Halloween

Pumpking Patch

We had a little bit of an adventure getting to the pumpkin patch this year. We were suppose to go to a New Seasons BBQ/getting a pumpkin thing. All day we had been talking about going to the pumpkin patch and eating dinner there. I thought the event went from 12-6, but when we got there at 4:30 we found out it was actually from 1-4. We had to break Autry's heart and tell him that the pumpkin patch was closed, his response was, "Is dinner closed to?" We ended up finding another pumpkin patch down the road, but I had to feel like the worse mom in the world for a little bit.

Cute faces and silly faces

Sisters

Coming home

We are home! Autry and Claire are completey enthralled with their new baby sister. Randy and I have to act like a shield around her to make sure she doesn't get hurt, but it is so much fun to see how they love her.

Thoughts from Autry

Emilie: "...when Adelaide came out of mommy she flew out so fast, the doctor had to catch her like a football."
Autry: "Mommy, babies don't fly only airplanes and birds."

Adelaide ______ Poor

I am going crazy

I did 50 jumping jacks to try and induce labor tonight...
nothing happened

Hanging out

Claire was having room time the other day and when I went into get her she was just hanging out on top of her little kitchen. Good thing I put it in the back corner, or she might have toppled out.

Ready for the game

Reasons I know I am getting near the end...

1.) I am humongous

2.) I just climbed into the attic, threw down all toys, clothes, etc. that weren't organized and organized them

3.) I vacuumed the van tonight in the dark

4.) I keep organizing and re-organizing all baby toys,clothes, burp clothes, blankets, etc.

5.) I am WAY more spacey then normal
ie. it took me 6 tries (no joke) the other day to run my debit card at Trader Joe's on Friday, because I kept hitting the wrong button.

6.) I set up the pack and play with the bassinet (adelaide's bed for the first few months) tonight, just to know what it looked like all set up

7.) Did I mention that I am humongous?

Seahawks Game!

Randy and I both LOVE the Seahawks. We were blessed by Randy's parents and they gave us there tickets to the game this Sunday. Someone gave them tickets and they chose not to go to the game beacuse it was suppose to rain. We were up there for the Sheperding a Child's Heart by Tedd Trip seminar, so they let us have their tickets!The seats we had were amazing. The only thing that could have made it better was me not being pregnant :). We took the ferry over from his parents house (we almost missed the ferry and I had to run about 300 yards, which just about killed me), walk about a mile to the stadim, walked through the tailgaters looking at all the CRAZY drunk fans, walked around, enjoyed being around fellow Seahawk fans(these are rare in portland), and watched the Seahawks crush St Louis 37-13. It is always great when Randy and I get to spend the day enjoying eachother, laughing, talking, and doing one of our favorite things (watching the Seahawks). By the end of the day...my hips were killing me, I was exhausted I could barely move, and felt like the baby was going to fall out of me at the end, (we still had a 3 and 1/2 hr car ride home) but, we had so much fun. Thanks Ann and Larry for the tickets, we had such a fun day.
