Halloween humor!
This year Elly went as Princess Peach! Isn't she cute?! 
Mario went along for the ride. Do you see the pumpkin that is craved as a peace sign? Rock on with your bad selves neighbors! 
Just some neighbors, yes in Ohio we do Halloween on the Sunday before Halloween. Supposedly it's safer to do it at 3pm~5pm. Fine with me, but it still is taking time to get used to.
A few years ago, this little cutie was begging for candy in her sweet Alice in Wonderland costume. Halloween for Ohio this year is on Sunday, and it's going to be cold. Elly is again going as a princess but I'll wait to share which one. Muahahaha!
Elly wrote Aunt Candee a letter and before I mailed it I had to document it. Finally Aunt Candee got it in the mail so I can share it with you all. Sometime Aunt Candee visits Ellyphant so I didn't want to ruin the surprise. For those of you who are confused here is an explanation:
Aunt Candee and Keely have blond hair, she even got the length right. Aunt Candee knows spanish along with Keely. Why the Hola and not Howdy or Hello or How you doing?
The inside part cracked me up, I still was laughing when I was mailing it. Poor post office clerk probably thought I was nuts. Elly did this all by herself, so creative.
I little girl in my house, who is 7 with brown hair and big brown eyes, is very excited about seeing Puss and Boots this weekend. She even wrote it on the calendar all by herself. Found the date and everything. Too cute!
I don't know about you but I love reading holiday books. Elly does too! Jon and I are in awe with her reading right now. Last year she was a frustrated little reader and would get down on herself quite a lot if she couldn't figure out a word. This year something clicked and now she loves to read and she is quite good. We are so impressed!

Symptoms
Feeling her kick daily, best moment so far was yesterday when Elly felt her kick. She bragged to Jon that she felt her sister, he's super jealous. She just won't kick when he put his hand on my belly. Stubborn, just like him.Cravings
I decided to change work outs to cravings. I've had to come to the very real realization that I just won't be one of those gym buffs with a belly. I've tried, trust me I have, but I just get extremely sore in all the wrong places. So anyways, cravings...pie. I want it all the time. Salty food is my enemy. I had a hankering for sloppy joes last night, made them, took one bite and was done. I just want sweet right now.
Poof
Poof is as long as a spaghetti squash.
I'm so excited, this arrived in the mail yesterday!! WOO HOO! I love the elephant the most of course. HA! Now all it needs it a precious baby girl to snuggle in it.
It was the first annual race for this high school, they were raising money for new sports equipment. The made over $12K! Way to go!
Poor Jon was still at our car when the race started, but don't feel too bad, he still came in 3rd overall. Mr. McSpeedy.
Such a ham! She doesn't know how to pose does she?
Coming in, Elly was nice and decided to run with me for awhile, then she ditched me right at the end. I jogged and walked fast, a mistake I'm still paying for 8 days later.
Here she comes!
Getting her medal, only kids were allowed medals...whatever. =)
Showing off her bling. Way to go Elly! So proud of you!
Jon freezing getting his 20 seconds of fame, 3rd place overall, not too shabby! Proud of you!
Today we celebrate our legal union...sounds weird, but I only say it this way because I don't want to forget about the six years we had prior to this date. In those 6 years we grew up fast, moved in together, welcomed a daughter, made many life choices that a typical married couple would make, and just loved each other. I've said it before but I'll say it again, I would of married this man the day I met him. Happy Anniversary to us! XOXO
I really want to buy this for Halloween but can't justify the purchase. Wouldn't it be hilarious?!?
Halfway there, I just can't believe I'm at that milestone already!! CRAY CRAY CRAZY!!
Bump, bump, bump in the road! How big will it get?
Mood
I couldn't be happier with the news last week, another little lady to love! Poor Jon is out numbered (even the dog is female) but he couldn't be more thrilled. I asked him about 5 times are you upset it's not a boy and he reassured me about 5 times that he loves being a Daddy to a little girl. Bless him!
Symptoms
Feeling kicks and loving them, I'm actually looking forward to when they are stronger. I start to worry when I can't feel her. Still getting morning sickness every now and then which I thought was gone, but awhh well I'll take it.
Workouts
Ha! Well, I did jog a little on Sunday at a fun run and am seriously paying for it. Ouch! Walking is my only friend.
Poof
Poof is the length of a banana
