October 15th

I just read that tomorrow (10/15) is officially Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Whether it is legit or not, I will treat tomorrow as a remembrance day. I have angel babies and it makes my heart hurt so much that I really can't express it in words. But, tomorrow I will remember my angel babies and also remember how lucky I am to have this wonderful, beautiful, happy little guy.

My new boots!

I bought these rain boots yesterday. Now if it would just cool down a little and rain, I could wear em'!

Just great?!

I got bit on my foot by something last weekend. I'm not even sure when it happened. I know it itched really bad at one point. And the next thing I knew there was a red line coming from the bite mark. This could have been Friday, Saturday or Sunday. I can't remember. It doesn't look good, but I feel fine. Today I decided I better have the doctor check it out. Let me tell you this, you never want your doctor to say this, "Well, I have never seen anything like it before!" ((all excited too!)) He even sketched it. He said most insect bites come with pain & you know immediately you were bit. I basically told him that I am too busy to notice if I get bit by something. Since I'm still nursing & not having any problems with the bite (swelling, fever, etc...) he decided we would give it 2 more days before he prescribed antibiotics. Luckily I do feel ok, I really wish I knew what bit me though. Especially since little Munch is minutes from crawling. Now I think we need to get our house sprayed regularly. UGH, another expense! Well, keep your fingers crossed that the red line doesn't move more. Oh, and John thinks this will now make the baby Spiderman.

Pumpkin Patch!

We had a great weekend and to top it off... it's not over! I have Monday & Tuesday off! Hooray! Saturday we had amazing weather. It was clear, warm & raining. Sunday we started the day with macadamia nut pancakes. John made them for us and they were delicious! The last time we had them was in Hawaii. ((side note: Saturday John said we needed to take a family trip there again = awesome)) Then we took the baby to the pumpkin patch. This cool pumpkin patch is at the end of our street!!

((2 more side notes - 1. John is showing me the pumpkin butt crack. 2. that same picture confirms I have green/MURKY hair color! yuck!))

Mama-ma-mum-mum-mama-ma

He says "mama" now! He started a few days ago. I'm not so sure he knows it is me exactly, but everyone I say that too says that he does. Regardless, it is so sweet to hear. :)
