Josh and my swollen body at Spencer Farm hayride

--This past week was filled with fun! To start off, I had my first cavity filled on Friday. Again....I am blaming that one on pregnancy. No problem getting it filled and I did not use any anesthesia to make it as safe for the baby as possible. I got my flu shot on Monday (reluctantly) and all seems fine so far.

--Later on Friday Josh's dad (Lee) and his bulldog (Kap'em), came in town from St. Louis. They were in town for Saturday's Butler Bulldog Beauty Contest that occurs every year during Butler's homecoming. This year there were 93 registered dogs at the contest. We go to enjoy all the bulldogs and bulldog wanna-be's. My mom joined us with her dog and got second place in the trick category. All the dogs were so well behaved and got along so great! It is so much fun to see all the bullies together. Brutus and Kap'em are buddies now that Kap'em is big enough for him to play tug-o-war. Sweet Pea just sits by G-Pa soaking up all the attention!

--We then went to pick out some pumpkins and mums at Spencer Farms on the free hayride. I think I was having an allergic reaction to the hay as I was so swollen that day! Oh well....I guess I am pregnant, maybe that is the reason :) Feeling pretty good overall except for the morning and evening swelling and the numbness in my right hand. I love my baby belly because our little miracle is in there. I feel more and more connected to this little one everyday. I can't wait to meet him or her!

--Josh is excited October baseball is here again as he was up late watching the games. Go Cardinals!! We are also enjoying relaxing on Sundays watching the Colts play. I am going to enjoy this football season as I will be home for the playoffs with our little one. Having the baby in the winter time gives me a good excuse to stay inside and cuddle! We have another checkup on Friday and I'll post more later.
