Saturday, October 5th, Kolton had a soccer game. He did AMAZING! He scored 7 goals! His team ended up winning 10-7 over a team that beat them pretty good last year. It was awesome.
On Sunday evening Kolton and I made snickerdoodles. I really wanted something sweet and this is what we had ingredients for so that is what we made. :) Kolton loves to roll the dough in to balls and roll it in the sugar/cinnamon mixture. He's pretty good at it.
On October 7th I went to Angela's and had her do my hair. It had been since April and I really needed it done but I wanted to wait long enough to where it would still look good when I had the baby. :) That afternoon we had the heater guy coming to look at the heater (as required by our inspection). He recommended we replace it so we spent a ton of money and got a new one that was supposed to be installed the next day.
The heater guys came in the morning and installed the heater in a couple of hours. That afternoon I drove by our lot and saw that they had started the framing on our house! It was exciting to see!
That night was Madison's senior night for volleyball. Kolton and I went but Brady had to miss it since he had school. It was fun to watch her at her last home game of her volleyball career.
On the 9th Kolton came home with a can of pop from his teacher. He had passed off all of his sight words in class that day! And he was the only one in his class to do it! He's such a smart boy. I just love him. His teacher just moved him to the back of the line at school because she said "I can trust you to make good choices when I'm not looking." She said she needed to move another boy to the front so she could watch him because he wasn't being good in the back of the line. Kolton is such a stud.
My dad was in town that day and came to visit in the evening. Kolton couldn't wait for him to come.
On Saturday, the 12th, Kolton had a soccer game. He scored 4 or 5 goals (I couldn't remember). He also blocked a goal right before it crossed the line. It was awesome. Right after that game was a birthday party for Ethan at the park right next to the game fields. It was great! We just headed over and hung out for a while while the kids played. Then that afternoon we went and picked up a few things for the baby and then that night went to Liz and Adam Smith's for a cookout. They cooked a pig underground and had a bunch of people over to eat it. It was fun! They also projected the BYU game up on a blanket for everyone to watch. Kolton had a lot of fun running all around with the kids.
On Sunday, October 13th, Jeff blessed Esme so we went to church with them. We then went to their home afterwards for a birthday dinner for Pierson.
Brady was singing "kumbaya my Lord" randomly one day after work. Kolton told him "Its 'my horn' not 'my lord'." Brady said no, its "Lord" to which Kolton said "But Lord is our savior Jesus Christ." It was cute. :)
Brady also got me pretty good one afternoon. My phone started ringing and it was a number I didn't recognize but I answered anyway. Some guy was on the other end and was accusing me of hitting his car and leaving my number on his windshield. I kept telling him it wasn't me and he kept yelling at me saying that I did it and he needed to know my insurance company etc. I was so mad that someone would write my number down when they hit his car. I was in the middle of texting Brady to tell him what happened when he started calling me from work. He asked me if I had gotten in a wreck because our insurance company just called him and said that someone said I hit them. I started freaking out. He then started laughing and admitted to pranking me. He used some program on the computer that you can have make a prank call and then they record it and you can download it and listen to it. Everyone at his work had a good time listening to me as I talked to the guy on the phone. Haha. Oh Brady. I love him. :) He makes life fun and interesting. :)
Monday morning I went to the JBF consignment sale but I couldn't find anything I liked. Unfortunately now the first day it is open to the public is on Sunday so everything was pretty picked through by the time I got to go on Monday. I did head to Target, though, and bought some pacifiers for our little guy. I'm determined to get him to like pacifiers. :)
Tuesday we had to take Missy in to get spayed. Brady drove up with me to help me with her when we dropped her off and then Brady's dad followed me there to help me get her in the car and stuff when we went to pick her up so that I wouldn't have to pick her up or anything. She was pretty out of it and didn't seem to comfortable but we didn't have any problems with her licking her stitches or anything. We took her to the Oklahoma Humane Society Spay and Neuter Clinic and so it was WAY cheaper than at our vet. Our vet was quoting us about $300 to get her spayed and there it was $80 (including extra pain medicine) so that was really nice.
One of the things we had bought on Saturday was stuff to make burp rags for the baby. Brady really wanted to make some for him. He did awesome. He made 10 all together. Three of each of these fabrics and then one green one that Kolton picked out from the "scrap" fabric Joann's had. Kolton helped Brady sew the fabric on the cloth diaper by pushing the pedal. It was cute to watch. I love them all and I think Brady did an amazing job.
I worked on some packing while he sewed. :) These were the first two boxes I packed (of many).
Tuesday Kolton got sick. He had diarrhea and wasn't feeling too well. He ended up being sick until Friday with really bad diarrhea and a fever. One night it got up to over 104. He finally got over it but missed all of his fall break because of it. It was sad.
I had a doctor's appointment on the 17th and scheduled my cerclage removal and my induction. I was scheduled for my removal on the following Wednesday morning and the induction was scheduled for the 11th of November.
Saturday Brady and his dad moved a lot of our stuff out of our house. Jeff came and helped too because they couldn't get the fridge out by themselves. We had taken apart our beds and so they took those (expect for the mattresses) and all the boxes I had packed and most of the furniture. It was so weird!
Monday at school was "wear your favorite sport clothes" day for Red Ribbon Week. Kolton chose to wear his Thunder jersey. He was so handsome. :)
He loves taking silly pictures. Its so fun to do with him!
So on Tuesday I got a phone call from my doctor's office wondering why I wasn't at the hospital for my cerclage removal. I told them that it was supposed to be on Wednesday. She said that they had to change it to Tuesday and she was pretty sure she told me. I told her I hadn't heard anything so she said she'd talk to Dr. Miller and get back to me. She ended up having to switch it to Thursday. I was supposed to go to Chick Fil A with my friend Angela on Thursday so I texted her and told her I couldn't make it Thursday but could do Wednesday (the next day). So on Wednesday I show up to Chick Fil A and realize that Angela and Lindsey had set up a little surprise baby celebration for me. It was so sweet. I felt bad for making them switch the day at the last minute and making them try and get ahold of everyone to let them know but was grateful to them for doing it. Some people couldn't make it because of the day change but I'm so grateful for it all. It was a lot of fun hanging out and chatting with the girls. Jaycee was there too but she had left before we took this picture.
So Thursday morning Brady and I went up to the hospital to get my cerclage out. They just did it in labor and delivery. I had to put on a hospital gown and everything. It took a few minutes but it hurt like a mother. Oh man. It made me nauseous and I hated it. Haha. I was so glad to have it done! I don't know why I can't have a cerclage removal that goes well haha but at least it is done. Brady had taken the whole day off so he started moving stuff over to his parent's house that afternoon for us to move in. I can't believe we are about to have this baby! So crazy!
