So much pumpkin pressure!

These are our pumpkin creations! I know, I know...we get really extreme when it comes to pumpkins and you've never seen anything so beautiful and you wonder where all our talent comes from. Well, no worries. You're not the only one who feels that way. :) Happy Halloween!

Californ-I-A

So, where in the world was Robbie and Kara this week? We went to Anaheim to visit Robbie's aunt and uncle and it was a blast. Here's a few highlights of our trip... Doing good... Oh no....Here it comes... No, it's not real. :) But Robbie was generously acting out what I wanted to do. But it never quite happened. :) I hate flying. I don't know if you can see it, but we flew over a few California fires. Scary. Beautiful! Wish you were here! So much shopping, so little time. (And so little things that fit my belly!) :) I got a massive ear infection right before we left, and it would flare up so bad at night. But oh, the wonderful feeling of hot washclothes on my aching ears. :) In one particular parking garage, we realized that the building right next to us was a genuine sweat factory!!!! I thought the U.S. got rid of all of that around the 1950's!! Does anybody's kids need a job? I know where they can get one... Robbie and I decided how we were going to do our baby's hair if it was a boy... This picture is significant because this is my don't take my picture face. So, after Robbie ignored it and took my picture, I took the camera away from him. And I forgot I had the camera...so we don't have any more pictures. :) oops. And then to top it all off, we got to go see the Tonight Show with Jay Leno!!! Yeah, Reese Witherspoon was totally there!!! It pretty much rocked. Word of advice when visiting an NBC studio...wear a sweater! They keep it sooooooo cold in there!!! :) All in all it was a really good trip. :) It was a much needed break. Thank you to all who looked after our life while we were gone!!!

Poor kid...

I guess I just needed to laugh today because this video also cracks me up. You know you want to watch it...who doesn't like to laugh? Don't you just love it when your kid has discovered a new word and you have no idea where they learned it? If you do then watch this...good times...

Prepare yourself for some reflection...

I saw this on my nephew Connor's blog, and it really made me laugh, so I thought I would pass on the laughter. And I know that my baby is still growing in my tummy...but this song makes me not be able to wait until I have a billion kids running around the house, and I can sing this song at the top of my lungs too. :) Enjoy! The Mom Song...

Flu flu go away...come again another day...

Robbie and I have taken turns being sick the last few days. My kitchen is a mess, our bed hasn't been made in days and I'm pretty sure Robbie looks like a mountain man. :) However, I added more songs on my Ipod, did some online Christmas shopping, and watched the sun come up and go down from my bed. Of course that was all in between naps and groans like we were going to die. Poor Robbie had a temperature of 102. And because I know you're all concerned -- I think the worst is behind us. Just wanted to thank mom-in-law for the calming orange juice and food, and Marina for helping Robbie teach our classes, and mom for all the medical advice, and dad-in-law and Tyson for the blessing. HUGE HUGS AND KISSES TO YOU! Thank you Thank you Thank you. I've decided that family is the best cure for the flu.
