A Monkey Update

As some may have notice, Riley affectionately calls our little no-named girl, Monkey.
I went to the doc yesterday and I gained a whomping 4 lbs the past two weeks! Yikes! That brings my grand total to 15lbs. I'm told that's good. I still have the Thanksgiving experience so we'll just see how disciplined I can be around all the goodies.
I am 32 weeks and am measuring at 36 centimeters! I became a little concerned wondering if I was carrying a large dinosaur instead of a baby. But without getting into the yucks, I have extra fluid according to my last ultra sound and the docs not worried so neither am I. We're looking at December 21st or 22nd for a due date! The time has flown and I have been very blessed with, I think, a rather uneventful pregnancy. With only one throw-up on record (because I smelled olives) and only one purchase of maternity pants, (I great have sisters and friends who have donated clothes to 'the cause') I consider myself in a quite blessed and happy state.

Halloween!






Albeit a diabetic's worst nightmare, I have been able to stay away from the sweets pretty well. My poor husband has never at the adventures of trick-or-treating because of his being raised JW. But we will not judge him. Now, he and our little "monkey" will share their first trick-or-treating experiences together!
If you're confused, Kaylene is The Devil Wears Prada (ask her), Liv is Alice, Gavin was first Woody then a pirate due to snug fitting the first go 'round, Riley a Korean man wearing Korean clothes from Dad's mission. And can I just say he nearly started crying when I had to put eye liner on him. I mean come on! Just like last year when he was a cheerleader. Maybe we'll do a no make-up costume next year. And I was a gumball machine.
Thanksgiving, here we come!
