Sea World Howl O Scream!

This year we ventured to Sea World to see what their Howl O Scream was like. Needless to say...syd's still a bit scared! Not everything was frieky, just a few parts. It was super fun...and I got scared to death by a werewolf...definately a must do if you're in SA for an October weekend...

some stretching

brian had another soccer game today....most of the pics are the same as the last ones i've posted, but I thought these ones of the kids stretching were cute.



Pumpkin Patch

This morning we took the kids on our annual pumpkin patch trip! Well, we didn't have to travel far, but it was still a good time. They picked out some cute pumpkins....syd even got one for the new baby. Sweet!
And, YES, we are in TEXAS gear, because it was a SUPER BIG GAME TODAY! And of course, THEY WON!!!





Spurs Game

Last night Matt and I got the opportunity to go to the Spurs first home game. Yes, it was pre-season, but it was still tons of fun! We love our Spurs--even if they did lose to New Orleans. BOO!

THANKS!

Hey all!! Thanks so much for your well wishes and congratulations!  so i'll answer a few questions.....
**yes, we have 2 names- haven't decided between the 2 just yet (i think we have time! HA!) but I think we'll keep them a secret for a little while longer....  ;)
**i've been feeling alright--SO tired, and for a few weeks totally crappy, but it's getting much better now and the acupuncture has already helped A TON with my migranes!
**I really don't know how I was able to dodge suspicion for so long....there are some who knew earlier, but for the most part, many were surprised!  ;)  it was actually kinda fun having a secret that just matt and i knew for so long! 

now i'm getting in the prepare mode.  trying to look for a bigger house--praying for a job offer--figuring out what we actually need (since i sold a TON of stuff already).  really, we thought we were done after Bri and Syd, but what can we say--someone was telling us there was another one waiting.  

love to all!!  we'll keep you updated!

and for the drum roll please......

IT'S A GIRL!!! YAY! We are sooo excited--especially Sydnee and I. She already looks so cute on the scan...but I may be a tad biased, I'm not sure! HA! Everything's growing exactly as it should be--she's so active--doing little twists and turns in there. AND, so cute, like my other 2 kids, she had her feet crossed at the ankles. Who knows why they do this, but I love it! I am due March 9,09. So I am about 18 weeks along. Just thought we'd FINALLY share the good news OFFICIALLY!

acupuncture #2

i had acupuncture appointment #2 today... i know- you're all super excited to hear about it too ;)
anywhoo--this time i laid on my stomach and he put some in my back, the back of my head, and sides of my head.  The dr said one more treatment and that should knock out these headaches at least for the duration of my special condition.  GOOD news!  PLUS, it's costing not even  1/3 of what my migrane meds would have cost and it's medication free! Love that!  For those of you with chronic aches and pains that don't seem to have cure, give acupuncture a try...it just may work!

Acupuncture

Happy Monday!  To start this week off, I went for my first acupuncture appointment this morning.  I have been having severe headaches and nothing seems to help.  So I thought-why not?  It was so cool!  The needles didn't hurt AT ALL when he was putting them in.  He put them in my arms, neck, head and 3 on my forehead.  I'm a bit sore now, but nothing compared to the migranes I've been having.  I have another appointment on Wednesday- wish me luck! :)

UT GAME!!!


Matt and I left Fiesta Texas day after a couple hours to drive to Austin for the UT game. Oh my gosh!!! WE. HAD. SO. MUCH. FUN!!!!!!!!! The seats were great, the tailgaiting parties were like none i've ever seen before, the team spirit was in full force, and we even had a parking pass. (for anyone who's ever been to a UT game, or any professional game for that matter, this was one of the best things!!) I think that was the most burnt orange I have ever seen in my life! I love it!!! I totally wore all texas gear *even a TEXAS purse!*, had tatoos on my cheeks, and a pompom in my hair. I was loving it. And, i do have to say, that as a former cheerleader, I REALLY wanted to get down on the field and cheer! LOL! I know, I know, I'm the stereotypical cheerleader, BUT it takes so much more work than anyone realizes AND it's sooooo fun!! I asked Matt if it was too late for me to go to UT and be a cheerleader....his response?? ....."well you can certainly get one of those uniforms!" HA! Hopefully we'll make it up there again this season....








Fiesta Texas Day

Granny Sharon's (matt's mom) work had their annual Fiesta Texas family day yesterday...and we got to go!! It is always soooo fun--they close the entire park just for valero employees and their guests! Free food- rides- free game tickets! The kids won a few stuffed animals and some superhero capes. A great time was had by all. Matt and I left a bit early to go to the UT game in Austin...that's another post....enjoy the Fiesta TX pics!

Ben, Brian and Bodee like to stick together--we call them the 3 b's! How cute are they?! Bodee was sick for the first game- but Ben and Brian did AWESOME!! poor kids- there was no shade and it was quite hot--but they were troopers and even scored some goals! oh- their team is called the Raptors and bri is NUMBER 5!
