It's a GIRL!!!!!

And we couldn't be more excited! Nate and I thought for sure it was a boy. The Petersons only have boys, there are no girls! I still had a small glimpse of hope that it was a girl though and thank goodness I did!

Hayden has become more used to the idea of having a baby. We have asked him what we should name her and before Halloween he said we should name her Princess Witch. I am guessing he got that since it was Halloween time. Now that it is over he is saying we should name her Rhonda. That was sweet of him!! Although we have already picked out a name. I had a few that I liked and one that I have liked forever and ever but for some reason another name had grown on me. I want to tell you all but I think I will leave it as a surprise, for now anyway!!!

Things are going great so far with my pregnancy and the baby is growing perfectly. We just need to keep things moving along smoothly. Keep your fingers crossed for us! I will keep updated as we move along in our journey! Only 16 weeks left!!!

Halloween Fun!

Part of our Halloween fun we carved pumpkins with my family. We each carve one as a family. So there is only three pumpkins but that is plenty seems how this year no one was really interested in doing this except Hayden and my Brother. Hayden loves to do projects and once again loves to help do anything so he of course wanted to be the one that did all of the cutting. Totally not safe and it was hard for him to understand that. But before we got started he passed out knives to everyone, butter knives! Nate and Hayden's pumpkim was the funniest because of how small the face was. Nate had already started and didn't realize how big the pumpkin was. My Brother's (Landen wasn't around) pumpkin was cute and so was my Mom and Dad's. Landen doesn't have much interest in helping do things like this. He would rather be off playing and watching movies.

Look at my cheesy brother! What kind of smile is that?!

And then we have my Dad! He is so grumpy sometimes!

Next, Hayden had his Halloween Parade at Preschool. Have I ever mentioned how much I love this preschool?! She is the best ever and now I understand why I had to put the boy's names on the list back when they were first born! Anyway, since it was cold and kind of rainy outside the parade was hekld inside their classroom. There wasn't much room with all the parents and grandparents but is was so worth seeing! The kids were all so cute and Hayden did so good! They sang two Halloween songs for us and Hayden actually sang! We were so proud of him! It seemed like he was having a great time until it was time to go and I went up to get him. That's when he turned the tears one and whined that he wanted to go home. He does this every week when he goes to school, STILL! I don't get it but I still drag him there because I know that he is having so much fun!

Hayden with his two teachers. It looks like I am punishing him but I promise it's the best preschool in town!!

Halloween Day was very busy! We got to go to a Halloween party hosted by Hayden's friend Trevor. It was lots of fun! We made skeleton candy necklaces, carmel apples, and ate some yummy mummy hot dogs! Jen had planned such a cute little party for these little boys. Thanks very much Jen, our boys loved it!

Hayden and Landen in their new Halloween Jammies given to them from Grandma and Grandpa. They were both really wanting their picture taken, can you tell?!

All tuckered out after a day full of fun! I think Hayden's favorite part of Halloween was passing out candy to the kids that came trick or treating to Grandma and Grandpa's. He is such a great helper!

Fall Leaves

Holy Moly, ,my parents have tons and tons of leaves at their house! They always have! We decided to help my Mom rake leaves since my Dad was gone in Hawaii working. I don't know how she thought she was going to tackle this task on her own. It is quite a job!! Hayden loves to help do anything but this was an especially fun job to him. He loved it! With the 4 of us it didn't take as long as I thought and we got all done. I am a firm believer in team work!!!

How do you like Hayden's attire? Snow boots and leaf raking. HHMMM....

Look at all the bags of leaves! I think there were 30 bags!
