Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween to all!

I'm going to a party tonight, and doing the whole trick-or-treat thing with Rowdy

He's going to be Charlie Brown

Because he has no hair.

My husband who shall remain nameless is going to be a hunter with me.

That's a difficult one.

No puppies yet.

Oh yeah, Tally is going to be Snoopy.

She has the easiest costume out of all of us.

No, I will not make out with you!




Ps. I'll have some pictures of tonight for you tomorrow, so check back when today's tomorrow is today

Baby Bump!!!

She is 100% for sure preggo! I didn't even have to follow her around with a pregnancy test.

I'm taking guesses. Why don't you all take a stab at it, what have you got to lose. She is due sometime between October 29th and November 2nd. I know these pictures don't do her the justice she should get, but she is huge, and I mean about to pop. So, go ahead leave your guess, how many she'll have what day, and what gender they'll be.

The unfair part is her gestation is roughly 62 days from start to finish, she'll not only have all of her babies in one shot, she'll have them all nursed weaned and out the door within 8 weeks. she'll get back to her girlish figure and pre-pregancy weight about 9 weeks after birthing who knows how many babies. I'll bet she doesn't even get stretch marks.....Bitch!

I am super excited, it's literally any day and she is for sure ready, she is pretty calm and I have never seen her sleep so much in her life. I'll keep you posted on her progress.

So go ahead leave your guess, you know you want to, hey the winner might even get a pup!! Not really but wouldn't that be a cool prize! If you know of anyone in the market for a puppy send them my way. They'll be ready to go the week of Christmas. She has the best temperament of any dog I've ever been around. She doesn't shed, she is super fun and cuddly, great around kids and babies. and I think her lil' ones will make great family pets.

If you've ever loved a baby

whether it be a son or a daughter, a niece or a nephew or anyones little one please take a minute to read this

Last week I went back to what I consider home and spent a day with my mother-in-law. She was telling me about a fund raiser for a baby boy in her ward. He was born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, SMA. He is only a month younger than my baby, so it hits where it hurts.

If you have any extra prayers to give, please go here. My heart breaks for this little family. They need so much support.

Every day is a struggle for him. Breathing, is hard because his little chest is atrophying, and he is fed by a feeding tube. His parents say he is still only living because of the miracle of fasting and prayer.

What really took me by surprise was when my mother-in-law was telling me there are quite a few people who judge these parents for keeping their baby alive. I just can't imagine this, because if my baby smiled and cooed at me and had a spark in his eyes like this little Karson does I wouldn't think I could let him go either. Doesn't a spark mean you are still willing to fight.

There is going to be a benefit concert put on by Brenn Hill. (he's country) and a live auction. All the proceeds will be going to this family to help with the expensive medical bills they have incurred. If any of you have anything or anyone who has anything to put into this it would help greatly.

These parents are so great, they've never complained on their blog and they just appreciate every moment they have. They are so courageous!

I haven't been able to get this baby out of my mind, so I hope this helps me. I'll post more about the concert when I know more.
