Happy Halloween




I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!! I dressed up a bit for work. Wanted to be Frankenstein, but it didn't quite work out. So I was a zombie instead. Wish my eyes were as red as they look in the picture, that would have been cool!!! Didn't win the costume contest, but got third prize for my cubicle. Probably 'cause I was one of about 4 who decorated!! Right now we are passing out candy, but there aren't nearly as many as I thought. So who wants the leftovers???

For anyone else who follows the blog- ummm, well ok just for the fun of it

Well, you have already seen the photos, but I figured maybe Carol or somebody else might look at these so I will post the photos of Jazzy I got yesterday. She is pouting and grumpy from the looks of it and has adorable chubby cheeks and a little dimple on her chin from the look of it, but it is too hard to say.... it does run on Rich's side of the family, so it is possible... :) I'll post nursery photos later. It is almost done with the furniture, but not the decorations....

Are we having fun yet?

As part of our efforts to update the house a bit, we decided to have the floors redone. Several phone calls later we thought that $2500 was a bit much to pay. So we decided to do it ourselves!! Thanks Home Depot!! Took awhile....


Maybe 'cause Martha thought it could be done with a Dremel tool???
Fortunately Kevin prevailed and got a REAL sander!



See?!? He got it all sanded down just fine!



And now we have a beautiful, shiny floor!!! Probably not as nicely done as if we had paid $2500, but I think it looks just fine and Kevin did a great job!!!

I went to Philips today for another ultrasound and got some photos of Jasmine. It is exactly 2 months from today (of course it could be early or later).... It is unbelievable how fast the time has gone and now I am sure the time will go by incredibly slow!! :) I love her little nose!! (I think it looks like mine and she definitely has my lips!!) Cheeks, well those look like Richard's and the technician said she has hair on her head and eyelashes too! I am sure she'll look nothing like this when she arrives as she is filling out with the chubby-ness that newborns have, but I can't wait!


One more photo for you to see. I will send the rest in an email.

The nursery was painted this week and the furniture needs to be moved up to the room. I dread the task of putting the crib together, but once it is done it is just a matter of putting clothes in the dressers and gathering items from the 4 baby showers I am having.... I can't imagine there is enough stuff for people to purchase for Jazzy, but all the teams and work were insistant on having a shower so here we go....
