Three little pumpkins

Alison, Erik, and I had our annual Halloween celebration night. For the past four years we have either gone to the haunted corn maze or carved pumpkins. This year we stuck with some yummy fondue and pumpkin carving.

Alison focused on her carving!

Erik focused on his carving!

Our baby even made an appearance!

A baby in a tummy, a jack-o-lantern, and a scary ghost! A successful night.

14 1/2 weeks

I've heard everything from "you are hardly showing" to "are you like 5 or 6 months along" So, you decide!

We are all well. I am officially in my second trimester and after a brief encounter with morning sickness, am now feeling great. Erik has tolerated (and in fact been very kind about) my random food desires and aversions, and has been all around wonderfully supportive!

We are getting more and more excited to meet this little one.

It Fits!

So I have this friend who is super creative and wonderful! We received this in the mail, all the way from Atlanta, a few days ago and I can't get enough of it. I think it might be the most adorable thing I've ever seen! I can't decide if the ear flaps or the fluffs at the top are my favorite part.

Gail, thank you! We love it and can't wait to send you a picture of baby wearing the "Oregon hat" Auntie GG made :)
