I just wanted to say Hi to all my journaling friends out there. I've been so tired lately trying to pack at the apartment, and unpack at the house. Plus there have been things needing bought for the new house, and of course the everyday things can't be put off either. Can you say laundry? I have about 6 loads waiting for me in the basement right now. My point being, I haven't had time to read your journals, and say hello like I'd like. I'll be back around as soon as I can.

        I took the kids trick or treating Monday night, which I really didn't have time for, but they had fun. They also had a costume parade at school that same day. Last year I got video of my daughter's parade. This year it didn't even cross my mind to bring the video camera with me. I also got still shots of the kids in costume last year, but do you think I thought of that this year? Nope. Duh! I might have them put the costumes back on soon so I can get a pic. Matthew was Dale Earnhart, and he was the only racer I saw. It was a good thick fabric, and the costume only cost about $21. Caitlin wore two different costumes this year. For the school parade she was some sort of Pixie Fairy, and for trick or treating she was a cheap version of Disney's Belle. The temperature was in the 40's, and thankfully it didn't rain. It was a real change from trick or treating in the south where you come home sweating!

        Well, I guess I've rested long enough. Not really, but it's time to get off my butt anyway. I've got over $300 worth of things to unload from my shopping trip. This does include a dust mop, other cleaning products, 2 kinds of laundry soap (cause Dale insists on having liquid, and I like powder, plus the amount of laundry products I use would probably frighten anyone!), a cool mist humidifier (cause Matthew gets nose bleeds during the night when the house is too dry), 3 wall clocks I just had to have, and various other things.

Kathy, you shouldn't have just taken your kids out trick or treating, you should have done some candy begging yourself. If anyone gives you strange comments or looks about being 'too old to trick or treat' just tell them it's for you unborn child. I did that.

Kathy, you are one busy, busy woman! I can't wait to see pictures of your precious little ones, as well as photos of your house. Enjoy yourself! Such a beautiful time of year.

"cause Dale insists on having liquid, and I like powder,"

I'm with Dale, the powder makes me itch!
Don't work too hard my friend!! :P

Yep, I want to see some pictures. My little guys dressed up as Teenage Ninja Turtles.

Hi hon,
You are remembering to actually rest aren't you? You could always enact the child labor. LOL Glad to hear that the kids had fun on Halloween. I agree with Wendy you should definately have done some candy begging for your peanut!
Take care,
Aidan

Kathy, you are way too active to be this pregnant! You need a nap, woman! And I want to see some kind of pictures of the kiddos! And yeah...what Wendy said! You should have gotten candy too! I know one unborn baby who is probably a wee bit angry with you right now for not giving him the sugar he so desperately needs (NOT!). Talk to you later!

Hi hon,
I hope that this finds you off those poor feet and resting!
Take care,
Aidan

I hope those other various items you bought included something nice for yourself like a new outfit, a book or a dildo something.
