Thanksgiving--

We had a great Thanksgiving!! The food was so delicious.. I wish I could go back for seconds RIGHT NOW. My Mom did such a great job with everything. Here are some random pictures from the day!
Enjoy!

My Brownie Ganache Torte

Ali's AMAZING pumpkin cake


The girls- (my sister playing the part of a pregnant woman.)

My fam- (I love this pic.. too bad Ezra cut off Tony's head.)

And ONE more preggo pic for fun!

As you can see we had a great time... Jenna, Ali and I ate so much and were so pooped by the evening that we ended up laid out on the floor. (Sorry no pics were taken.)

Brownie Ganache Torte with Raspberries



I'm planning to make this yummy looking dessert to bring to my Mom's for Thanksgiving! Two people in my family are on gluten-free diets, so this recipe is gluten-free. I got the recipe from Betty Crocker. I hope it turns out yummy!!

I'm SO excited for Thanksgiving!

I WANT THIS!



Ok- why do I SO want this? It's overpriced if you ask me.. and I don't need a popsicle maker that works in 7 minutes! Plus.. it's not even summer anymore. I guess it's appealing because both of my boys are popsicle LOVERS. It was an ad in Family Circle that got me.. great advertising. :) You can even make these with filling.. like orange flavored with a cream filling! YUMMM. You can find it on the Williams-Sonoma website.

Don't know why-but I WANT THIS!

37 WEEKS-FULL TERM!!

Thebump.com says...

At week 37, your pregnancy is considered full term, meaning baby is likely to thrive after birth. Baby spends these last weeks in preparation for the outside world… meaning careful refinement of the blink, suck, inhale and exhale. Meconium, which you’ll probably find in the first diaper, is accumulating in the intestines. If (okay, as) you worry about giving birth, consider what it’s like for the little one. During the journey out of your womb, baby will produce more stress hormones than any other time in life.

The fact that I'm listening to the -Sounds of the Seasons- channel and have already had my 1st Christmas light spotting scares me a little bit. Why? Because that means Christmas is almost here .. and that means that it's REALLY almost time for my little boy to come... and that is going to HURT. A LOT. I'm super excited though. I can't wait to ... have our 1st Christmas together as a family. Dress my son in Christmas outfits and snuggle him under the glowing Christmas tree!!

the 'my nose is running' face.


This is the face I've seen for almost the past week.
What a cutie though. I'm ready for him to be back to his normal healthy self.
