Surprise!!

Ok, some of you I'm sure know but for those of you who don't, Mike and I are expecting baby #2. My due date is May 30th. We are all so excited. At first it almost didn't seem real. I wasn't sick, or nauseated. I did get hot flashes and food didn't taste good at all but I just thought my body was being weird. This pregnancy has been totally different than when I was preggo with Kaiden. It did feel real when we went to our first doctors appt on Nov. 5th. We heard the heart beat and they also did this ulta sound.
We found out on Sept. 23rd. It was actually crazy because that morning Kaiden was crying and he kept saying I want my baby sister. I told him he didn't have one but he had brother Koda. (That's our dog) He had also told me a few weeks before that, that he wanted his baby sister. Well that night was when I found out I was pregnant.
If you ask him what mommy is having he will tell you a baby sister. But he also tells me, mom you not sick, you not pregnant. I don't think he quite understands yet. I also went to the toy store and bought him a doll and of course he had to have a pink stroller. I thought this would help him get ready for the baby. Well, it back fired. I asked him the other day were his doll was and he said, "I hate it, I threw it in the garbage." Sure enough, that is what he did. I had to pull it out. He still doesn't have anything to do with it but he pushes his toys almost everyday in the stroller.
I'm excited to see what he does when the baby arrives. I know he will be a great BIG brother.

Happy Halloween

Kaiden carving his pumpkin. The first thing he did when he pulled out some seeds was put it in his mouth.


He wanted to carve a scary one!

Grammy and Grandpa Jim came to stay with us for Halloween.

Goofy kids!

Kaiden tells grammy she is a princess so she dressed up as one for Halloween.

I made mummy dogs for the kids and chili for us.

Getting ready to go trick or treating. They were so excited!!

Our cute cowboy!



Grandma Cindy taking Kaiden trick or treating

We had a fun Halloween. This was the first year we didn't make it to the pumpkin patch. Either Mike was out of town, it was to cold or it was snowing. My mom took Kaiden to a farmers market and she let him pick out a pumpkin.
Also, grammy and gramdpa Jim came out to stay with us. They've never been out here during Halloween. They helped Kaiden make some sugar cookies and they decorated them. Grammy and Kaiden carved a happy pumkin since he had already made a scary one. Grandpa Jim went with us trick or treating and grammy stayed back since it was cold and handed out candy.
Kaiden had so much fun with his friends. He loved going to all the houses for candy. It was so fun to see him so excited!!
