October Round-Up

Here is a look at October through pictures!

Canon's 1 month check up...yep, she wrote that he was adorable!

My work - Denver K-Life, had a Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser. We may or may not have eaten 3 plates each.

snuggle time with daddy. love.

he genuinely enjoys bathtime, yay!

smiles

and we are loving the beautiful fall weather, taking walks and watching the leaves change colors

the beginning of what was supposed to be a great weekend in new orleans. short story is we missed our flight (not our fault), canon and i went standby to tampa with the assumption we could get on a plane to nola from there, only to find out that flight was overbooked. so, a night in a tampa hotel and we were headed back to denver....

....good news, canon was awesome and slept almost the entire time and we're headed to new orleans over MLK weekend when we'll get to spend quality time with friends

these pictures make me laugh - he did not want to open his eyes or get his picture taken

yep, not happy.

however, if we needed those pictures to get this one, i'm glad. i love this picture!

a sweet gift from a landlord - possibly because he felt guilty for raising our rent without forewarning us?

woot. he is sleeping in his crib every night.

meeting tori!

giants. that's really all i have to say.

discovering his toys

first bottle! yay, i got to go to work for like 5 hours and get a lot accomplished on a friday that aaron had off school!

halloween/fall fest at aar's school

ha. ej, on the left, did not like that doughnut. lucas, on the right, could not get enough!

he'll always know our love for nola!

he is just the cutest.


Other exciting October news: 
I started a Couch to 5k program. It is an app on my phone and I love it. It starts out with intervals, for example week 1 was run 60 sec, walk 90 sec...week 2 was run 90 sec, walk 2 min, etc. and this very nice woman just comes on over my music and tells me when to walk and when to run. It is just easy enough that I'll do it again, but works me enough that I am sore the next day. Time to get back into those pre-pregnancy jeans! 

Looking forward to November!

Baby Boy #3!

We are expecting baby boy #3 and since I documented a good amount of my pregnancies with the older two, I want to at least start off giving this one the same treatment! I am due May 25th, though he'll probably come around the 18th by c-section. We found out in my 18 week appointment that we were having a boy and I can honestly say I've been super excited since. With two older brothers already ruining, I mean running, the house, I'm happy to bring another boy into our crazy. This pregnancy will always be remembered by having to have my gall bladder removed at week 11. As soon as I hit 6 weeks I started having intense gall bladder pain. I've dealt with gall stones since Canon was born, but they were always singular events that would pass in about 4 hours, and this pain was consistent and all day/night long. The doctors I saw encouraged me to manage it with diet and hope to get to 16 weeks before discussing surgery. I tried everything, which pretty much meant eating noth...

22 weeks (5 months)

this kid cracks me up Just like every mom, I say this every month, but I can't believe he is already 5 months! I'm not going to lie, this event has really caused me to kick my mommy-ness into gear. It is time to get this kid together, ha! So this week I have been really intentional about making sure we get lots of tummy time in, practicing rolling over, lots of time in the bumbo chair and on the couch sitting up and being super silly to pull out those giggles! And honestly, we're having the best time! Not that I wasn't doing these things before, but I had a bit more laid back approach assuming that he'll just learn things on his own. And he will, but now I'm just more up in his face pushing him along! We got over being sick, for the most part, at the end of last week. Since he had been sick, I'd been rocking him a lot more, going into his room during naps/nighttime almost every time he cried, putting the pacifier back in his mouth, etc. Well, let me t...

His and Hers

Aaron has officially started his second year of seminary! To commemorate, I thought I'd paste the answers to some questions we were both recently asked. A way to get an idea of both sides of our life right now. My answers: How did you spend your summer?  We had the best summer! Aaron took Hebrew in June and July, and I had my first summer as a stay at home mom. We went to the beach, pool, the library, visited Chicago and came to Alexandria twice!!  What are you most looking forward to (in your 2nd year at Seminary)?  The “cloud” over the 2nd year is getting ready for our vicarage. We’ll meet with the placement director in October and will find out the location in April! So there will be lots of hypothetical conversations, wishlists and prayers leading up to that!  Otherwise, I’m excited that we’ll be just minutes away from our church and school. I hope to get our whole family to matins more weekdays than not and Canon will begin a first communion class this ...
