All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth....

Well, for the moment it is just one that he is missing. The other is very soon to follow I am sure. This first one we have been waiting on for weeks! Anyone who has seen Christian has seen his tooth slowly moving itself on top of his other front tooth, looking more and more scary. Finally after threatening to use pliers, Matt got the tooth out and Christian got $2 from the tooth fairy. His adult tooth is already about a quarter of the way in!The boys both got haircuts from Daddy. That is the profile pics. We were getting ready to go to the Scout Spaghetti Supper. Also in here is our first snow of the season and the kids with their nicely cleaned and semi organized closet. Thats pretty much it! Have a great Thanksgiving!

Twilight movie...

I went to the midnight showing on Thursday with my friend Geri. We sat in the two handicapped seats in the back row of the lower sections which were great seats. We're both pregnant, we thought that counted. The house was packed full. The previews started. The crowd screamed and cheered when the Harry Potter preview showed. Then cheered again as the movie started. There was lots of cooing, sighing, giggling, awwing, etc when Edward first showed up, Carlisle came on screen, and the kissing scene. That made the movie even more fun to watch though.
I liked the movie a lot. An Oscar winner it is not but who was really expecting that from a teen romance saga?? I thought there were a few things taken out , dialogue mostly, that I would've liked to see but how long could the movie have been if everything I wanted to see was in it? Too long probably. It was fun to watch, I will see it again, I will buy the DVD when it comes out and I'll probably even read the books again at some point. I can't wait for the second movie which they totally set up at the end. I think they will maybe get a bigger budget and do some better effects and the characters should be developed more with all the introductions now out of the way. Love the soundtrack, still thinking about the movie 3 days later.
Never could've been as good as the book but still fun to see parts of it on the big screen.

24 Weeks - beginning 6 months!


Here I am at 24 weeks. (I never know which picture to use so there are two, I know they look the same...) I see the doctor today so we'll learn how much I have gained...I know the baby is definitely feeling bigger by how much stronger the kicks and punches are getting! I read that my uterus is about the size of a soccer ball...that is kinda what it looks like I am carrying around under my shirt these days. Jack wanted in on the picture taking action so there is also a picture of Jack... *Update - So I am 140 now...the doctor is having me get another sonogram because they didn't see everything they wanted in the last one including the spine, the baby was in a weird position or something, so I can double check on the girl thing which I am excited about. Also coming up in the next couple of weeks, the glucose screening, nasty drink that you try and chug...otherwise baby and mama doing well and growing right on schedule.

From almost 5 weeks ago...

I would've put this up after I got it but our scanner wasn't hooked up and our computer does stupid stuff sometimes...anyway, here are the sonogram pics...not the easiest to decipher but in the first you should see a head and profile of face, neck, shoulder and arm going up towards the mouth. The other one is more fuzzy, like a motion shot, there is a leg, body, arm and head lying on back, profile. I will have a picture of me at the end of the week for the 24 week shot. I am feeling pretty good, but there are a lot more aches and pains than I had with the previous two.

HALLOWEEN!

We fed the kids dinner, got them in costume, took some pictures, and then Matt walked them around the neighborhood while I passed out candy and watched "The Village"
A pleasant night...
I love their muscle faces and superhero poses...
