Happy Halloween!

We had such a great Halloween!!! Our day began with a little Halloween arts and crafts party. We painted spiders, made leaf collages, colored Halloween pages, made pumpkin cookies, and played forever! At night we went to Mike and Bre's for a little trick-or-treating. Jackson was OUT OF HIS BODY excited!!! He LOVED going door to door saying "trick-or-treat." I don't think he even cared about his candy. He just liked the experience. After trick-or-treating we sat in the front yard passing out candy and letting the kiddos play. What a wonderful day!!!

Painting their spiders


Concentrating so hard!


Getting his hands dirty...usually not a big fan of that but had fun with it anyway!


Emily, on the other hand, would have painted her whole body if we'd let her. She LOVED it!


Eli LOVED getting his hands painted! He was right in on the action!


I wish I could express to you how excited this kid was to go trick-or-treating. He was freaking out in the car on the way to Gavin's. So funny!!!


Mmmmm...the kids enjoying some yummy pizza before filling their bellies with candy.


Had to have one pic of Jack by himself all dressed up.


The Fish Fam Halloween 2008


The Airforce Pilot and Army Soldier holding hands ready for action...I mean, trick-or-treating. They look so fierce:)


Gavin the Pilot, Jack the soldier, and Jobe the dinosaur


I wish I could express to you how over these kids were of getting their picture taken at this moment. But isn't it precious?!


The two monkeys: Sam and Eli. I could just eat them up!


Trick-or-treating


Not sure about this...maybe it's the candy's doing...


Where'd the candy go??? It actually went into Jack & Tatum's buckets. They stole all the candy we had for tric-or-treaters.


The ladies: Amanda, Heather, Bre, and Me


The tired parents

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little boy. ...

The Cup

I walked into the kitchen and spotted a blue solo cup on the counter. The following conversation played out in my head: "Whose cup is this? Which kid took out yet another cup? Didn't I ask them to stop getting a new cup every time they needed a drink? What is wrong with these people? They obviously don't ever listen to me." In the midst of my frustration, I realized the cup was mine. Oopsies. Good thing I didn't speak those words aloud. I went on with my life and my to-do list leaving MY cup right where I found it. I am the grown-up and can leave my cup where ever my grown-up heart desires. I came back into the kitchen a little while later and saw the cup again. I completely forgot the cup was mine so I rehashed the above conversation in my head. I was baffled by who left that cup on the counter. And then I remembered it was me. Again. Y'all, I did this two more times throughout the night. It was like Groundhog's Day but I was the only one celebrat...

Baby on the Floor

Yesterday I was putting a couple of things in the closet for the baby of what is going to be the nursery. Jackson was helping me and asked me where the baby was going to live. I told him where and he was excited since the room is next to his. Later that night Scott and I asked him where the baby was going to sleep and he responded by telling us that the baby was going to sleep in his room. When I asked him where in his room he told me, "on the floor." Scott antagonized him telling him that the baby would not sleep in his room but in the nursery. Jackson got mad at him and yelled over and over again that the baby was sleeping in his room on the floor. Oh my...it starts already!
