Halloween

Today was a good day. We stayed home and hung out most of the day. Grace and I headed to town to get some last minute things for her costume. She talked me into getting some cat ears because she and Jeffrey wanted me to dress up so bad! I have to admit I was hesitant about it, but I had fun. I haven't dressed up in years, even though it was just the ears and some makeup it was fun. :)

We went to Light Night/Trunk or Treat at our church. It was a lot of fun. All the kiddos were dressed up, there were games and food and lots of fellowship. We had a great time. David was in one of his many Halloween outfits. Lol! He was the cutest! He was very sparkly...he got some of my glitter hairspray all over him! Hehee!

Now I must get myself to bed. It has been a long night and I have to get up for church in the morning, but I know I will be up at about 3am with my little man! I better go and catch some ZZZZZZZZ's! Goodnight! :)

Pumpkin Patch

On Tuesday, we went on a field trip to the pumpkin patch with my little brother's kindergarten class. It was a fun morning, but it was so cold!! We were freezing! I had David all bundled up and carried him around in the front pack. I wrapped my little brother's jacket around us and it looked like I had a headless child! Haha! There were a lot of parents who came along, who are good friends of ours so it was a nice time to socialize as well! :) I love fall, all of the pumpkins and fall decor. It was decorated so cute! We also got some yummy apple cider, my favorite! :)

Yesterday (Wednesday) was a busy day! We were running errands all day, got home changed clothes for church and then were out the door again! It seems like we weren't really at home at all. Church was fun, I work in the nursery. Last night David was the only baby in there. So it was really easy. :)

Today, (Thursday) is another day of running errands. We need to go and get some things that we forgot yesterday! Fun fun! Then tonight, my little brother has his first night of karate. We will see how he likes it! :)

I hope everyone is doing well and has a great day!

Update

Just an update! Things here are going well. David is almost 3 months old now. I can't believe it. He is growing fast, but is still so little!

I am starting to enjoy him more and more. The first several weeks were tough, I have been suffering with postpartum depression. Its miserable! I went to the doctor and was put on some medicine and I am feeling much better. Still good days and bad days, but getting better with time. :) David is smiling more and more every day! I love it! I love that cute toothless grin! He is such a sweetheart!

We are getting really excited, because Aunt Rachel (RW's sister) is coming out for a visit! We can't wait to see her! :)

RW is also doing well. As well as can be expected. He wants to be home and we CAN'T WAIT to have him home! Please keep him in your prayers as he is away serving our country!

On another note, my little sister Grace has been trying out for the basketball team all week. Today they decided who made it and she didn't make it! :( She was so heartbroken. All she wanted was to make the team. It was hard because it was 5th-8th graders trying out, and the older kids were the ones who made it. She is just a little thing, but she gave it all she had! Please keep her in your prayers as well. She is still so sad! :(

I hope everyone is doing well! :)

My handsome little man! He is so good at holding his head up. He is a strong guy. This is one of my favorite pics! :-) He is the sweetest

David's 2 month update

Hello,

Well, David will be 2 months on Oct 4. We had his 2 month well baby check the other day and he is doing really well. He is now 10 lbs 3 oz and is 22". He is doing everything he is supposed to be doing and is right on schedule. He DID NOT like his shots though. He didn't cry AT ALL when he was circumsised, but a few shots and his little world fell apart! It was pitiful! But he was over it pretty quick, just had to get the crying out and we were good. :)

Everything is going well, just busy, busy! Being a Mommy is hard work, MUCH harder than I anticipated! He keeps me on my toes that's for sure, but I wouldn't trade him for anything! He is such a blessing! :)

I hope everyone is doing well. :)
