When I was pregnant with Sidney and we just had Carolyn, we all came down with a stomach bug and I seriously rethought having children. I didn't know how I was going to be sick and take care of a living thing. Flash forward several years later and I laugh at myself back then... O to only have one child to take care of and have the stomach virus go through. We spent the first part of October with you guessed it the stomach bug going through all of our family. Fun times and why my floor was covered with blankets. We survived though and hopefully won't be dealing with this again anytime soon... knock on wood.
Of course we spent a lot of time through out the month of October watching football.
While we were in Germany most Carolina games were on during the middle of the night and I didn't wake up for them. I had forgotten how entertaining Brian can be during a game.
Couple of pictures of the kids sporting their Gamecock gear....
Love Thomas's face in this picture. He is still unsure about Payson but slowly is starting to not look like a deer in the head lights when she tries to love on him. She is still totally in LOVE with him.
Another big thing for ME that happened this month is Thomas started sleeping through the night. Hallelujah!! He also started sleeping in his own room and crib. He was definitely my toughest newborn and I am beyond thrilled that he is turning into such a chill little boy.
Brian's classmates here at ACSC and their families at one of the gatherings they had during October. School has been flying by for him and luckily he is in class with a great group. We will find out soon whether we will be moving this summer or next. I am trying not to stress about if or where we may go next.
Also attended our first Halloween Carnival at Carolyn's school.
All the girls had such a great time. They loved everything that led up to Halloween this year.
Most Tuesday and Thursday evenings and every Saturday morning during the month of October we spent on the soccer field. Here are a couple more soccer pictures...
Brian's cousin Chris came to visit us and got to meet the newest little Donehue.
And finally we celebrated the great American holiday of Halloween.
Brian and I had just as much fun as the girls watching them run house to house with
Miss Payson trailing behind them.
Now I can finally retire the giraffe costume (probably the only outfit I own that all four of them will have worn). Crazy to think he will be running around next Halloween with them.
