Boo Baby

Well, Halloween is just a few days away, and I wish it would just hurry and pass. I am not excited this year about dressing the girls up in cutesy litle costumes. Gracie has chosen to be Ariel, and I am thrilled that there is nothing I have to do for that! Faith will be a little ballernina if her costume still fits (I bought it last year and she didn't get to wear it). I got her some cute little pink ballet slippers that she loves! That will be the extent of boo scary for them. For Cam and me, however, we will be flag football players. I, of course, get to "carry" the ball since it will be painted on the big ol' belly. We will both wear sweats and Cowboys jerseys...mine is pink...I will post a picture when I can. The party we are dressing up for is tonight, so you may get to see as soon as tomorrow, but we all know that I am not so disciplined to post daily. I am pretty pumped about my cute new jersey and about the great photos that we will get to show the baby when she arrives.
Speaking of baby, did I tell you that I have been having regular dreams that this baby appears with a ..."thingy"? It is starting to really weird me out. This is the first pregnancy that I have not had a contingency plan for a boy. I have no idea what we would do! Perhaps that is why I am stressing in my sleep. And there is still the fact that his name would be Hank...On a happy note, I have started to receive my online orders from Target. I got my pink diaper pail (how fun is that!) last weekend, and I got my Moses basket on Thursday. It is the sweetest thing you've ever seen! I cannot wait to use it! My bedding, Bumbo chair, Boppy cover, and sheet have been shipped, so now I just wait. It is like Christmas!! I got a lot of gift cards to Target to help out with the baby purchases...now we are ready to go! I still need to get some bassinet sheets, which no one in this stupid town carries, and I would like to get one of those car seat covers for the cold weather. I plan on picking those up when we come to Fort Worth on the 10th. I am also wanting a baby sling. I am having a little bit of difficulty choosing one because I want the kind that the baby can both sit and lay in. If anyone knows which one does this, I would appreciate a reccomendation. I really cannot imagine myself wearing a sling, but we will attempt it...the concept is good anyway! Not sure how I got to talking about this from Halloween, but I have to go scrounge up some paint to get this football on the belly painted.
