where to even start??

here are some of the things that have been going on around here....

MOLLY
the beginning of this month was tough for us. our sweet little molly kitty got very sick and we ended up having to put her down. she was the best, most perfect kitty for our family. she was sweet and spunky. we loved her so much and she is very much missed around here.

we went back to boxx berry farms this year to search for our perfect pumpkins. the boys got an extra bumpety train ride.

here are the kiddos at our ?? annual pumpkin carving party. this is the best pic i got of jason's pumpkin. it's the green one behind brookie. if you can't tell, it's a fetus. in a womb. he's too funny.

jess is the hostess with the mostest and had cute little favors for everyone. here is miss brookie showing everyone the proper way to use a kaliedescope. she is just too cute!!

ladies' man
this little guy is all about the ladies. he was pretty darn sad that his keira wasn't coming. but he was happy with the next best thing...her gorgeous mama!! and this pic sure shows his heart. i think we're in for trouble, for sure!!


nana heidi
came up with tif for the shower... she brought the boys new books and read to them. it was really sweet. boomer looks so concerned because the book is all about stranger danger!

baby shower
ellie's shower was on saturday. it turned out great. the decorations were so cute that i'm keeping them up until she's born. unless thanksgiving comes first... which it had better not!! lots of friends and family came to celebrate and lizzie and jessie were the best hostesses. i had lots of fun. i only took one pic on my camera, so until i get pics back from other people, here is me and lizzie...hopefully our last photo op with us both having bellies!


37 weeks
these pants were a STEAL of a deal at target last night... $3.51. i've been avoiding buying new comfy jammies. i outgrew mine months ago, and ended up taking over all of jason's. he's happy to not have me in his clothes anymore, but hates these pants. i think they're super cute. they have bright little owls all over them.




i've been having lots of contractions. they will check me on friday to see if my body is doing anything productive yet. the time is still FLYING, even though my body is DONE and has been for a few weeks now. i can't quite fathom yet how life is going to change. we are mostly ready, but still have some things that need to get done or that we need to buy before we really are.

i have lots of projects that need to get done. costumes, a baby shower gift for the neighbor, christmas jammie alterations for ellie, thank yous, the boys' playkitchen christmas gift... and that's just craft stuff.

maybe now that my blog is mostly caught up, i can feel like i can move onto those things that need to get done. and i'll leave you with yet another super cute prego pic...
