Trunk or Treat












Well these pictures were in order and then I messed up and now they aren't so you will have to figure out what order they are suppose to be in. Gotta love Blogger. Anyway, we have been carving pumpkins like crazy (and when I say we, I mean Rick). We have three carved pumpkins. The smiley face was designed by Keira and the other two are Rick's creations. The green pumpkin is a character from a video game he likes to play. He specifically found a green pumpkin to make it because the character is green. He is creative, we know.

The girls went to Trunk or Treat and had a blast. I handed out candy and Rick took the girls around. Elaina was really into it I guess and yelled "Thank you!!" at everyone that gave her candy. Never say that girl isn't grateful. I didn't dress Elaina up this year. She just went in a cute Halloween shirt which she loves. Keira wanted to be a princess again so that is what she was. We loved the candy for Halloween but I am glad that we can move on from this holiday and finally get to the good holidays. haha. Crank up the Christmas music!!!

Pumpkin Patch 2010










We had lots of fun at the pumpkin patch this year and we were lucky to miss the rain by minutes! We still got nice and muddy but isn't that part of the fun of picking your own pumpkin? Elaina was lots of help and tried to push the wheelbarrow around but it is bigger than she is so it didn't work out too well. Rick was like a kid at a candy store. He loves to find the perfect pumpkins for his masterpieces. We took the girls to look at the animals and I was super surprised to see that Keira was brave enough to pet some sheep. Elaina did pet the goats but I didn't get a picture of her doing it. I missed the first time and then she didn't do it again. They had a baby cow that was passed out and it was so cute! I couldn't get either of the girls to go pet it but I took a picture anyway.

Cat in the Hat



Elaina does this every time Cat in the Hat comes on. Soooo funny. Keira usually does it a little too but she figured out I was taking a video.

Baby Bump

Here it is at 22 1/2 weeks. My first picture of the baby bump. I have been slacking. Hopefully she will forgive me someday for being so forgetful.

Cousins!



As everyone hopefully knows by now, my sister Kendra had her baby on Saturday. I finally got a chance to bring the girls over to meet their very first cousin and they were so excited! They both ran up to her as soon as they walked in and wanted to hug and kiss her and hold her. Keira held her all by herself and did really well. Elaina loved giving the baby "hugs" which means she wanted to hold her. Elaina couldn't get enough of the baby. We just had to remind her to be soft because she was trying to treat her like one of her dolls. I hope they are as enthusiastic of their new sister as they are of Analei because they did so good!! We love finally having a cousin of our very own. :)

Drumroll Please....

It's a GIRL!! Rick is outnumbered by leaps and bounds now. I can't believe it is a girl. I am actually a little shocked. Rick and I have already begun the name argument (oh, I mean discussion). This should be interesting. Good thing I don't have to buy a whole new wardrobe because I have to replace the crib and a couple other things. Of course new clothes aren't completely out of the question. Some have been well loved by two kids (or more) already. I got to take my first glucose test today. So now I need to cross my fingers on that. Oh the joys of pregnancy.
