Ten on Tuesday

1. I'm falling apart. I now have a stabbing pain in my right  lower back, probably from limping from the left big toe fracture. This evening I added a fat upper lip to my list of complaints, when Zane got a little too excited during signing time and hit my face with his head. I cannot handle my body hurting anywhere else. Sigh...

2. Our trip to SEMO this weekend was going great, right up until Saturday evening when I starting throwing up my socks, which lasted all night and into Sunday. But it was still great to see everyone. Zane loved playing with his cousins, specifically Levi, who is just his size, and Adeline who showed him the ropes of Grammi and Papa's.

 Playing in the tent!

3. In exciting news I am halfway through my pregnancy, hooray! This baby is sitting incredibly low, hence the back pain, and me being way too uncomfortable for this early in the pregnancy. I need to schedule the baby's ECHO, but am dreading it and putting it off. No we aren't any closer to having name ideas, still got nothing.

4. Zane and I went to buy the baby his first new clothes yesterday. In case you were wondering baby boy clothes still aren't as fun as baby girl clothes, but it is much easier to not go crazy buying stuff. Still lots of stripes, bears, dogs, ect. I did get a new little alien outfit, some long sleave onsies, and little boy pants. Why didn't I just have another summer baby? Oh right I thought it might take longer than a month to get pregnant, obviously not the case.

5. Here is a little preview of Halloween. Zane finally has gotten over his fear of his Halloween costume and has tried it on numerous times this week, stomping and roaring around the house. He also has taken to looking out the window for ghosts, I don't think he has spotted any yet, but who knows!

6. It's October, which means it is Cardinal baseball time here in the STL. Friday night's game five was one for the ages, with the biggest post season comeback ever! I had thrown in the towels in about the 5th inning and headed to bed with Zane. We were both woken up by Zach's cheers of joy coming from upstairs. I was highly confused, since they were loosing hard when I headed to bed. It was a very exciting game and everyone in STL is buzzing about it. 12 in 12 baby, go Cards!
7. This weekend we have family photos, hopefully somewhere with beautiful fall trees. I am not excited about being photographed pregnant, but such is life. It's strange to think these will be our last family photos unitl baby boy joins us! Now onto what we should wear....hhmmmm???

8. I'm sick of the presidential election. I'm ready for the adds to be over and the debates seem like a huge waste of time because they both are saying opposite things, so one of them is lying, but no one calls them on what is actually true. I will vote, I think everyone is ready, let's just get it over with already!
- That could possibly be crabby pregnant lady talking, not sure.

9. How about those Sooners!!!! I loved watching OU vs Texas this weekend. It was old school Sooners, looking like they new what they were doing. Very exciting stuff. I'm sure the let down is coming, but I will enjoy it while it lasts!

10. Lastly, Zane, who has always called me Mamma, started calling me Mommy this weekend. I think it has to do with his cousins calling me his mommy, kind of like how he started calling his Daddy Zach this weekend. I wasn't sure how I would feel about it and turns out I'm not a fan. I like mamma much better. Somehow Mommy sounds a little winey and less loving. Sure it's adorable in it's own way, but I like Mamma better. Random thought, but there you go. Needless to say Daddy doesn't like being called Zach either.

Bonus: Adorable photo of the week, Zach ready to go shopping yesterday!
