Gingerbread House

We made our first gingerbread house. At first I had big plans of doing it from scratch, but decided that was just too complicated for being 9 months pregnant. Instead I bought a kit at Target and it was just as much fun!

39 weeks

Yesterday marked 39 weeks. There are now 6 days until my due date. Oh my!

Time to Decorate

It's very exciting to have a tree inside the house! The boys had a blast decorating it. Of course everything was all very low and several ornaments on one branch!

Finding our Christmas Tree

Every year we go and cut down our Christmas tree. Last year Ryder fell asleep in the car so he missed out on the festivities. This year he didn't miss out one bit and had a great time.

We ended up going to two different places. The first place was a little complicated in the tree cutting process but we were there long enough for a few photos.



We then went where we went last year, and where we'll continue to go. It's the same owner of the pumpkin patch we go to. We got to see all the animals which of course the boys loved.

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving and even got a couple photos. So much for cooperation but their cousins were running around outside and they wanted to play too!

online shopping

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm actually already done with most of my shopping, but this is the beginning of the shopping season for most. If I wasn't expecting 3.0 any day now I wouldn't be on top of things as much as I am.

I recently learned from a friend about ebates and I LOVE it! I'm a big online shopper and by going through ebates first I get money back. Paid for shopping, awesome! I'm pretty sure I'm the last person in the world to hear about it, but if not check it out.

This morning I got 10% back for shopping at Kohls. All you have to do is go to ebates first and then find the store you want to shop at. Such a great way to get a little money back this holiday season. Enjoy :)

snow day

I don't know what's going on with this weather but last week we had a nor'easter. They called for a dusting with nothing sticking and our area got 4-8 inches! We searched for snow gear which was collecting dust and headed outside.

36 weeks!

Oh my, technically 3.0 could be here in 1 week. I'm hoping for a little longer than that, but either way it will be SOON! I haven't taken any belly photos recently so took a couple during our snow storm yesterday. They predicted only an inch or two with nothing sticking, but instead parts of our town got 4-8 inches! Crazy that it's only the beginning of November.

trick or treat

Despite having no power from Hurricane Sandy we were still able to trick or treat. The town had canceled their even on Main street, but we never go to that anyway. However we did find out after coming home that the town put another phone call out highly discouraging people from going out in their neighborhoods. Whoops. They really should have called earlier. The call didn't come in until 4:15/4:30 and we left at 4 so we would get home before dark. The kids had a blast and we made sure to stay away from downed power lines :)
