Surprise Belly Picture
So, I don't have any 'posed' belly shots from this pregnancy. Not that I don't want them - but Morgan usually doesn't get home until late in the evening, and honestly - I don't look all that glamorous in my PJ's. When we went to the pumpkin patch last week, Morgan was the photographer for most of the activity. Much to my surprise when I downloaded them was a picture of me and my growing belly. So, here you go. 21 weeks along. Gotta love being 5 foot 2 and short waisted, there's only one way to grow.... out.

1st Dental Visit
Done! Whew!
It wasn't awful, but I hope that our next visit in 6 months goes a little easier!

Kun-kins
Andrew has had so much fun with all the pumpkins that are out and about. We have a few toy pumpkins (thanks mom!) at the house, he's even sleeping with one! We thought it would be fun to go to a local church and pick out a pumpkin together. Andrew just kept on saying "kun-kin!" It was pretty cute. Here's some pictures from our adventures.

Baby #2....
The Stinson Family is about to have a whole lot more pink in our lives...
.... We're having a GIRL! We are so excited. Everything looked great on the ultrasound.
Morgan wasn't able to be at the ultrasound, so we had the tech write down the gender for us. We met up for lunch at a favorite place of ours, and had Andrew tell us the letters that were written down. We both thought that we heard Andrew say "O" so - we thought it was a boy - we looked at the paper and were shocked to see GIRL written down!! I'm now almost 21 weeks along. It's nice to be on the "downhill" side. February/March can't get here soon enough!

Andrew's Birthday Celebration(s)
Andrew had a great birthday this year! We started the day with homemade blueberry muffins and then we were off to Speech Therapy. Andrew had a great day there, so that's a plus. After speech we went to this cute little bakery in town and treated ourselves with donuts and a cupcake for later.
Since Morgan was going to be at school all day long - we headed out to my parent's house for the day. Andrew had a fun lunch at McDonald's, and played in the 'play place' for the first time. Let me tell you - don't send a super cautious kid in one of those things.... Andrew had a great time playing in it, but when it was time to go - he would not come down the slide. So... preggo Emmy got to climb all the way up to him.... those are NOT made for adults! When I got to Andrew - he stated "I stuck." I pulled him out of his little nook and we slid down the slide. He wanted to go up again, but I resisted, I didn't want a repeat performance!
We had dinner with my family and Andrew got to blow some candles out and open up a gift.
That night, my sis-in-law called and Andrew had ALL his Stinson cousins sing Happy Birthday to him over the phone from Utah. He had a big smile on his face. It was great.
Saturday we had a family birthday party at our house. Andrew had a lot of fun. It was nice having some family over and enjoying each others company. Since Andrew LOVES numbers, I thought it would be fun to make him a number themed cake. I was pretty happy with my creation.
Andrew got a lot of new fun toys and games. We've played with most of them already.
Favorite toy: A truck that'll tow 4 cars. Andrew took it with him for his nap today :-)
Then it was time to blow the candles out and cut the cake. Perfect ending to the party!
Happy Birthday Andrew! We still can't believe that you are three. You are the light of our lives!
