Breydon went trick-or treating as a cheeseburger. He didnt really get the point of what he was doing (obviously), but he enjoyed riding around the neighborhood in his beloved wagon. He liked the candy that crinkled, but I dont think he as a clue what it was.
I was extremely amused with myself for having him be a cheeseburger. Maybe next year he can choose his own costume! Luckily Ali still wont have a choice. Maybe she'll be a hotdog...
Breydon is getting big so fast. It makes me sad!! But the other day he actually fell asleep on my chest like he did when he was tiny. I miss that so much. I know that in a few months Ill have another snuggly baby around, it just makes me sad that we are past that (for the most part) with him. Hes so active and independant. I love that about him.
And today Michael and I got a little bit closer to being ready for Alison to come home. We moved the big dresser into our room where she will be staying for a while. And we (Michael) put up her crib! I folded and re-folded all her clothes... took inventory of what she's already got... what she needs, ect. I am planning to have quite the fun time on black Friday. ;)
In one week Ali will be "viable". That helps calm my nerves a little bit. I want her in there as long as possible though. And so far we are on track for that to happen!! Unless she's huge... in that case she may need to be a little early. At my last appointment she was measuring over 2 weeks big. So Dr. Wheeler is having me do the glucose tolerance test to see if I have gestational diabetes. I can guarantee you that I dont- I borrowed my gramma's One Touch glucose reader for a few days. I returned it sooner than I intended because I was starting to obsess about it. But anyways, I tested after meals, and before meals, and and and and........... it was always fine. Never close to being concerning. I think maybe I just have big babies...? I mean, look at their daddy! He was over TEN pounds at birth, and not overdue at all! So, that test is on the 16th.
We are getting there!! Slowly but surely!
Heres some recent pictures that I love.

| I just thought this was sweet.... my little boy. <3 |

| He was just sooo pitiful this day! He was cutting a top toof and wasnt very happy about it. |

| Ive been wanting to get Breydon one of these for a while now. Its a iPod/iPhone case. It covers the phone completely, and covers the home button he he can play with my phone and chew on it, and whatever, without hurting it. (Like he did my FIRST iPhone!) Since I got my iPhone, I havent needed my iPod touch. I cleared all of my things off of it, and put a bunch of Breydon's apps on it. I loaded it up with all his kids music, and his episodes of Mickey Mouse, and its now usable! He loves it!! Its so handy when we are in the car and hes mad, or when hes bored and we are out to eat with friends. I think we may love it more than he does! |

| This is a sucky picture and I know it. Its a screen shot on my iPhone, of a home-made video that my sister took of an ultrasound. Pshew!!! Its Ali's little face looking out at us. You can see one little eye, but the other one is covered up by some shadow. This was at 21 weeks. |

| This is sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiightly outdated... because this was taken at 21 weeks and some odd days. And we are 23 now. But its pretty close to how things are now. Maybe a tiny bit different in shape. Ill update the belly pics during the next post. Probably after I find out the results of that glucose test. |
