Preschool Halloween Par-tay

I signed up to help with the Halloween Par-Tay. It worked out great as we brought in the Purple Jello Jigglers in Ghost & Witches and Pumpkin bread muffins that were made in Pumpkin & Ghost trays. The other mom brought in a game and juice boxes with little treat bags. Here is Emmi enjoying her treats:

We weren't sure if Emmi would put on her costume since she had yet to try it on for me since I made it but when we got there she was wearing it. I have a few minor tweakings to do.

Only 2 more parties left before Trick or Treating. Will we last?

Dr Appt

I have the 22+ week check in today. Everything is normal, belly measured 22 1/2 inches. I have put on a total of 14 pounds so far. The baby's heartbeat was 154. So all good. I really liked this doctor as he was newer to the practice. He called my hip discomfort when exercising by its name, symphysis pubis pain. Basically I just need to suck it up so looks like I will be headed out to run this afternoon. They did ask if I wanted the flu shot which I declined due to the package warnings which state testing has not been done on pregnant women. The hospitals here have sanitizer everywhere and masks to protect people especially since kids under 18 are not allowed in hospitals at this time.

Big girl

Here is a picture my friend Ashley snapped of Emmi at a birthday party over the weekend. Check her out if you are in the Charlotte Area and need photos. http://ashleyhortonphotography.blogspot.com/
We may have her do prego shots and post baby shots.

Emmi has now been sleeping in her big girl bed for about 3 weeks. But she still likes to nap in her crib. When we set it up we figured we would just have it as an option but she jumped on it right away. She has only gotten up twice in the morning to come see us otherwise we have to go get her.

She also likes to have dance parties in the car. It comes in handy when we are bringing in the groceries or want to grab the mail. Here is a little video of her playing in the car while listening to Silversun Pickups:

Riverbend Pumpkin Patch

Here are some pics from the Pumpkin Patch that we went to over the weekend. It was beautiful weather.
The ride to go pick out our pumpkins and the one Emmi picking out hers.

The tractor to play on.




They have a bunch of slides there. Here is one that Emmi and her Daddy went down together on.

Cowgirl

Our preschool has a access only website that the teachers will post pics up of the kids. They uploaded a whole bunch. This week was cowgirl/boy week so we borrowed an outfit and bought one so she could be dressed in style. So yes I am going to be that Mom. :)

This was Tuesday's outfit with the class hat:

This was their pony ride of the day today:

Here she is doing her favorite thing, Reading:

Just the cool kid on the playground..
