Halloween

 Little Miss Red

I practiced once on Kassidy to see kinda what the wolf was going to look like. Tripp liked the idea, but wouldn't let me paint his face. Also he hated his tail! Wore it for about 20 minutes. Since I couldn't find anything for me to be the grandma, and Tyler to be the Axe Man,  I decided we just needed to do something else. 

 Kassidy loved being Little Red Riding Hood, but kinda wanted to be a basketball player with Tripp and Dad!

 And of course... Would it be Halloween without pumpkin carving??? You never see the old school pumpkin face. Growing up all I ever did was the triangle eyes & nose with a grin. Now the pumpkins are so extreme!! Thank goodness that both my kids wanted easy Jack-o-lanterns! Kassidy was able to do almost all of it by herself!

32 weeks

32 weeks and the belly measures 41! What are you kidding me? 

Being pregnant has its pros and cons. Well the pro of course to being pregnant is that you get to have a little bundle of joy(in my case 2) in your arms after living through the 9 months of cons. I do love it when you can finally feel the baby move, but when you have twins.. It's gets a little crazy in there.

Sunday I was getting ready for church, and none of my shoes would fit... I ended up wearing some flats, but by the time I got to church they where cutting of circulation! I guess it's flip flops in November.
It feels weird about setting their names, because Kassidy was switched 3 days before we had her.. But I needed names, just in case they decide to show up while Tyler is in Indiana... Baby A is going to be named Ashlyn. She is the calm one in my belly and doesn't cause much trouble. Except for that little detail of constant pushing on my pelvic bone!  Baby B will be named Jordyn. She is the one that is always on the move, and she likes to grind right into my hip. All day long... she never sleeps, or maybe she just sleep walks. Defiantly gives the doctors a run for their money. Every time I'm hooked up to any machine or ultrasound, she kicks or punches it. They always have the hardest time finding her heart rate, or at least keeping it on her long enough to get it. It will be interesting to see if that's how their personalities are or if they do a total switch..

 Oh and another con... My memory has gone out the window! I forget anything and everything. I left an amazing carmel apple on the top of my car and drove off of course. Then just the other day I took chicken out and left it in the microwave till I found it the next day. Gross right? Anyways, let the count down begin! 4 more weeks!!!

The Pumpkin Patch!

The pumpkin patch is always SO FUN!! I love watching Kassidy.  And this year Tripp had just as much fun. Tyler couldn't get him out of the sandbox. (Gross, I hate sandboxes!) We have went every year since we moved to Ohio, and next year I'm sure gonna miss it.

 The wagon ride is always a big deal.

 Tractors everywhere! Tripp had a blast. 

 This place has the coolest slides ever. I always go down them, but decided maybe not this year... :)

 Kassidy and her little friends Hannah & Ellie

 Picking the corn in the corn maze. Some corn tastes sweet when its fresh, but that corn was freaking NASTY!

 Grandpa would be so proud!

 Yes he wanted to jump off

 Thanks Tyler for cutting off the top of my head! At least the belly made it in there though.

 This is his new smile, you always have to say cheese right?

 His favorite tractor

 We always love it when daddy is able to come and hang out with us. (I think I enjoy it the most though, cause then he gets to run around chase crazy Kassidy and Tripp!)

 This picture took like 5 minutes, cause Tripp couldn't decide which pumpkin he wanted to sit on. Weird kid.

 The whole time we where there I kept smelling funnel cakes, but for 5 bucks... No thank you. Don't worry, I made them when we got home. And they where amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

30 weeks, Cookies & Commando!

 Im 30 weeks now! WOOHOO! Only about 6-6.5 weeks left!!! I can do it. (At least thats what I keep telling myself.) The girls are growing great, they measure right around 3.5 pounds, and as of now both babies are head down. Lets hope they stay that way so I don't need a C-setion! We have a handful of names picked out, but nothing set in stone. I wish I just had their names picked so I could stop calling them A & B!

Halloween/ Holidays = Yummy cookies!! Tripp lasted about 2 cookies. (ate both)

 Kass always loves to help in the kitchen. And decorating cookies is her pride and joy. My favorite part was when Tyler came in and asked if he could eat the good ones... (I laughed!) After being married 6.5 years you think he would know the answer to that question.. Next he asked dead serious, "Why do I always get the rejected ones?" BAHA!!!!

Last but not least... My commando son! So gross!  I didn't know they started that young! Tripp has hit the stage of not letting me help him with ANYTHING! And its driving me nuts! Sometimes I'm in a hurry and just want things done, but NO. Not on his watch. At least in this picture the underwear isn't inside out.(which happens a lot.) Just the other day Tyler noticed Tripp wasn't wearing any underwear under his jeans. First of all, OUCH!! Second of all, we had just went for a bike ride. Wouldn't that have hurt? And third, he went half the day without any underwear.  When we asked him about it, he ran off laughing... Oh the joys of having a boy!

TYLER WHO?

I know its way over due, but sometimes I'm just not in the mood to blog. Well Tyler got home last week, and it has been amazing!!! I swear I slept for 3 days. I guess it finally caught up with me that I was tired. The kids could not have been happier! It brought tears to my eyes just seeing how happy they where. Tripp became Tyler's shadow, and would not leave his side.  

While they waited for dad!

 Of course we had to do something fun right away! Tripp has to wear his goggles, even though they are cheap and he can't even see out of them. 

Dad got to get her off the bus! Her smile was from one ear to the other!

 Passed out in the daycare at the gym! I love that kid!

She cracks me up! 

And I don't have a picture to go with this, but Im 29 weeks now! My belly measures about 36, so yes I'm HUGE!! Just the other day I got on the scale to see the damage...(no one should ever do that!!!) And to my surprise the battery was dead! :) I'm sure thats probably a blessing.
