baby name

SO... first things first, we have decided on a name for the baby!! We wanted something original, that you don't hear very often. As much as we would have loved to pick another musical name to go along with Cadence, there just aren't any other practical musical terms that sound good as a boys name! So, after a lot of looking around we finally settled on the name Truman Scott Peterson. We both like the name Truman, and like how its not common! Scott is Davids middle name, which he just has to pItalicass down as a family thing! But we both love it and think it sounds good!! Cadence likes it too, she can almost say Truman, but it comes out more like "seamen." And she also likes to call him "brother" because she's very excited to be a big sister! So i put up a "baby bump" picture for you all, Since I'm 20 weeks now! This picture was actually taken a little over a week ago, and i was kinda pushing my tummy out. Although now, that's what my tummy looks like without pushing it out! I'm starting to feel FAT!! Which is no fun!!


Cadence's first time trick or treating went well! At first, she was having a tantrum and didn't want to get her dress on, but then she finally gave in and wanted to be a princess! So we took her around the neighborhood together for a while, then I snuck back home to hand out candy, because a lot of kids were showing up! She wouldn't say 'trick or treat' she just held up her bucket to get her candy!! But she had a good time. Then afterwards, she had to enjoy some of the candy of course, and then was ridiculously HYPER for the remainder of the night! But all in all, it was a success. We started to run out of candy kind of early, so we went through Cadence's candy to pick out the candy we didn't want or like, and handed that out!! and within a few days, we had all eaten all of the candy. (meaning we all gained a pound or two, and lost some self respect. LOL)


I am SO GLAD that it's almost Thanksgiving!! I have been craving thanksgiving dinner for months now!! I cant wait to cook again! I've also been in quite the Christmas mood! I already painted some acrylic Christmas decorations, and I really want to get my decorations out, but David thinks it's still too early! So i have a few fall things still out, and I think within the next 2 weeks I'll slowly put them away and start to put up winter items, and then pull out the Christmas stuff!! I don't see why it would be too early, there's nothing wrong with making Christmas last longer!!
