Recent Pictures

Here is a pregnant picture of me and Jaime, my sister-in-law. We are due on about the same day, so we'll see what happens. I think I am going to be induced on my due date, the 19th, if I haven't had Maggie sooner. I am far from ready, as far as preparations go, but we're awfully excited to get her here.
These are pictures from a recent family get-together. It was supposed to be a shower for Jaime, but it ended up as more of a general sort of party with Halloween crafts. Sorry, Jaime!

Here are a few pictures from a little Halloween party at my friend's home. She is so creative and fun! It was over UEA, and my kids couldn't have been more excited. Eli was a little intimidated by the older boys, I guess, and didn't really go play. In fact, all three of my kids were a little shy there. And a little more interested in the treats than most. :) Jonah's cowboy costume was Eli's at the same age. It brought back good memories.

This is Tori at a little friend's birthday party, being presented as one of the princesses at the ball.

Our sweet neighbors let the kids come over and pick some pumpkins from a big pile they'd harvested. They had a beautiful garden again this year. The kids decorated them with stickers that I always get for preschool, since they're so easy.
