Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Everyone!

Kenny and I went to the ward Trunk-or-Treating party.

It was really fun!

I dressed up as a ladybug and Kenny was Teen Wolf. However, since he had fangs in his mouth all the young women in the ward and some of the leaders thought he was supposed to be Edward from the Twilight series. It was so funny, because Kenny doesn't like those books. I love them though! Oh and the young women affectionately call our little growing baby, Edward. They think I'm having a vampire baby! Gotta love the young women! :)

Anyway, we hope you all had a great Halloween!

Family Home Evening

Usually we get together with some other couples on Monday nights and do FHE's together, but this Monday it didn't work out. So, I begged Kenny to make graham cracker houses together for Halloween, like haunted houses. I could tell at first he wasn't thrilled with the idea, but he said 'yes' anyway because he's just so darn nice. I'm so glad we did! We had so much fun, and it was cute because Kenny asked me a few days ago when we'd make more graham cracker houses. I knew he was way too creative not to get into it! :)

Here we are hard at work on our spooky houses!

The finished products! :) Kenny's is on the left and mine is on the right. We had so much fun doing this! The fun thing was that we ran out of graham crackers and the ones left were broken. So we had to improvise. We decided that it made them even spookier looking with broken roofs and all.

And now we eat! I can't wait for Halloween!

The 3rd Trimester...

This week marks me at 8 months. I can't believe I am 8 months pregnant! I have so much to do before this little guy gets here!

I have to say that the 3rd trimester is proving to be more tiring and uncomfortable than the 2nd, and I kinda miss my energy. I've had some weird tailbone issues among other things this last month, but I really can't complain. I think I have it a lot easier than some women. Plus, our baby is healthy and continually moving.

So here's a shot of my 8 month belly! This was taken yesterday after church.

Okay, can I just have one more complaint? I wish people would just smile at me and say 'hi'. Instead they feel they must comment on how big my belly is or they continually ask when I'm due. I think I will make a shirt that says, "Baby boy, due December 19th, and yes he's growing big as well as my bulging belly!" I know people are just interested and trying to be nice, but sometimes I'm just not in the mood. Am I the most horrible pregnant woman ever? I know, I know, I should just smile and not let it bug me, but it's hard!

Our Little (growing) Man!

This post is way overdue, but I wanted to share our ultrasound pictures of our baby boy! :)

This is him at 10 weeks, when the doctor needed to find out how far along I was. He looks like a little lima bean!

22 Weeks!
Profile shot! I think this one is my favorite. He looks like he has Kenny's nose, but like I can really tell. :)

And this last one we like to call, "Baby Skeletor". It's a face shot. It's okay, if you're thinking it looks a little creepy. We feel the same way. But, and I know this will sound crazy, while we were having the ultrasound I swear he smiled at us. I know, I know, he probably didn't, but it looked like it!

Okay, so there's one more ultrasound pic that I really want to post, but Kenny said it's a little weird to post because it's of his "boy parts". The only reason why I want to share it is because it's so funny, and our little man is really proud to be a boy. He's not a modest little boy that's for sure!

Kenny is at work right now and I'm so tempted to just upload the picture and post it, but I won't. If I come back in an hour and post it then you'll know I just couldn't overcome the temptation! :)

Oh, and thanks to all who have helped me find resources to make our blog cute! The new, cute blog will be coming soon! :)

The Spiderwig's

Almost four years ago to the date, when Kenny and I were still engaged, he was bitten by a Black Widow spider and I was bitten by a Hobo spider.

We were bitten just a few weeks apart, but still we thought we had some sort of spidery connection. :)

Kenny's leg got huge and when you poked your finger in it, the indent would stay. My knee and the skin around it basically started to rot.

It was gross! If you want to see what a bite looks like you're going to have to research that on your own. I just couldn't bring myself to post the gross images. The spider pics are bad enough!

We both survived these encounters and feel grateful that we kept all our limbs, but we are both a little disappointed that we came out of the experience with no super spidey powers. Apparently neither spider was radioactive. We are now hoping that these powers will be passed on to our future children. Although my dad continues to tell me that children are enough of a handful without walking up walls and shooting webs at their parents, but we continue to hope! :)

Thus far, the doctor has said that our son possesses no extra spidey powers, but if he does later we will be changing our last name to Spiderwig. Kenny, Jandi, and Baby Spiderwig. :)

Okay, sorry for the gross spider pics. I promise my next post will be of fun prego and ultrasound pics! By the way, where do I get cute backgrounds for our blog? Help!
