about how long they are and he HATES walking on his pants. so after much debate he decided he needed to find someone to hem his pants. well I was like, that's going to cost us more money, and who are you going to get to do it? Do you know anyone in town? Of course he said no. So last night I jokingly said, If I had a sewing machine, I could hem your pants for the rest of your life!   Well can you guess what happened next?

He has been donating plasma for the last month trying to save up to buy a nice computer for graduate school, this is going to take him like 15 weeks of donating to get enough, but he is doing it. But last night he got the idea that he was going to buy me a sewing machine. So he took the envelope out with his money in it, and we headed to walmart. This made me feel really bad, I didn't want him to spend that blood money on me.... but I guess he was fed up with too long pants. So my sweet husband, being the giving man that he is, bought me my first sewing machine with his own money. At  first I was like, well this isn't really a gift for me, because I will be using it to fix his clothes. but the more I think about it, the more excited I get to have one! I have endless possibilities to what I can make! My mind is already coming up with all sorts of ideas! i have plans to make a boppy cover, hem some pants (of course), make an apron for Lucy for her play kitchen, a pillow case for her bed... and so much more. Its not a real fancy machine, but it is fancy enough to do what I need it to do,, and I am so excited to start my projects! So Tyler, THANK YOU so much for this gift. You are an amazing husband and you never cease to amaze me with your generosity and kindness. I love you more each day.
