Baby Belly!

So here it is!! I'm not a big fan of having my picture taken, especially when I am feeling extra huge! This picture was taken on Thanksgiving when I was about 31 weeks pregnant. I have 2 more 2 week appointments and then I will start going in to see the Dr. every week until our little boy decides to come. I'm definitely feeling very pregnant these days but it still doesn't seem real to me that we are having a boy. Yesterday I washed all of the baby clothes and it was so weird pulling baby boy clothes out of the dryer. We are super excited but I don't think it will set in until they hand him to me in the hospital...and that day is coming up fast!!!

Someone is excited for Christmas!!

October

October was a very busy month for us!! In May of this year we put an offer in on a condo and we finally closed at the beginning of October. It was a long and very frustrating process but we are soooo happy that everything worked out and we are slowly getting settled into our new place. I will put up pictures as soon as things are more put together. I can't promise that it will happen any time soon though. Hopefully before baby #2 comes. :)

I am starting to realize how horrible I am at taking pictures of Kaylee. When she was little we used to take pictures of her all the time. Maybe it is because she is older and more active and doesn't stay still long enough to take pictures....or maybe it's because I am lazy...or a combination. All I can say is that I am grateful for friends who have amazing camera skills and take pictures of Kaylee.

Here are some of the pictures that we managed to take this month!

We went to the Air Show at the beginning of the month. Kaylee loved it but for days after it she kept telling us how loud the planes were.

We celebrated Kaylee's 2nd birthday! I still can't believe I have a 2 year old!!

Showing off her pretty flower crown that she got for her birthday from one of her favorite people in the world Ellen.

We met up with some friends and did some exploring at Sea World.

We went to the New Children's Museum with our friends Ethan and Ellen.

We took a trip to Bates Nut Farm. Kaylee had a blast feeding the animals and playing in the pumpkin patch. We definitely want to make this a yearly tradition. It is such a fun place!!

We spent lots of time with good friends. Ethan was kind enough to help Kaylee eat her yogurt. I love watching these two play together!!

Overall, it has been a month full of fun !!! I can't believe that it is already November but I am excited for the holidays coming up and for more fun times spent with family and friends!!!
