Our Weekend..

This past weekend has been great! My Mom, Alexis, Grandma Josie, and I drove up north on Thursday afternoon because I had a Doc appt. My doctor said that the baby is doing great and growing just as she should be! The heartbeat sounded awesome.. and Alexis' little face just lit up when she heard it :) I asked Dr. Willis about the whole "how many c-sections someone can have" and he said he has done 11 c-sections on one of his patients. So I'm not at all worried now about having another c-section if I do decide to go that route. Dr. Willis said that if I keep seeing him.. he would be willing to induce me 2 weeks before my due date and that we would try a VBAC. That means Kinleigh would be here around Feb. 1st :) That is 2 weeks less that we have to wait to hold our little baby!! He said that I really don't have to choose just yet.. and that if we are going to be coming up here once a month anyways that he'd obviously love for me to keep seeing him. I do think I'm going to still meet with a Dr. in Monticello just in case I go into labor before my induction date and have to have the baby in Monticello. At least the doctor would know of me. But I'm no longer stressed out about it.. I am going to keep seeing my doctor up north and hope that Kinleigh will stay in until my induction date. I just feel more confident with Dr. Willis. Plus he delivered Alexis and I just think that would be neat for them to both have the same doc! Anyways...
Thursday night "the girls" and Chad all went to Red Robin for Keri and Kelly's b-day!! It was very yummy and I bought dinner for them for their b-day gift :) I also had Alexis' 4 year old pic's done at Kiddie Kandids that night.. They turned out so cute!! I will post them soon :) Jonathon, my Dad, Derek, and Derek's friend got to Kelly's house around 5:30 am. on Friday morning. They left when my Dad and Jonathon got off work. Then Jonathon and Chad woke up around 9 am. to go do some Pest Control services they needed to get done. We just kind of hung out on Friday and then that night the whole family went to Texas Roadhouse to celebrate Jonathon's, Kelly's, and Keri's b-days :) It was a lot of fun, but traffic was horrible that night. After dinner Jonathon, Alexis, and I went over to Dennis and Valynn's house to hang out and visit with Jonathon's family. We stayed the night at Celena's, then the next morning drove back down to Kelly's house to hang out. We went to the park and watched Chad fly his airplane and Lexi and Nicoley got to play on the playground :) Afterwards we went to Kelly's to get the girls ready for Halloween! They both looked so adorable :)
Since it was pouring rain we decided we'd try the "mall trick 0r treating" and it actually was really fun! The girls didn't have to freeze outside and got some yummy candy :) We all then drove up to Celena's and did a trunk or treat in her neighborhood.. It was still raining really bad so we got out of the car just long enough to go through the line. We waited about an hour and then my Mom, Kelly, Nicoley, Alexis, and I went around Celena's neighborhood and the girls had a lot of fun going and ringing the doorbells :) They both got their buckets filled up with candy and then we called it good!
Jonathon, Alexis, and I then went over to Dennis and Valynn's again and played games with his family that night as well :)
It was so fun to be able to do Halloween with both my family and Jonathon's family.. Even though the weather didn't cooperate at all. I wonder how many kids will be knocking doors tonight being that it is Sunday??

So a few weeks ago Kelly and I decided that instead of having our girls old clothes sit in boxes that she would use some of Alexis clothes that fit Nicoley perfectly right now.. and that I could take Nicoley's old baby clothes for Kinleigh!! I think it was a GREAT idea, because now Nicole has a whole new wardrobe and I probably have 7 garbage bags full of baby clothes between Alexis' baby clothes and Nicoley's baby clothes. In fact we counted the baby shoes and between Nicole's and Alexis'.. Kinleigh will start out with like 45 pairs of shoes!! I'm glad that both Kelly and I saved all of our stuff! Almost all of the clothes are in perfect condition :) Some haven't even been worn! It was fun going through all of Alexis' old things and Nicoley's. It's crazy that Alexis fit in those things.. lol. And it has been so fun to see Nicole in some of my favorite outfits of Alexis' :) Better that than them sitting in boxes for years and years.
Nicole is getting so big already too! She is so much fun right now :) Alexis and her get along pretty good.. they fight about toys sometimes.. but what kids don't? I'm glad Lexi has Sorcia, Izzy, and Nicoley to play with!

Jonathon and I were going to go back to Monticello today.. But our car has a broken mount something?? I don't really know.. so we are getting it fixed tomorrow morning. The car is still under warranty so that is a good thing. Then we'll head home so that Jonathon can make it to work tomorrow night. Tonight we are supposed to be getting together with Jonathon's family again.. so that should be fun. I will post Halloween pics soon :)
