Halloween Fun!

The month of October is full of great Halloween parties and activities! We filled this weekend with a few of them....
On Friday night we went to the Fall Festival at Adie's school. Adie was a little weirded out by all of the activities that were taking place in her normally calm school. But I think she enjoyed it a little bit! On Saturday morning we went to a local photography studio and donated canned goods for a free portrait and Saturday afternoon we went to the Denver Zoo for "Boo at the Zoo". It was a ton of fun seeing all of the kids running around in their costumes, trick or treating and seeing the animals. And finally we had great weather for this weekends outdoor adventures!

Baby post...

We'll we are 18 weeks prego today (Saturday). I'm surviving! For all of my girlfriends who enjoy being pregnant, who are still running and kick boxing at 8 months along... good for you! But for the rest of you... who hate it... I'm with you! I hate being fat, I have a funny looking belly and I can barely walk much less run or kick box! But the end result is oh so fabulous! Just look at how dang cute Adie is! So needless to say, I just can't wait to meet the newest (and last) addition to our family.... a baby girl! We had an ultrasound at 17 weeks and the Dr. said the baby's legs were crossed most of the time but she really thought it was a girl. So there you go! We will have another ultrasound at 20 weeks... the official ultrasound and double check again. We will let you know if they say the same! So here is my 18 week pics and our 17 week ultrasound pics.

Adeline's 2nd Birthday

We celebrated Adie's 2nd birthday a few times over this year. First at the beginning of the month we had a party at the park... see pics below. Then on Sunday Oct 19, the day before her birthday, we had brunch and cake at Grandjan & Grandpa's house, and on Monday her real birthday, we celebrated again at Kristin & Ryan's house. (their house had something to do with Monday night football, the Bronco's and Ryan's HDTV, but we won't talk about that). I think Adie had a great month long celebration and got lots of fun new toys! Her favorites... numerous new babies, she's quite the little mommy! She loves to put them all "night, night" on the floor and covers them in blankets. Blankets consisting of dish towels and fabric samples. I swear sometimes it looks like we have a bunch of dead bodies laying all over the floor (I'll have to get a pic of that). And her other favorites... stickers and colors! What an artist!

October 20- Adeline's actual Birthday!

I know!

I know, I know I said I would post the pics of the latest ultrasound and the "it's a ...." on Monday and it's now Thursday and I still haven't done it... but I have been soooo busy with work. We have a huge residential project installing next week and I have been shopping, spending someone else's money which I so love to do, everyday since mid last week. I haven't been getting home til 7:30 or so. Any sympathy yet? Any how I promise I will do it soon! Just keeping you on your toes! And maybe I will add a baby bump pic or too because it's gotten to be a bit more than a bump.... I guess that happens!

Adeline Grace Rump(h) & Opera

October catch up....

So despite the fact that I have not blogged in a month... we do have lots to share! It has been a very crazy month! So here starts our catch up! And just to hang it out there for you to wonder I visited the Dr. last Monday and had an ultrasound. And we are having a .............
sorry you'll have to wait until tommorrow I didn't get a chance to scan the ultrasound pics and I think the news needs a picture! (cast your vote now before it's to late) So here we go with the catch up starting at the most recent all the way back to the beginning of the month.



Monday is Adeline's 2nd birthday... WOW they grow fast! Where did the last 2 years go? So next week at school Adie will graduate from the "toddler" class into the "Two's" class. We think she will really enjoy it... the kids were beginning to be a little to young for her in the toddler class. But we know she will miss her very favorite teacher... she talks about her all the time! Miss. Ashley or as Adie says Ashee. But all in this world is meant to be because as it turns out last Friday was Miss. Ashee's last day, we were very sad. However there seems to be no looking back on this one, Ashee is no longer an option so off to Two's we go! Good luck Ashee and Adie!

Colby came in town the 2nd weekend of the month and of course I had a long list of activities.... We started the day at the corn maze and pumpkin festival and then planned on ending the day with Colby's 5th annual Halloween party at Six Flags. However, the weather didn't cooperate! We did the corn maze and pumkin patch in the rain... um ya I'm commited to my plans. But Colby's Halloween party took a different turn of events because Six Flags doesn't run the rides in the rain we decided to have the kids over to spend the night instead. This was very low key compared to years past! And then the weekend couldn't come to an end without the viewing of the Broncos game! So off the boys headed to sit in the rain and cold to watch the broncos play... to bad they lost... That's ok we are still doing pretty good for the season!Image

Image yep still lost! It took us 32 minutes to get through it... which I guess is pretty good, some people were reporting an hour and a half... that's when you bail at the emergency exit if you ask me!

We celebrated Adie's 2nd birthday on October 4 (her birthday is the 20th). We had it outside at the park across the street from the house and did it early in hopes that the weather would still be warm.... unfortunately it was windy and cold but the kids did seem to have a great time in the bounce house.
