Happy Halloween

Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays. Who doesn't love a day that revolves around dressing up and getting free candy?! Lucky for me, I was feeling the Halloween vibes early and put up all of my decorations in the middle of September before I was placed on bed rest.

Pretty sure Chad found the biggest pumpkins in Orem. Together they weigh 140 pounds!

We ordered a pumpkin shaped pizza from Papa Murphy's for dinner {it tasted a lot better than it looks} and watched Beetlejuice and Casper while we carved our enormous pumpkins.

 In case you're wondering how to carve a 70 pound pumpkin while on bed rest...

We got a surprise visit from the cutest Cinderella and Mike Wazowski there ever was...

Our busy night left us with two worn out dogs.

I'm so excited for next Halloween when we get to spend it with baby DeVore! Happy Halloween!

26 weeks

The best thing about being a "high risk" pregnancy is that I get to see this little babe every two weeks. At every appointment I have an abdomen and cervical ultrasound. In most pregnancies, you usually have 2 ultrasounds your entire pregnancy, so it's definitely fun to watch the progress of this little guy. 

Today, I was exceptionally nervous for my appointment. The further along I get, the more nervous I get about my cervix holding the weight of the baby. During my ultrasound, I was so anxious, I almost passed out! But luckily, the ultrasound tech re-assured me that my cervix is doing perfect! It is still measuring about 2.7 cm, which is the same since surgery... which is amazing news!!! This little guy is already ahead of the charts and is weighing in at 2 pounds! Baby DeVore is one strong baby and we are SO excited to meet him in about 14 weeks!
