5 month pic

I know.. I know.. I look tired. My pics all look like this now. 

But here is me, now 5 months prego. 

Happy Halloween!

This year since Deric and I were in our house, I decided we needed a jack-o-lantern. Deric had never carved a pumpkin in his life, so I needed to take pics of this first time experience. We also enjoyed watching "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown", something Deric had never seen either!

The pumpkin's guts

Our finished pumpkin named Jack. Deric wanted him to look like Charlie Brown's pumpkin. 

Me with Jack.. pay no attention to me looking really tired. BUT, notice my awesome T-shirt!

My fall trip

This past weekend I journeyed to Wisconsin to see some college friends and to go to my dream concert. One thing you must know about me is that these two artists, are my top two favorite artists. As you can imagine, I have nothing bad to say about this concert. Granted, I was close to the youngest person there, but it was AMAZING! Needless to say, I did cry a couple times. :) 

My friend Angela and I also went to an apple orchard. It was so cold and windy!! But it was fun doing something "fall" and seeing that trees really do change colors. Here are a few pics:

I'm eating the best apple ever!!

Picking an apple from the tree.. however a lot of them were rotten

Here I am holding a pumpkin in the pumpkin patch. 

It's a girl!!

Well our dr. apt on Tuesday went fabulous!!! Deric and I were both amazed all the things they were able to check... 4 chambers of the heart, measure the arm and leg bone, check blood flow, 2 eyes, 2 nostrils.. I mean the list keeps going!
I had the feeling it was a girl, but you never know... Once she started looking "down there" I just knew it was a girl. :)
So little little Sophi Jean is growing and is healthy!
Speaking of growing.. for about 2 weeks now I've been feeling Sophi move. It first started when I was taking a nap on a Sunday afternoon and woke up to this weird feeling. I changed positions and the "flutter" happened again! I guessed it was the baby, but wasn't sure.
So the next night at dinner, while eating Red Lobster :), it was the same "flutter"!
Well to take you to current time, Sophi moves pretty much all day long. Anytime I'm sitting or eating, she's active. She's really enjoyed the music at church and her favorite meal thus far is popcorn with a decaf pumkin spice latte from Starbucks. :)
Luckally I've been able to share the excitement with someone. Last Sunday, the 12th, Deric felt her move for the first time. Even though it's not exactly the same, I'm glad Deric can experience Sophi's movement! She is happy!
Tomorrow we are going to Babies r us to register. We found our bedding at Target, but are picking out other items at the giant baby megastore!!
I'll attach pics of Sophi's ultra sound soon. (Meaning.. when I get home)
