We were so blessed by all the wonderful gifts the people gave us. We received things like a Boppy, diapers, blankets, pacifiers, Butt Paste (lots! apparently it's very useful!), changing table pad, lots of clothes, and much much more! Lilly Jo, you are loved already!

Seth has gotten quite used to what having a daughter will be like, having gotten to know Maddie Willis from church:)

Waiting in expectation to meet our little daughter...

Until then, we are so grateful for our friends and church family at HBCNR - THANK YOU SO MUCH for your love and generosity toward us!!

A Bun in the Oven

Thanks to a couple at my work, Seth and I had a very creative halloween costume:)
Meet Seth, the chef; Rebecca, the oven; and Lilly Jo, the bun in my oven.
She's still cookin' and we can't wait to meet her!

Fair?

This year I seriously debated whether or not to go to the fair, due to all the flu going around. It's been tough to not worry about the flu while being pregnant, but I know that's not what God wants for me, or Lilly Jo.
The day before we went to the fair, I had my wk 27 doctor's visit and to my surprise, they had H1N1 vaccines available! If you look closely you can see the bandaid tan I got when I forgot to take off the bandaid while out at the lake after the doctor's visit.
After having had both the seasonal flu and H1N1 vaccines I felt a little more comfortable with going to the fair. So we went with Nat and John and our friend Brian Lowther (missed you Debbie), and saw many other friends along the way!

Lilly Jo certainly ate good that night - we had chicken pitas, roasted corn, cotton candy, ice cream, country ham biscuits, funnel cake and maybe more...I can't remember. I'm pregnant.

My how much has changed in a year:) 3 apples at the fair this year!

Nat and I had a marvelous time pigging out this year - feeding our fetus' well!

Thanks for driving in town for the fair Morreales:)

To finish off our anniversary weekend we came home, carved pumpkins - Seth carved one with stars in it for me, because it looks beautiful all lit up, and I carved a small one with the number "1" in it, for our first anniversary. After pumpkin carving we cut our wedding cake and had a bite for tradition sake. Tasty? Mmm, not so much. But who really expects it to be. Actually our cake baker, Ashley Cakes, makes us a fresh anniversary cake for the 1st anniversary. We'll pick that up this week and I can't wait - chocolate with raspberry filling - delish!!!
