October/November Update

What an amazing year it has been. It's crazy how fast time goes by but we celebrated the 2-year anniversary of Alexa becoming part of our family on Oct 20th. I can't even believe how much she is growing up and that she is going to be a big sister soon. I also can't believe how these weeks are flying by in my pregnancy and we only have about 4 weeks to go! I'm ready to get this "giant" baby out but I'm not sure I'm quite ready to be a mother of two yet:) I have a hard enough time updating this blog with one child, I don't know how I will ever get it done with two. Hopefully though there will be a post in the next couple of weeks announcing our baby boy's birth! That just seems so weird to even think about and we still have so much to do. His nursery is pretty much done. I have a shelf to hang and then put his name on the wall and we will be done and then I will try to post a picture. We still have to install the carseat and I have a lot of monogramming to do for him but we are slowly getting there. Now if I can just get my Christmas shopping done...I at least got the tree up and the stockings hung but I don't know how much other decorating we will do this year with the baby coming so close to Christmas. Anyway, here are a few pictures from October.

Alexa trick-or-treating in downtown Westerville with her buddies.

Alexa was a Vietnamese "princess" this year.

As you can tell, Alexa loves putting on Mommy's lipstick.

Alexa on her first pony ride...I wasn't sure how she would do but she loved it!

It took awhile but she finally put her hand in.
