HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


None of my costumes would fit this year...so I had to get creative. I also needed something to laugh about.

What do doctor's know!

My due date has come and gone. While it is only two days past, they have had me on pins and needles for months now. At least seven weeks ago, they had me scared of pre-term labor. I've been dilated for over a month now, and every doctor appointment would end with, "We'll see you next week if not sooner." Basically, I'm paying a doctor to freak me out---the rest I am doing on my own.

Tomorrow I have a doctor's appointment to determine what we are going to do. I have been fighting the doctor's urge for me to "pick my baby's birthday" and schedule. But I have been warned all along that he won't let me go past a week over my due date. So tomorrow we will have to decide how we are going to force this baby out. Wish me luck.

10 Things I've Given Up On.

1. Tying my shoes.
2. Trying to see my feet.
3. Picking up anything that is left on the floor.
4. Taking care of my feet...painting toes, clipping toenails, and on occasion even washing my feet. DISGUSTING!
5. Playing football or any other sport with Bridger.
6. Shaving my legs.
7. Trying to keep my pants up and my shirt down. This is NOT pretty.
8. Sitting modestly in a dress.
9. Trying not to run into things with my huge belly. It's impossible. I have bruises to prove it.
10. Sleeping.

Another Wasted Saturday? Depends on who you ask...


I think it was a Saturday well spent. Derek on the other hand...

I kept Derek busy for yet another Saturday. This time he had to paint the wainscoting he put up. Being pregnant definitely has it's benefits...I would have helped paint but I can't paint when I'm pregnant.

Pumpkin Patch



Living in Oregon is great. They have a bunch of local farms that have activities all year. Baggenstos Farm is one that we visit. We pick strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries in the summer. We buy fresh produce there all summer and fall. They have animals and a playground. In the fall they have a corn maze, hay maze, pumpkin bowling, and tractor rides to the pumpkin patch. It is a lot of fun.
