Fall at the Franke house

Leah is at such a fun age this year. She was really able to enjoy the pumpkin patch and she even painted her first pumpkin. We had our first snow October 26th and she was SO excited about it. This is the first year we will be taking her trick-or-treating. We didn't do it last year because we figured she was just too young to understand it. But this year, she is super excited. She decided about a month ago that she wanted to be Ariel.

In other news. Nick GRADUATES in 7 WEEKS!!!! We are so excited for him to be done and SO proud of him!

Pregnancy news: Not much to report right now. I'm hungry and tired all the time, but other then that it's been smooth sailing. We have our 20 week ultrasound in 3 WEEKS and will hopefully find out the gender! (so start putting in your guesses now :). Leah is going to come with us to the appointment with us so she can see the baby and find out if she's having a brother or sister. She is getting VERY excited to be a big sister. We checked out an 'I'm a Big Sister' book for her at the library and a Dora the Explorer 'Dora's a Big Sister' movie. She talks about taking care of the baby all the time and is constantly kissing and hugging my belly and saying "love you baby".

Some pics for your enjoyment :)


HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

very cute mermaid. she's so grown up! I'm very excited to know the gender! You will love having a little helper. Shad and Warren do everything for me. Older siblings are a great investment. They are my only way to shower everyday and get my makeup on.
