Halloween 2010

 All the kids were rock stars this year and stayed out from 5:30-8:15. They got lots of candy and had tons of fun. We went into down town Smithfield for the first hour and then finished off in our neighborhood. The trick-or-treat hours were 5:30 to 8:30 and the kids did their best to use almost all the time.

For Those of You Who Asked!!!

Well I am 18 lbs heavier and in week 22. So tracking a whole lot better than last pregnancy, but still getting FAT!!! She kicks like crazy and loves it when I eat. Michael, Austin and I have still not come up with a name, but when we do it will not be revealed until she is born...SO DON"T ASK!!

Playing Basketball

 Austin is getting real good at shooting hoops; he is so proud of himself every time he makes a shot. He asked me last night if he could come home and practice every day after school.

Shooting hoops with some friends.

Carving Pumpkins

 The kids enjoyed digging into the pumpkins...

 ...and drawing cute faces, which were a little difficult for mommy to carve...

...but she managed!

Early Morning

Early Sunday morning we got a shot of  three generations of Pelto boys, and grammie of course, before they headed home to Michigan.

Crabbing

 How proud they were.

 The boys watching grandpa reel one in.

A blue Crab...

Grandpa is lucky to still have his ear after how close Michael put the crab to him!

A Preview of Halloween Fun

Austin loves his costume...so much so he has worn it twice since he got it!

Skeleton Pumpkin

Austin was posing on the porch with his skeleton pumpkin that he just completed. The mask is from a completely different project that daddy was working on with paint. He painted a wall in the computer room with magnetic chalk board paint so we could exhibit all of Austin's art work and have fun with chalk all in one.

Austin enjoyed putting together his skeleton pumpkin that Grammie sent.

Our baby girl

Michael and I are proud to announce that we will be adding a baby girl to our family. Here are some of the sneak peeks of our cutie. She is so active and defiantly put on a show for us. She really seems to like her hands as she was waving them in front of her face quite a bit. We had a good ultrasound tech who spent about 20 minutes with us showing us just how precious our new little one is. I cried when she told us it was a girl and the ultrasound tech said, "oh were you hoping for a boy?" I said. "No, we have a little guy at home I am just so happy to have a a little boy and to be getting a baby girl." Austin was so excited he told his teacher when I picked him up from school. He always kisses my belly and says things to the baby like, "Hi baby this is Austin your big brother." He was hoping for a girl too.
