And so October comes to an end...

My gosh where has the year gone, is it really November? Are people really already asking for Christmas ideas!? It seems that the year has gone so quickly but at the same time so many amazing things have happened this year. We were in Napa Valley 6 months ago, we had a very full summer and fall with visitors and activities and we have a crazy 3 year old running around and now here we are in November and we are expecting another baby!! Surprise! :-) I am due on May 24th and we are very excited! I'm very glad the 1st trimester is just about done, only a few days left and I'm starting to get some energy back and start to feel normal again. We will be finding out what we are having in mid-December so I can start to plan and decorate and clean out rooms and closets. Good news is I have literally saved every single baby item that we bought for Maya. Bad news is I now have to sort through them all instead of being able to go buy new things. LOL. Maya is in the stage right now where she LOVES babies so I just know she is going to be the best big sister ever! Here's one of my first baby bump pictures, I didn't take many pictures last time so I'm trying to do better this time around. This was taken today, I've had to tell my co-workers the news already as you can see I can't hide it anymore!

Maya was a butterfly (Barbie Mariposa to be specific) for Halloween. Here are some adorable pictures of her. We had alot of fun this year carving the pumpkin (well dad carved the pumpkin while Maya helped me make pumpkin cookies which she wouldn't even eat) and of course she loved trick or treating. I can't wait for the holidays this year, it's going to be alot of fun :-)
