Fall, birthdays, and baby on the way!

So this may be a short post because after a great pirate pizza birthday party for a fabulous five year old this 9 month pregnant mamma is ready for bed.

So we have had a great fall, which is my favorite time of the year, I wish it would last for a few more months! The transition back to the house had gone really well. We are not loving the back and forth so much and we miss Scot A LOT during the week but we have so much to be thankful for and so many blessings.

Ellie had been sick for the past almost two weeks. Just in the past two days her fever has broke so we are praying she is on the mend. Mateo turned five this past week, I know I can't believe it, where has the time gone?! We had a birthday party for him tonight with grandparents, friends and cousins. It was busy but so much fun and Te was in birthday heaven. After everyone left, he said "this was the BEST pirate birthday party ever mom!" It was worth the messy house, swollen feet, and prep to see that beautiful face light up.

We are also only two weeks from due date. So it may mean that we could meet this little Powell any time now! I have to confess the pic above is actually about a month ago. We haven't been very proactive in getting preggo pics. It may be the trying to keep up with a 3 and 5 year old, not sure!

I can't believe Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner. I love both holidays and hope with a new baby coming I will be able to enjoy and remember them this year. I sure I will it may just been in a sleep deprived exhausted state :)

So that is all I got tonight, is pirate party mom needs some sleep.
