Halloween & Dr. Update

Well, as expected my Dr. called back with the results from the lab on our miscarriage.  He says that everything came back inconclusive.  Which means that they can not determine whether or not it was a fetus or a blood clot.  But, I don't need to have a professional opinion.  I already know that it was a baby.  And it makes no difference to me to to hear it from my Dr.  But they did confirm that I still have a bladder infection so I have to get on antibiotics.  I hate taking any type of medication while I'm pregnant but I guess I have to do what I have to do.  My Dr. says that antibiotics are very safe to take and that it will have no effect on my pregnancy.  I really hope he is right.

Moving on.......

I have been terrible about getting ready for Halloween this year.  As you know things have been a little crazy and for some reason decorating for the holiday has been the last thing on my mind.  Kaiden came home from school on Tuesday and wanted to decorate so I told him that he could and that made all of the kids happy.  I have also been slacking off with getting pumpkins to carve so on Halloween day I stopped by the grocery store and bought, basically, the last 3 pumpkins they had.  I also bought some stickers because I was really not up for the mess and hassle of carving them (I'm a little exhausted as you can tell).  I did go and help out in Keira's class' Halloween party.  It was very short but the kids had a blast.  Then they did the school Halloween parade.  Keira took Kelsey with her and Kelsey was happy as could be about that idea.  I tried to get a picture but this is all that I got.
You can see the excitement in both of their faces.
I decided that I needed to be better about making the holiday fun so I planned to do a fun Halloween dinner. So when the kids got home I put in a Halloween movie (because movies make them happy) and then after the movie we decorated pumpkins.
Kaiden didn't want to ruin a shirt while painting so he decided to go shirtless.  Check out those big muscles!

Keira took her pumpkin decorating very seriously!

Kelsey thought that the black was Kweepy!



Here is the final result.  They were all super excited about them and I was happy because the mess was easy to clean up.

Kaiden's

 After cleaning up the pumpkin mess I sent the kids to play in their rooms while I got dinner ready.  I don't think they had a clue why but this is what I came up with.

Olives, dijon mustard & ketchup

Lil' smokies

Corndogs with chow mien noodles

Chicken fingers and yummy punch!

Gummy worms in ice

Jello in straws

Their fuzzy reaction.  Not so sure what to think.

Eric was working in Pinedale and didn't get home until really late so he missed out on all of the family stuff but I think I passed the fun test and the kids loved everything about it.

Then we got dressed up and drove around town and went trick or treating.
Harry Potter, Super Girl & Cat Woman
 All in all it turned out to be a really fun day.  But, to be honest I am ready for a slow and relaxing weekend.  I feel like I've been hit by a train.  Yay, for weekends!!!
