Update: Halloween up until now

The weekend before Halloween was my first weekend off since the beginning of July! It was AMAZING. I totally took the weekends for granted before, definitely not anymore. We had a Halloween party on Saturday and I think it's becoming an annual thing. This was our second year! I ran out of time trying to think of a creative costume, so I just wore something we had from our luau we had to welcome Abigail a few months back. Jim and Abigail were Alan and the baby from The Hangover and Jasper was a hotdog! Here is a family pic from the night:

 

Last Monday night at work I developed mastitis. It was horrible and I hope I never get it again! Luckily, it was my last night on and had 3 days off afterwards, so I had time to rest and recover. My mom was off that day so she came over and watched Abby after I came home from work so I could sleep. I don't know what I'd do without the help from my mom! I eventually went to the doctor's office and she confirmed it was mastitis and I've been on antibiotics since then. But still, breastmilk is what's best for Abigail, so I'm going to keep on keeping on for as long as I can.

 

Halloween night I was still recuperating, but I couln't miss out! This was Abigail's 1st Halloween! Jim, Abigail and I grilled up hotdogs in our front yard and also passed out bottled water and candy (of course). We did the same thing last year and it was a hit, so we decided to do it again this year. Some of the trick or treaters even remembered us from last year and referred to us as 'the hot dog house.' Lol. People really seemed to appreciate it. We met our new next door neighbors and also got to chat with our other neighbors. I love connecting with our neighbors!

 

Here are some pics from when we went to the neighborhood park this past week. This was Abigail's first time in her stroller WITHOUT her infant carseat! She is such a big girl now! She will be 6 months this Thursday! Crazy!

 

 

Today Jim and I voted. Then we went to dinner with his parents at Flemings. :)
