November???



I can't believe November is almost over.  I was thinking about something to post about...nothing too exciting, just living our little life here in Albuquerque.  I only had 2 pictures from the month of November.  My parents came over Veteran's day weekend and we had a great visit with them.  My mom and Ryan made Gingerbread cookies.  And true to my Mom's Kindergarten teacher self, she even sent Ryan on a little Gingerbread man hunt when they escaped off the cooling rack.  

Ryan is still constantly making us laugh by the little phrases he comes up with.  We have to be VERY careful what we say, because we know we will hear it again, coming out of Ryan's mouth.  The other day he gave ME two choices, a happy choice and a sad choice of things I should do...something he obviously hears a lot.  

Andrew is all over the place.  I am sure he will be our child that has all of the broken bones, he usually is sporting at least one bruise on his face and I think he gets a bloody lip at least twice a week.  He is so different from Ryan in that he gets into EVERYTHING.  We didn't have to toddler proof much with Ryan, but Andrew is teaching us how to do it now.  He is so sweet and I think we treat him like he is 6 months old still, but oh well.  Soon enough we will have a real baby in the house again and he'll have to become a big boy then!

My pregnancy is going great.  My only complaint is my nasty varicose veins developing on my legs.  My doctor finally told me that I had to start wearing support hose all the time, or they will get worse and not go away.  It is the most uncomfortable thing in the world to wear nylons ALL of the time.  But I know lots of women have it a lot worse, so I will try not to whine too much about it!

We are excited to go to Denver next week for Thanksgiving.  We have so much to be thankful for!

I think that nylons are comfortable. I would be thrilled if my doctor ordered me to wear them around the clock.

Ahh, that totally stinks about the nylons!!! But I guess if that's the worst thing that you have during your pregnancy, then like you said, it's not too bad! Post a prego picture. I miss ya lots! (Oh, and I'm hoping that since you are having a girl, she will be a little smaller for you at delivery time!!!!!!) Sorry Spencer, but girls are suppose to be a little smaller than boys :)

Yikes, sorry about the nylons. Hope it gets better.

And it was fun to see pictures of your parents. They are so cute.
