Legends + Costume Preview

Before the Legends of the Phog game, we had lunch at Granny's. The kids really loved their ice cream cones! Thanks to Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Cleo for taking all of us to the game. It was neat to see all of the old players!

Can you guess what Buddy will be for Halloween?

I had a bit more pain than usual last Thursday and Friday. I went in Friday afternoon, but it turned out that everything is good. Unfortunately, it looks like I failed my glucose test and get to eat a low carb diet until these babies get here!

26 Weeks

26 weeks and chugging along... I have been having some back pain, but I am okay as long as I don't sit too long. Yes, standing makes my back feel better for some reason! Buddy attended a siblings class for kids expecting a new brother or sister over the weekend. It might have back-fired on us because by the end, he was saying, "I don't want a baby!" Well Buddy, guess what? You are getting 2!

Jayhawks & Golf

Buddy went with Drew, Daddy, and Grandpa to the Jayhawks game on Saturday. They pulled off a win, even if this crew didn't get to watch much of the game!! The boys were slightly squirmy!

We celebrated Drew's birthday with mini golf. The kids had a blast!

I loved the golf hats they all got to make!

Here is the big 5 year old blowing out the candle!

24 Weeks & The Zoo

Here we are at 24 weeks, which is also the 50/50 viability stage!! It sounds crazy, but half of babies born at this stage survive! When I get to 28 weeks, the percentage goes up to 80%. My true goal is 37 weeks. That is only 13 weeks away!

We had some wonderful weather this weekend, so we visited the Topeka Zoo (along with visiting gma and gpa out camping and going to 2 labor day weekend parties). We saw one of Gracie's cousins at the zoo! We hissed at him and he gave us a scary look!

I never thought I would let my kid get this close to a mama lion! She was just happy as could be laying by the glass in the shade. Notice the jeans and long-sleeve shirt. We went from 100+ degrees last week to 50 degrees this morning!! Only in Kansas... If you don't like the weather, just wait 5 minutes.

Hunting Buddy

Daddy took Buddy dove hunting yesterday. He had a blast as usual, even if he says he went "turkey hunting."

Some might be wondering how the pregnancy is going. Things are well. The doctors say I am doing great so far. Let's hope it stays that way. I am only really uncomfortable when I eat too much. I have learned to eat smaller amounts more often. It is difficult when we go to a restaurant because I always want to eat all of the food on my plate (isn't that why america is so obese?)!! I will have to get more to-go boxes!
