This Halloween was so much fun because Ruby actually understood what to do and she loved trick or treating. She was a skunk this year and she looked so cute!!! It started with my parents annual grandparent party. They have all of us over and the kids are in their costumes. The kids do a parade for the parents and then we all get to eat pizza! After pizza, the parents are kicked out and the kids get to decorate cookies and bob for apples. Then they have a sleep over and watch movies. You have to be 2 to sleep over, so Ruby will get to next year. We just left her there for all of the games and then came to get her when the movie started.

Then we went up to Will's parents for their ward trunk or treating the next day. It started to rain just as we got there, but Ruby did not care! She realized that if she walked up to the cars and just smiled, that she got to choose a treat to put in her pumpkin basket. She did really good and she kept trying to run ahead of us to the next car. By the end, her basket was so heavy that she was just dragging it behind her. If you tried to take it from her, you had to pick her up too cause she was not letting go of it! She also had a total sugar high that night. She just kept running back and forth and screaming at the top of her lungs. Luckily she crashed about an hour later but she was going crazy for a while.

I was able to go to the So You Think You Can Dance concert with my sisters, my mom, Brooklyn and Brianna, and Melanee and Riley. It was so good! We went to Chilis first and then headed over to the concert. I loved seeing all of my favorite dances again. My dad watched Ruby for me, so that I could go. Thanks Dad!!!
I also went to the dr. last week for our little baby boy. I am 25 weeks now and he is moving like crazy. He loves his dad already and moves tons when he comes home (he is working in Moab right now). I have now gained 11 lbs and the baby is looking great! My dr. also said that he will induce me a week early so that my spring break will be an extra week off. So we're planning on a February baby instead of March! We are still trying to come up with a name that we can agree on. I don't think it will ever happen, but we'll see. We are in the process of cleaning out his room, because it became our storage room when we had Ruby. We will be doing his room in a mint green color and brown with monkeys. When we get it done, I'll post some pictures. Overall, life is great and Ruby is getting so big. She just had 2 teeth come in and she is in the process of getting her 1 year old molars in. I hope they come in soon, cause she needs to start to sleeping better soon so that I can too!
