We celebrated Halloween.
Somehow, I pulled off a dinner (I even made chili!)
We had the usual Halloween dinner suspects:
dry ice with root beer
charcuterie board covered with flies and bugs
sourdough bread and
Jane made cookies, which we didn't eat because I think
we were all sugared out.
not because I wanted to eat treats, but because this pregnancy has made me
have the WORST taste in my mouth ALL THE TIME, and
so I keep eating sugary stuff.
This pregnancy has been so strange.
After dinner, we drove out of Stillstead country
and into our old neighborhood so Lottie could
find her friends, and we could see the fun decorations and
watch the kids running around.
I love Halloween.
Earlier this morning, Jane and Lottie (who skipped school)
went to a Barre3 class at the studio, both wearing matching Halloween bows.
I was sad to miss the class, but vigorous exercise physically hurts
my super non-stretchy pregnant skin. So I'm skipping out.
Next year I WON'T be pregnant and WILL have a little
baby girl whom I get to introduce ALL my favorite
Halloween everything's!
I get to read ALL my Halloween books to her,
and watch ALL my favorite Halloween cartoons together.
It can't come soon enough!
