Happy Halloween!

Jim left work early today and we took Emily to the Rockaway Mall to Trick or Treat.

After that, one of Jim's schools was having a Halloween party. They had a dj, food, candy and prizes. Emily had so much fun dancing with her Daddy. We all had such a good time.

Trick or Treating at Lafayette Village

Today we took Emily Trick or Treating at a local outdoor outlet mall. Emily got a lot of great candy. It was a little cold and the camera battery died, so we didn't stay long. But we managed to visit all the stores that were giving away candy!

36 Week Doctor Appointment

Today, I have my 36 week appointment. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going, but I guess that happens when you are chasing around a 2.5 year old!

Anyway, nothing new to report. Weight gain and baby's heartbeat were good.

My bags are now packed and we are starting to get really excited!

Next appointment...November 1st

Pumpkin Picking....again

Today we took Emily to Heaven Hill Farms for our annual pumpkin picking. It was a lot of fun. Emily got her face painted and we picked out a really nice pumpkin and decorations.

35 Week Doctor's Appointment

Today I start my weekly appointments! At this point in the game, there is really nothing new to report. I was tested for Group B Strep. No big deal.

Its funny, I'm actually more scared around this time. I guess maybe because I KNOW what to expect. Or maybe it has something to do with having to stay in the hospital by myself this time. I'm not really sure what it is. Of course, there is a lot of excitement thrown in!

Next appointment...October 24th

Birthday Dinner #2

We took Emily with us to meet my parents at the Black Forest to celebrate my birthday. I love the Black Forest and usually use my birthday as an excuse to get there!

As usual, the food was great and we all had a wonderful time!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Emily & I went to her Crocodile Rock class and then ran a few errands.

Tonight, we are dropping Emily off at my parents house and then Jim is taking me to dinner at my favorite restaurant...The Melting Pot.

Pumpkin Picking....

We took Emily to Fairfield Gardens to look at the decorations and the Halloween area. There is always fun activites to do there and this year was no exception!

33 Weeks...

I had my 33 week doctors appointment. Still nothing new to report. Weight gain good, heartbeat good, blood pressure good. Its surprising to have good blood pressure this pregnancy. With Emily it was always high, even up to the minute I delivered her!

Next appointment...October 18th

First sick appointment....

Today I had to take Emily to the pediatrician for her first ever sick appointment. Not bad for almost 28 months old.

Anyway, she has croup. Hopefully it will clear up soon.
