Oct. 27th Pumpkins & School Pics

We had a very busy Sunday today, first we had my 9th grade girls over from church to have lunch and decorate pumpkins and then had a party for one of Charley's friends at the pumpkin farm.

 

 I love fall, have I mentioned that? I didn't pull any of my decorations out until this morning and didn't even pull out 1/2 of them, but a few pumpkins here and there and my new front yard pumpkins will have to do this year, I promise to go all out again next year when I'm not so pregnant!

Charley painting her pumpkin, pink of course

The both love arts and crafts, like their mama!

Brady had basketball practice so by the time he got home we'd cleaned up everything, so I allowed him to pick 3 colors, he's colors of choice, orange, green, and pink as well

 

Lexi the birthday girl!

 Love these two!

How sweet are these 3 buddies with their 3 little sister besties! I love that God put friends in our lives who have the same age children!

 

       The girls from the party! Totally disappointed I bought Charley the cutest fall outfit on Etsy and haven't gotten it in yet. (not to mentioned I ordered it 6wks ago, boo)

Brady's 1st grade picture, he is handsome and pretty at the same time! Love him!

Oct. 25th 29wks

29wks today, 15in, and almost 3 lbs already! My How big is my baby this week app, said an acorn squash, I've never bought an acorn squash before so I'm not sure if they come any bigger than this but this was the biggest I could find. I know it looks a lot smaller than my eggplant from last week, but don't worry, Corby isn't shrinking!

 

 

Oct. 24th School Trunk or Treat

It was Science Night at school and along with their science stuff they decided to do a trunk or treat. I was required to be there, knew the kids would be with me, and they were in need of one more car so I decided to volunteer. I thought the kids would have fun and more importantly it would be a great serving opportunity!

 

I've always strongly suggested or planted in Brady's head costume ideas each Halloween b/c I love the kids to match, however, this year I decided to let him choose! Of all the costumes out there he picked Scooby Doo, he's been a huge Scooby Doo fan for years, I believe it was two years ago he got the Mystery Machine van and figurines for Christmas. So Charley's costume was super easy, Velma! Although Daphne is probably my favorite sometimes she can be a little too sexy looking.  As far as i costume for me, I found a purple sweater and green scarf at Target, stole Charley's Ariel wig and cut bangs, and wore one of her purple headbands and bam I was a pregnant Daphne! As of this morning I still didn't have any decorations for the car. I was able to throw something together pretty quickly wasn't the best but it worked somewhat (my flowers I made wouldn't stay up). 

 

Would think I'd learn my lesson with Brady, even though he is skinny enough to wear a 5 at times in the waist but mostly a 6, he's in 8s pants, but medium costumes 8-10 still don't fit! He was still super cute!

 

It was 80 something degress tonight, we were all super hot, but here are the kids ready to pass out candy!

 

 

Oct. 23rd Belly Dancing & Check Up

WARNING!!!!

IF BARE BABY BELLIES SCARE/BOTHER YOU, STOP NOW!

 

Corby's favorite time to get his move on is when I'm sitting on the couch at the end of the night, after kids are down watching TV. It's one thing to feel the baby moving its another to actually see it! Just this last week I started being able to see him move and it seriously makes me giggle, even snort a little, lol! Knowing this is my last pregnancy and realizing I had never gotten a video of it before, I pulled out the phone and started to video it and boy did Corby put on a show, just watch...

 

I had my 29wk check up today with my regular doctor and I had another check up with the specialist. This is the first time in all three pregnancies that I have not gained a pound not even an ounce at a visit, guess that's what two tummy bugs in a one will do for you! So that was exciting, still holding on to 35ish pounds! I haven't mentioned this before but I have developed the most nasty disgusting varicose vein for the first time ever, it started out just an ugly vein on the outside of my left leg and then turned into a bulging zig zag nasty thing starting now at my crotch area going all the way to my knee. Last visit I just asked my doctor about it but this time just to help me feel more at ease (if that's possible) I showed her. Luckily yet sadly its normal! So to fix it I've been having to wear maternity compression tights for the last 2wks at work and anytime that I'm on my feet a long time, they are by far the sexist things ever, NOT! If it wasn't for my pride I'd take a picture of it and my vein but I'll just let you use your imaginations! The tights seem to help me the ease the pain and discomfort of the vein but man they themselves are the tightest most comfortable thing ever! Praying it will go away afterwards but if not I've already warned Ryan surgery or whatever they do to veins WILL MOST DEFINITELY be a must if he ever wants to wear shorts again or be seen in a swim suit, lol! Corby is all worth it though!

Right after my check up, I headed over to see the specialist and once again I got a great report! Corby is measuring right on track, fluids are good and all things that I was high risk for seem to be just fine God is GOOD ALL THE TIME! Here is the latest pic of my little man, how cute his this pic with his hand on his head, thinker or flexer?

 

Oct. 20th State Fair of Texas

For the past several years we have started going to the fair with Ryan's parents and cousins. Usually the entire gang is not able to come but this year all of us made, even Ryan came :)!

 

We definitely know how to pick the most crowded days. We usually go during the OU game but this year I was out of town so we decided to wait until the last day of the fair and man was it crowded, despite that the kids had a great time!

 

 Cori and Charley have the best ride!

 Brady, Cori, Charley, and Brady, can't wait for Corby to join them

 Waiting in line for face painting, we waited at least 30min

 Normally Brady and Braeleigh are all about getting their faces painted but this year someone mentioned it being too baby and so both of them were out
