Leo's Halloween PJs

Fall Carnival




This weekend, we went to a fall carnival in Allen. Leo enjoyed playing the games to win candy, jumping in the bounce houses, and sliding on the slides.

36 Weeks



I saw the doctor Friday for my 36 week check up. I am one centimeter dilated and he has dropped a little. This is the same as Leo was at 36 weeks, and five days later we had a baby. But, this is definitely a different pregnancy. I have been having cramping and contractions - not always together - for over a week now. They come and go but never get into a consistent pattern. I alternate between being frustrated and philosophical about it. One way or another, he will eventually make it into the world, I know! The wait just gets long sometimes.

We spent yesterday doing some small preparations - getting diapers, wipes, bottle supplies, and a new base for the carseat. Oh, and Toddly got his flu shot - Leo thought that was fun to watch!

It is raining here today, so we took a short walk to enjoy the wetness! Something we don't see very often these days.

Enjoying the weather


Leo and Daddy enjoy the nice weather. Leo wears a patch 2hrs/day to strengthen his eye that has an astigmatism.

Baby Celebration


My seeMOMMYrun girlfriends hosted a lovely baby celebration in mine and Henry's honor last Saturday morning. It was a "Fill the Freezer" party, and my gifts included twelve meals from Super Suppers that we will enjoy in the hectic weeks after his birth. We had pastries and drank coffee at Danielle's beautiful home.
