So Chandler had a little Halloween party at daycare a couple of days before Halloween, I love the fact that her babysitter [Carla or G-maw] is so involved. When I arrived she was asleep amongst all the chaos- smh how does she do that.

 

She finally woke up and was so interested in everything and everyone around her. We decorated little pumpkins and sparkly ghosts.

She then had her picture made with an owl mask Carla made her in her Halloween pjs.

They then had festive snacks, which bug was too little to partake in, and everyone ran around on sugar highs.

On Halloween night we had my parents, my grandparents and Spencers mom over to pass out candy and see Chandler in her costume. We kept it simple with the meue: chili, caramel apple dip and caramel apple cupcakes... can you see a trend there :)

 Her dad picked out her costume this year and she was so stinking cute but she didnt stay in it long since she just stayed inside and slept.

Gender Reveal Party

So, as you know on Monday, February 3 we went for our 18 week appointment and to find out what Baby Wayne will officially be.  Just a short recap on that visit- baby had its legs bent, sitting on its feet with the umbilical cord between its legs... oh holy panic attack, I was a nervous wreck we wouldn't be able to find out, but we did!!  The tech put the pics in an envelope and knowing us all too well she also put them inside of a folded card and sealed it shut- I admit I held it up to light to see if I could peek.  So that afternoon we passed it off to my lovely sister who would be the only one to truly know the gender for an entire week... shes a stronger woman than me, she didn't tell a soul the entire week!

So on February 9th we met our friends and family at the shooting range where Spencer is a member to find out with everyone what we are having [this reveal was so appropriate for our family]-

 

So even though Spencer said that he was preparing for a girl I think I can honestly say that he is no where near prepared in his head- bless him he is a nervous wreck for her to arrive!
