I love the kid stuff, though.<br /><br />However, I did have fun dressing when I was pregnant with Calum & Willa (I was big at Halloween time with them). We went to parties that year where costumes were "required." I was the bowling ball (I put three paper finger holes on my belly) and Brett was the bowling pin (he wore a white shirt with two red stripes sharpied in at the top). It was simple and fun.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05170500094049647497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-63847930759519726032010-10-25T09:58:38.201-06:002010-10-25T09:58:38.201-06:00Back pain can be excruciating and usually does not...Back pain can be excruciating and usually does not disappear with a simple medicine instead need more potent drugs such as <a href="http://www.findrxonline.com/buy-hydrocodone-online.htm" rel="nofollow">hydrocodone</a> that can be buy online without a prescription but being so powerful side effects.Antonio Colemanhttp://a1hydrocodone.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-41052250460414057582010-10-25T08:43:15.701-06:002010-10-25T08:43:15.701-06:00easy and awesome (unless you know people who get o...easy and awesome (unless you know people who get offended easily) pregnancy costume: put on slippers & sweatpants, put hair into pigtails, and carry around a six-pack w/an unlit cigarette hanging out of your mouth. instant white trash costume! :)Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287792370490363047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-40911041571820318622010-10-25T08:41:27.800-06:002010-10-25T08:41:27.800-06:00I'm lousy at dressing up too. . . not my favor...I'm lousy at dressing up too. . . not my favorite.Janssenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178196211079230972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-39504645478789627042010-10-25T08:30:57.255-06:002010-10-25T08:30:57.255-06:00Ooh, I like Swistle's theory.

It's not us, it's the pumpkins!<br /><br />Although it might be us, too, in a different way: Helen has been asking and asking and ASKING whether we can roast pumpkin seeds this year, and when, and "We're going to roast pumpkin seeds this year, right? They're so yummy"--and yet the only pumpkin seeds she's ever eaten are the crummy, oily, semi-burnt things I have tried and and failed at making every year. So clearly it's possible that the pumpkin seed yumminess is a matter that depends heavily on perception.Melospizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02967972017593146047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-8450419812924841432010-10-25T07:59:16.301-06:002010-10-25T07:59:16.301-06:00we also fail every time we try to do pumpkin seeds...we also fail every time we try to do pumpkin seeds. I clearly remember doing it every year as kids, so I don't know what my problem is but like Swistle's suggestion of blaming the pumpkins. <br /><br />Back pain. Ugh. <br />Water aerobics really helped my back pain. A LOT. <br />Chiropractor, and ice instead of heat. I hope it doesn't get worse. I can clearly remember having to CRAWL through the house with child #3, but oddly enough I had virtually no back pain with child #4.

I remember them being SO delicious when I was younger, and all we get are scorch-flavored brittle shell splinters. BUT! Last year I read somewhere that some kinds of pumpkins are better for seeds than others! This was a revelation!

We went on a trip to the East Coast, leaving on Halloween. It was awesome, but I was so exhausted, and got so sick (and couldn't take anything! bah!). It felt like the pregnancy was taking forever. And then, when it was Thanksgiving and then Christmas, it seemed like it had flown by. <br />ps. I don't blame you for not wanting to dress up. Many costume ideas for pregnant women seem overly cheesey, and nothing is really flattering (at least it wasn't on me: see last year's costume of The Virgin Mary. I looked like a tent.).Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963064478685341998noreply@blogger.com
