We carved our family pumpkin tonight and it was so much fun!  Of course my little can’t get hands dirty boy refused to get down and grubby so he had to use the spoon!  It was so much fun and he even found a treat inside of the pumpkin!  Wow…lucky boy!

I’ve only got 98 days left until 40 weeks of pregnancy!  To put that in perspective I’ve already been pregnant for 182 days!  It’s pretty neat to watch the days tick by but more exciting to know that we’re down to double digits now!  Hooray!  Like previous weeks I’m still feeling like we have so [...]
