Halloween

Halloween is actually my LEAST favorite "holiday." I like the little kids dressing up in cute costumes part, but I HATE the blood and knife costumes the older kids do. There's nothing like opening your front door to someone with an ax through their head. However, I'm in the spirit and ready to see my nephews today. Earlier I made some Halloween popcorn to add to their goodie buckets. Kamden is going to be a hockey player and Kason is Buzz Lightyear. I'm sure they'll be cute:)! Halloween popcorn! It's yummy!

The Agony of Defeat

I ALWAYS go to all home games at Tech. Somehow this year things went a little crazy. This past Saturday I FINALLY got to head to a much anticipated Saturday afternoon at The Jones. I was sooo excited! Before the game we had a flyover. These are always exciting! Pretty cool!

Unfortunately, after the flyover the game started. We played OSU. We'll just leave it as Potts isn't my favorite quarterback of all time:(.

The next home game is against Missouri on November 6th. Brandi and Travis (the friends I have season tickets with) won't be able to make it. Andrew would rather stay home to watch Texas (however he's going with me to the Houston game on the 27th!), so I got to invite my friends, Mandy and Shara, to go to the game. Mandy is so excited I'm not sure she'll be able to sleep the night before the game!

My Stud

Andrew has been gone this week to a training in Midland for work. Boy, did I miss him! He has been so sweet putting up with me. He has been VERY good about humoring me and my cravings. I crave queso from Chilis, beans and rice from La Fiesta, and chili dogs from Weinerschnitzel. NOOO, I'm not picky...really;). Andrew and the drill we got for the wedding.

Ahhhhhh...my stud:)

Andrew trying out the new drill!

Baby's Heartbeat

We had our 3rd doctor's visit today! We got to hear the heartbeat! I recorded the heartbeat on my phone while we were there. I thought that part was pretty cool! Our next visit is a BIG one. On November 4th we will found out PINK or BLUE!!!

The First Baby Gift

Everything has been a little crazy since announcing to everyone that we're going to have a baby! I have been overwhelmed with the thoughfulness that has been shown. For some reason I was most worried about my students' reactions. I told them by playing Hangman and the phrase was...Mrs. Watts is going to have a baby. It was so hard not to bust out laughing during the game. We had to spell out the ENTIRE phrase before the light bulb went on in their heads. I saw it click on most of their faces and their reactions were sooo sweet. They are sooo excited.
This is one of the cards I received that was so thoughful.

Sterling gave me this card and it was so sweet. Love that kid!

This morning my sweet Zakaya came in with this gift in a bag. I asked her what the gift was for and she it's because I'm having a baby. I opened it up and found the most thoughtful gifts for Baby Dub. I have been sooo tempted to buy a few things here and there, but I'm afraid once I start I won't stop! So I'm forcing myself to wait until we know pink or blue. This gift was so thoughtful because it will work for boy or girl. It's also special because it's the first gift for the baby. Hopefully if we have a girl she will be as sweet and thoughtful as Zakaya:).

And a funny story...during all the craziness of the announcement, Reece raised his hand and asked what we would name the baby. I told him the names for a boy and a girl. He looked at me very seriously and said, "Hmph, well I hope it's a boy then!" He doesn't like our girl name:)! LOL
