Pumpkin carving

We've carved pumpkins every year since Jeff and I were married, but this was the first year that Graham really participated. He requested triangle eyes and teeth in the mouth. He was very engaged until we got to the gooey center. He thought that was "yucky"...which didn't surprise me at all. We had fun!

Before.

Oh no...

This was the yucky part.

The finished pumpkin. He's so proud.

Finally finished...

I've been waiting on the big "E" for two months, and I finally got it on Friday. It's not exactly what I asked for, but it still looks good. It took so long to get it that I don't want to send it back for being incorrect. Anyways, Jeff helped me hang the last few things today. I'm pretty excited that it's ready for her...that must mean she's almost here! There is a little blank space...plenty of growing room.

what's been going on

This morning I downloaded all of these pictures onto my computer. I didn't realize I had so many on there...it was fun to look through them all. A few months ago, I kept Raylee Jo and Rex for a few weeks. They are such sweet kids! It was a crazy few weeks, but we all had fun! The two little ones loved getting in the car seats. They would even buckle up some of their babies...so sweet.

When I was a kid, my mom took me to the circus every year. She wants to start this same tradition with Graham and soon to be Eloise. Man, the circus is so entertaining...even for adults. We had such a great time! Graham got a little light up toy. Between the toy and the elephants...he had such a great time!

More to come...Graham's awake now.

so soon

If everything goes according to plan, we'll be welcoming Eloise on November 2nd. It's only one month away...yay! Can't wait to see and hold our sweet little girl.
