Hello lovies,

Well it has been a fantastic month  We had an excellent time at my sister’s halloween party and our homemade costumes were a hit (Jack Skellington and Sally).  I will try to post pics later but this is just a quickie.  Halloween was super busy,  I think we had about 100 -120 kids and some we had to turn away.  I was super busy trying to cook supper and run from my kitchen to my front door each time the doorbell rang, which is no easy feat as our house is quite large and I have a sucky dog that loves to get underfoot.  Sometimes I just caught my trick or treaters as they were walking away.  

I was waiting ever so patiently for my husband to get home as I had BIG news to share, finally he came home and was helping me with supper as I frantically ran back and forth.  During a brief break from our little ghosts and goblins I told him I had news and showed him a digital pregnancy test that showed pregnant 1-2 weeks!  He was sooooo excited he grabbed me up for a big kiss and then.. you guessed it the doorbell rang but my dad got that bunch of kids.   DH was soo happy don’t think anything could wipe that smile off his face.  Well of course after that we told dad who’s response was about time lol… Then proceeded to call and message friends and family.  Mom was pretty stoked too.  My sister, her husband and my niece showed up and were super excited as well. 

So now I’m about 6 weeks as per traditional ways of figuring out how far along you are and though I’m stoked about being pregnant and having a  new little addition to our family I could really do without the hormones!!!!!!  I’m super worried about miscarrying and of course I stress about it but DH is super sweet and we talked about it last night.  Which helped alot! But then right in the middle of an intimate moment I decide to burst into tears for no apparent reason! DH and I ended up having a good laugh over it when he asked me what was wrong I answered I dunno, I’m pregnant!  I’m feeling alot better today and hope it stays that way.   I have been very fortunate as I do not have morning sickness  

On a side note I am working on things for a craft show I am doing at the end of the month but it’s hard to do right now as my back hurts darn arthritis.  And I am finally going to meet DH brother and family at the end of the month as well and I am super scared!  I’m afraid that things won’t be good enough and they might not like me…. Gah How am I going to get through this month? somebody wanna switch me places?

Anyway I have a birthday hamster to deliver so I better get moving.

Later Dayz,

Brandi
