Long Overdue Update

I know I have neglected the blog again, but I do have a good excuse. I have been really sick the past two weeks.

We went to Houston two weekends ago for a wedding. Jonathan was a groomsman in his good friend from college, John Clickscales, wedding. We had a lot of fun, but the following Monday I started to come down with a bad cough and sore throat. I went to the doctor just to make sure it wasn't anything more serious and he confirmed that it was just a really bad cold. Unfortunately when you are pregnant you can't take a lot of cold medicine. The two things the doctor recommended I try made me feel really weird, so I just stuck with a Neti Pot. There is nothing worse than being sick and pregnant. After about a week I thought I had turned a corner, but then it moved into my sinuses. I am still battling a little congestion, cough and headache, but am finally starting to feel better. Jonathan has been a good sport, having to work and play Mr. Mom at home. To make matters worse, William has a cold too (not near as bad as mine).

We did go to Houston for Thanksgiving, but had kind of a rough time. I had a severe headache almost the whole time we were in town and William wasn't feeling good either. Hopefully next week will bring better health. Check back later in the week for more updates on William, Logan and our life in Waco.

"This House....Trick or Treat"

We had a very festive Halloween with my sister and her family in Houston this year.


Jonathan carved a pumpkin for the kids Saturday morning. Then my sister toasted the pumpkin seeds for everyone to snack on.

Later that day we went to a Fall Festival at their church. If you can't tell, William was a monkey for Halloween.

We then went to a Halloween party and Trick or Treating. William had so much fun, he would point to a house and say, "This house, trick or treat!"

We finished the night by checking out the Halloween loot...
