This one's a real humdinger guys. So, you know how I'm 5 weeks away from my due date? Jesse completely tore his achilles tendon playing flag football, he goes in for surgery on Monday to re-attatch it, and after that he can't bear any weight on it for 6 weeks! I feel really bad for him, don't get me wrong... when he moves the wrong way it really hurts him and it's really hard for him to do even the simplest of things (we went and got him a wheelchair today). I just think the timing is bad, that's all. Talk about stress!
On the humorous side, Cooper tries to imitate how Jesse hobbles around on his crutches... I'll have to try and video it, it's hilarious!

Baby Update
All of you can clearly see how far along I am, so I won't comment on that part. All the other stuff is pretty boring and uneventful... it doesn't get exciting till I start having contractions and stuff (funny how pain makes things exciting)! I'm measuring perfectly, gaining a little more weight than I should, but the Doctor says that's fine. The baby likes to wiggle the most when I'm exhausted from the day and just want to put my feet up and relax. Just when I get a nice glass of ice water and have a little moment to myself, my belly seems to erupt with unbounded energy. She shifts from one side to the other, she pushes on my hips and ribs at the same time trying to rearrange my bone structure. Her favorite thing to do lately is to punch (or kick) in one spot incessantly until it feels like I'm going to get a bruise! I hate to think what that will translate into when she comes out!
Cooper doesn't really understand that a baby is coming to his house to stay, for good. He likes to pick up all the baby stuff and say "lala!", but I don't think he has any idea who "lala" is. He does, however, realize that mom is more tired and can't pick him up as much. It infuriates him to no end, and sends him running to daddy for sympathy. Oh, he said the cutest thing today! He held out a bite of pasta to Jesse and said: "bite mine daddy?". What a sweetheart!
Anyway, I hope that update will suffice until I can get Jesse to take some more belly pictures. Only 5 more weeks... yipee!

Skunk on a trike
Sorry I haven't updated for almost an entire month. To make up for it, here are some way cute pictures from Halloween and surrounding events:
Halloween went relatively well, Cooper stayed in his skunk costume for the duration of the ordeal (long enough for us to snap pictures and take him to a few houses). Later on at Mom's house, a scary crawling head made him cry and since no cow was handy, he had to make due with the bow-tie on his costume. We also Carved Pumpkins the day before Halloween. Cooper is a little dubious about getting his hands dirty (sometimes he stops me, mid-meal, to wipe off his hands) so I ended up doing most of the cleaning out. Curiously he has no problem digging around in sand and rocks, or even putting said articles in his mouth. (side note: isn't my belly HUGE?!!)
And here's my mom's version of scary:
Here also is Robin Hood, Cinderella, a skunk, a pirate, and in back we have Kiki. (or, Cohen, Elyza, Cooper, Cash, and in back, Maddie):
