Oh, and here's a cute picture.

All the Thoughts of a Pumpkin

It is only 9 more days to Halloween the BEST day/night of the year. I have no idea what I'll be which is the opposite of my little bug. She has three costumes. Four if you count the onesy with the spider on it. This weekend will be pumpkin carving and such. I'm still trying to decide if she's old enough to trick-or-treat. I know she can't eat solid foods yet - let alone chocolate, but still who am I to deny her the delights of the night!?! Maybe I'll get Rick to come over to the mall and we'll trick-or-treat there and pick up a toy at the build a bear place. Though....... It may be a good excuse to just take a walk with her in the evening before handing out treats. OH oh oh I just thought of a great costume - a Democrat! we look like everyone else *giggle*

I got the most AMAZING package from Becky Weeks yesterday (Thanks Becky). Not only did she move to Texas, get breast cancer, come to Utah for treatment, have a double mastectomy, have various illnesses cuz her immune system is repressed, return to work (you know she's back logged) AND keep working on her novel, but she made me a beautiful scrapbook/photo album.

Incredible!!!

We also got pictures of the bug in frames from her aunt Kimi - who also had cancer and complications over the last few months. CRAZY.

Anyway, here is a new picture of Kathryn in an outfit given to her by Kathryn (my friend).

Kawaiiiiiiiiiiii

Science Projects

Long time no post, but I have a good excuse and a note from my doctor.

I've been pregnant, however, I am not any more! I have experienced a whole new level of pain . . . EVIL Pain! My epidural wore off for the nasty part right at the end. I felt EVERYTHING! Kathryn will be an only child. A well loved, but only child. I could go off about things now with her around, like how the next most evil pain to birth is breast feeding. Thank Heaven for bottles and breast pumps. Then there is the lack of sleep . . . *hiss* BUT I won't.

Anyway, many of you have asked for pictures and I'll send stills of things upon request, but in the mean time enjoy this little video. Kathryn and I made it today for her Dad.

Turn your sound on.
