Happy Thanksgiving

I hope all of you had a great turkey day. My day turned out really nice despite the fact that the turkey took a little longer to cook (about an hour, yeah I was nervous). We did Thanksgiving at our house. We were hoping that the Bryce and Amy could come, but Amy understandably didn't feel up to the drive (she is eight months pregnant). We planned on dinner with the Hansens (family of four) and Justin's grandparents at first. Then our friends the Kerns (another family of four) ended up coming to town last second and came over to eat. Our friend, Scott, joined us because his family was out of town and he had to stay and work. All in all we had nine adults and five kids. Not too shabby. We had a ton of food, so everything worked out well.

Case, the baby of the group at 16 months. Poor guy, we only have girly bibs at our house currently.

Let the feast begin!
Justin and Ethan are good buddies.

Becca H. and I trying to time everything just right. Do you love my 33 weeks prego belly?

When the magic button wasn't popping out of the turkey, we inserted my fancy meat thermometer. It made us so happy every time we saw the temperature go up a degree.

These are some really cute picts of Izzy that Becca K. took today when she came to visit me for awhile. I'm hoping she will convince her husband that she needs to move back so we can hang out all the time. Anyway, I thought the pictures were super cute. Plus it showcases what I do all day with Isabella. Yeah, she loves her Ponies and her Rocket. Mostly it's all about playing Ponies.

Two Months!?!?!

I am now to two week appointments. Sometimes I can't believe how fast time flies and I still have so much to do, but then other times I think ugh, I still have two more months of being pregnant? I don't understand how my mom did this six times.

Luckily I'm feeling a little bit more prepared. I made a quilt and bumper pads this week (pictures to come). Some of my sweet friends gave me a baby shower, so now at least this little boy won't have to be naked after he's born and he will have some diapers.

My biggest worries about Baby Boy Wilson is that he doesn't have a name yet and we aren't positive about how to paint his room. I guess that is not that bad.

This is kind of a lame post. Sorry.

Happy Halloween

We really had a great time enjoying this spooky day. Isabella has been sure to point out all the pumpkins and ghosts to me every time we drive down the road.

Our celebrating started last weekend with our ward "Trunk or Treat" most of which Izzy slept through. She was really excited when she woke up and then we started to get candy in her pumpkin.

Our next activity was decorating haunted gingerbread houses. Izzy was a little grumpy at first, but really started to get into the decorating. I didn't take any pictures that night, but this is how our house turned out.

Next, CARVING PUMPKINS! This is one of my favorite things about Halloween. Justin really loves it too. Izzy loves to help (sometimes a little too much) and enjoyed scooping the seeds out of her little pumpkin.

Finally, the BIG night itself. I admit that because Izzy tends to be a little leery of strangers, I thought she would be nervous to go door to door. Turns out that candy is HUGE motivator. She said "Trick or Treat", "Thank You", and "Happy Halloween" at every house. We walked around our block and she raked in the candy. Who could resist giving this princess a handful of candy?
