More Halloween Fun!

Quick Mommy and baby update:
I saw the doctor last week and he said everything is looking and sounding great. Yay! We discussed the ridiculous amount of contractions I am having and he said his best guess is that I am a busy mom who doesn't know how to sit down and put my feet up every once and a while. (How does he know me so well?) I am working on doctors orders, but find it quite difficult to be honest. I usually waddle into bed at night because my back hurts so bad! He said if resting doesn't stop my contractions, they will have me come in for testing to see if I am at risk for early labor. But, I doubt that will happen as long as I sit once or twice a day. I have also been feeling quite blah again! I will have a couple of good days and then a couple of bad days where I feel like I have morning sickness all over again. That kind of puts a cramp in my life as I don't have time to feel sick right now! With work, school, church, family, holiday preparations, and baby preparations, there is plenty to do! Overall, things are good and we are both healthy. We are all are anxiously counting down the weeks until we get to meet our little princess!

Speaking of plenty to do, we have been keeping up with our Halloween countdown calendar and have been having more Halloween fun this week!
On Sunday, Adam helped me make Oozing eyeball meatballs to go with our pasta!
We made our traditional "Ghost Feet"!
We baked and decorated Halloween cookies to treat our friends and teachers with!





We played pumpkin bowling! The kids played this happily for about an hour until the pumpkin cracked open!



We had another ghostly dinner!
Only 3 days left until the big day!!
