Halloween 2014


We had a fun Halloween here in Meridian.
On the 29th we went to a Trunk-Or-Treat down at the City Hall. We stood in line for over and HOUR! before we got to the trunks. And then after stopping at about 8 trunks Ethan was tired and hungry... Totally not worth our time. My feet hurt, they're not use to carrying so much weight lol.

 On Halloween night we went Trick-Or-Treating with our friends and their three kids. We walked SO MUCH! It was fun. There was a house that was INSANELY SCARY AND AWESOME! They had a hearse in the driveway with someone in it that looked creepy and was banging on the window. They had people in the garage taking out someones guts, a scary looking clown up the walk to the door and a funny blown up shadow guy. I don't know how my kids didn't get super freaked out. The hearse is what got me ha. I tried to video it but the lighting was all off. 

The boys got more candy than they have any other year and really enjoyed going out.



 I made this awesome wound with TP and elmers glue. Pinterest rock!
 Thomas just kept snapping the pictures so I acted like a Zombie coming at him haha
 The boys were ninjas this year. I tried to get them to be something scary... but they wouldn't.

33.5 weeks

  Today I had a midwife appointment. They are all done at my house because she lives super close to me.
Its so nice having someone to ask questions to and not feel rushed.

Ava is doing great!
I am measuring right at 33.5 weeks
I weigh 174 (yikes!)
She loves to stay in my ribs on the right side. (I didn't even know that the baby could go that far into the ribs!! That's how far she is in them ha)
We have decided the middle name Claire ❤❤ after my Granny. My dad's mom.
Her fist name is super close to my Moms mom and so I feel like she is named after each great grandma.
I love how all my kids names have meanings and are named after grandparents.
  I am getting nervous for the pain and length of the labor. But I know my body and the baby both know how to deliver.
My midwife and her assistant will be such a great support. Eric will be too, As long as he isn't too occupied with my pain 😉.

Space Derby!

The boys do the wiggalow cheer in scouts. It's too funny that they do a cheer that I did in high school.

   Today was the Spacy Derby. 
 Thomas lost out the first race - I think one of the rubber bands came undone before t went.
  Ethan won his first two rounds. He took first place for the Tiger den but didn't place in the whole group.
Ethans first place medal
Ignore the messy uniforms ha

  The Derby took way to long lol. We got there at 11 And left at 2:30.
The boys are definitely getting more decorated.
Doing the Wiggalow.

Cub Scouts

Ethan with a couple of the Scouts in our Den at our Den meeting.

The boys had their first cub scout "party". The house we went to had a huge backyard so the boys had a blast running around with all the other kids.
We then built a fire and played some scout games and did scout cheers. And of course roasted marshmallows.
They are loving being in Cub Scouts! We appreciate all of you who helped with the fundraiser or donated so the boys could be involved in this!!!!!

According to my boys (Will be updated often)

According to my boys:
* I have an egg in my belly that is going to hatch.
* Ethan wants to know what happens when he gets too big for the tub and we can't afford a bigger tub. (Because he can't fit in it laying down)
* the line on my tummy from.being pregnant - Ava drew that while she's been in my belly.

Today I was that parent

Today I let my kids run wild at Wal-Mart. I was tired and too exhausted to tell them to stop and stay by me. Which is what I normally do.

I am not sure if it's the long days of summer or my pregnancy hormones. Or both. But I am was tired of telling them to stop. Tired of wasting my breath.
I dared, almost begged, for anyone in that store to say something to me. Oh the poor soul that would have. Thank God no one did because it would have been like the devil himself was yelling at them. And I would have never forgiven myself either.

So today I was that mom. And I don't feel one bit bad about it.
