Our little Teddy Graham

I have been meaning to put this on our blog for a long time and finally got around to scanning it in. when I had this ultrasound I was 9 weeks. The Nurse Practitioner doing the ultrasound said, "I got a great picture of your little Teddy Graham. And she did, and it looks exactly like a teddy graham or a gummy bear. So there he/she is. We should have our 20 week ultra sound a few days before Christmas and will have more pictures then.

More Imagination

Levi's little imagination has just exploded in the last few weeks! Besides his imaginary friends we have had all of his favorite trains following our car when we drive places. He will even tell us which ones are there. Usually it is Thomas, Gordon, James, and Skarloney(?).

Yesterday we drove Noah to work at the book store, and all of a sudden Levi said, "Mom look out for the Giant!." Then today on the way to church we had the trains following us, and Levi insisted that Noah swerve to avoid the Corn Dog, and then the Hamburger in the middle of the road. He is so hilarious and gives us a good laugh on the long roads that lead away from our little neighborhood.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We had an absolutely fabulous halloween this year!!! Halloween is always an exciting time of year for us, because that is when we got engaged. Noah hid my ring inside the pumpkin that I was carving. So we love carving pumpkins. This year, I thought that Levi would be into the whole ordeal, and he loved it, but he thought that the pumpkin guts were really gross!! Here is a picture of the 4 of us on pumkin carving night at Noah's parents house. A side note about Ruby's outfit. She hates wearing socks. She pulls them off. Then when I notice and say, "Ruby where are your socks" she laughs at me, and then I tickle her feet. So this day I put her in tights and she tried to pull them off all day long!!

At the beginning of September I started asking Levi what he wanted to be for Halloween. I really wanted him to be a pirate...but this year, he knew what was going on and had an opinion. He wanted to be Mario. Which turned out to be a relatively easy costume to make, and he looked so adorable!

Ruby, on the otherhand was a victim of the hand-me-downs. We had so much going on the past few months that I just never got around to making her the elephant costume that Levi wanted her to have. So the night of my niece Bella's dress up Halloween party, I dug through the baby clothes and found Eyeore. She looked pretty cute, and brother loved it!

Here is Levi sitting with our pumpkins before he went trick-or-treating. We were lucky this year to have daddy home for Halloween. It has been a few years since he didn't have to worry about school or working that night. So he and Levi waited rather anxiously to see other trick or treaters on our road. Noah took both the kids around the block, and then Levi said that he was done. Ashley and two of her friends also came, she had a killer costume. We love having her around!

Noah is always creative with his pumpkins. The year we got engaged he carved an engagement ring, last year I think that it was Harry Potter, and this year he decided to carve our fetus in his pumkin.

And finally, Levi and I made Halloween decorations one day, exactly like his cousin Hannah's he was so excited, and was sad when mommy had to take them down.
