Busy month!

Well the Cook family has had a busy last 2 weeks......

Before all my issues came up we were able to go and see Keegan's last marching band competition of the year at BSU.  Schools from all around were there.  The Weiser band ended up placing first in there division!! Congrats to Keegan and the band.  Keegan looked like a marching pro!  Keegan was also able to get his deer the last day of the season, unfortunately Cameron didn't get his.

James was lucky enough to take a couple days to go fishing with his dad Flip. They met up with our neighbor who runs a fishing guide business.  They had a great time.  James was able to land 2, he lost a few more plus some gear.  He was nice enough to bring my Dad one of the fish.  Dad said the fish tasted great!!

Well I have made it to 25 weeks!!  Only 15 more to go.....   The contractions are still here though.  Somedays are better then others.  It doesn't take much for me to get tuckered out.  The pills have pretty much been doing there job. I almost went a whole day with out taking one, but by the end of the night I started to feel them enough to take a pill. I haven't felt the need to go back into the hospital so that is good.  There is still the possibility that they could turn into pre term labor. They could just go away or I could deal with them for the next 15 weeks.   I enjoyed being at home and got lots of sleep, sometimes up to14 hours in a day.  I am back to work now and pray that things will all be fine and the contractions wont flair up.  



25 weeks

In other baby news my sister Kristy and her husband Darrin welcomed a baby boy early Saturday morning!!  Trenton Daniel Longoria.  My sister was in labor for a whole 2 hours!!  They had a nice home birth.  How freakin lucky is she?!!

Well K.C. has been keeping me pretty busy.  The other day I went into his room to get him from his nap and he was standing there buck naked!!  He pointed to his blanket and said "wet, peed"  yup sure enough there was a big wet spot.  But the diaper and nighty he decided to take of were perfectly dry. I guess I should consider myself lucky that is all that he did in his crib.  

So this year instead of carving pumpkins I let K.C. paint one.  Letting him paint is always fun.  I have no problem with letting him make a mess!  he actually did pretty good though.

I decided to get creative with a pumpkin this year to and made an all from scratch pumpkin pie.  The crust came out pretty good.  The pie did to but since it was made straight from the pumpkin it was a bit grainy for me.  I think next time I make one I will try to puree it a bit more and see what else I can do to make it more smooth.  But it didn't go to waist!!  I also roasted the seeds!  That is my favorite part of Halloween.  I love fresh pumpkin seeds!

For Halloween we went to the trunk or treat held at the Parma MotorVu.  K.C. was dressed up as a BSU bronco mascot.  I waited to long and our choices were a bit limited.  But he was still cute!!  He did pretty good, he wasn't to sure of holding his bag but once he realised that they were putting candy in it he was not letting go! 

On other baby news I was able to find the swing I wanted on craigslist for cheap!!  K.C. decided that he would test it out for his brother.  Now all I really need for the baby is some more clothes.  With what I have got and some hand me downs from my sister in law it looks like he will be good for NB and 0-3 months.  I would like to get some cloth diapers for the boys to use while I am home.  So if anyone was wanting to get us a baby gift that would work :)  Other then that I see my midwife again on Friday! 

Oh and K.C. got a new pet!!!  He got 4 lil gold fishies!  And loves them a lot, his favorite thing to do is feed them.
