Halloween and a bit of miscellany

Recently I lent out some baby gear to a friend. I just got it back, and decided we would need it pretty soon, so I might as well leave it out. Addie LOVES the swing!!!!!!!!! She is in it ALL THE TIME!


***********************************************************

This year for Halloween, Addie was a frog.... she wasn't so sure about it at first....


Then she saw her reflection!





She couldn't stop staring at hearself.


Ribbit!


Ready to go!


Going to Auntie's house... she had to bring her horsey!





Getting her first bit of candy.


She ate it right away!


Next we went to cousin Steve and Sam's house... where we ran into Billy!


Billy scoping out her candy.





Trick or Treat at Grandma's!!!!


Elsie wanted in on it too!


Oreos from Grandma... she couldn't wait!


Every year I try to do a costume picture by her pumpkin. This year I couldn't get Elsie to sit by her... or her pumpkin to stay up!
She has Oreo chocolate all over her face too! hahaha!


It is hard to get her to say "cheese" AND look at me!





She did hold up the pumpkin pretty good!


Distraction at it's peak...


Are we done yet?


After trick or treating, it was bead time!






***********************************************************

Last week we also took Addie's toddler bed apart to make it into a full size bed! She loves helping:


She LOVES her new big girl bed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Hmmmm.....


She LOVES bouncing on it!!!!!! (which she calls dancing)


SO much fun!


If you remember, the transition from crib to toddler bed, wasn't the smoothest... I was worried this would be a repeat... but it has gone SO well! She has never gotten out of it after we put her in bed, and she almost always falls asleep in a few minutes... had I known it would go this well I would have skipped the toddler bed!!!!

***********************************************************

In baby news, we are planning on putting the crib up this week for the baby! VERY exciting! I can't wait! Thursday I will be 35 weeks, which is a day past how far along I made it with Addie, we can't wait for that milestone to be past! We should be totally prepared by then, clothes and diapers are bought, crib will be up, and carseat installed , we are ready... but hope to make it a few more weeks! VERY exciting!

I now have 3 appointments a week. I see my regular doctor once a week for a regular prenatal appointment, I see an MFM twice a week for NSTs, one of those appointments also has a doppler ultrasound, and next week, I have a growth ultrasound... so I am busy, and being watched very closely! It is reassuring and stressful at the same time! NSTs are usually about 15 minutes, unless baby is not active enough... I always THOUGHT she was really active, but always seem to be stuck there longer because she isn't doing much! I think she is just a stinker already and doesn't like to be spied on.

A bit of miscellany

Addie going "nuh nigh" in the laundry basket... with her "bee-kit"


Checking out her hair pretty in the mirror... she loves checking herself out in the mirror... don't know where she gets that from....


Addie sending out her troops to see if the coast is clear to escape her bedroom after bedtime.

It was SOOOOOOOO hard not to lay on the floor laughing!

**********************************************

I got my ultrasound report back from last week, and everything is looking great! She measured one day behind... which is not a surprise! haha! At the time she weighed 9oz... probably about the same as Addie, I had my ultrasound a week later with her, and she weighed 10 oz. Little Bug measured around the 37th percentile for her age. Prayers answered :) AND Thursday, we will be half way done with this pregnancy! Ahhhh!!! Where is the time going?

Randoms and a Birthday Party!

(if some of these pictures are sideways, I don't know why, I did not upload them that way!!!!!! Hopefully they will straighten out soon!)

Randoms first :)

The other night I told Addie is was time to get her jammies on... she ran away from me, ran into our bedroom and slammed the door. I went in there and she was on our bed, reading her book, saying "nah nigh" it was super cute :)




Then the next day, I told her it was time to get changed into her jammers, she ran to her room, got all of her laundry out of the hamper, put it on her rocker, and laid on it, saying "nah nigh"




Then tonight.... I was tryin to take a picture of this towel (I am making hooded towels and selling them on etsy) and Addie grabbed it, put it over her baby, Kimberly, and said "nah nigh" Poor Kimberly is going to suffocate... unfortunatly, as of late, Addie likes to sleep like this too! I do not like it!



****************************************************************

A birthday party! And not Addie's!

This is Addie's friend, Jack. His birthday is 4 days before Addie's!

Here he is about to blow out his candles.


Not so sure about it....


Now that you mention it! This looks fun!!!!


Big Blow!
(and how awesome is that cake!?!?!)


He was playing with the smoke... and stupid me cut him out of the picture!


Addie loved their cat!!! She ran around yelling "kitty, kitty" looking for her everywhere! I think this is Muffin.


Fun with Silly String!!!!!!


Jack loved it!






He loved it A LOT!






Addie loved the fish tank!




Here she is looking for the cat! They have a "doggy" door to the basement... I missed the picture, but Addie stuck her whole head through the hole!


Does she want to lick the fish?
(sorry for all the fingerprints Julie!)




I think she thought that fake fish was real!


Awwww


2 Year picture possibility? Since I still don't have one!


If only I were sitting in front of her!


She liked to look at the party hats... but not to wear them!




Addie was loving the balloons... put not when they came near her!
Forced hug from Jack!


Awwww


That balloon had better not get too close!!
(she kept calling them "balls")

I think these are sweet






Look how much taller Jack is!
