I can't believe how cold it is and it is only October. My mom was telling me the other day how it is usually not this cold here around this time. I mean, we have already had snow. Which is weird. It usually doesn't start to snow until after Thanksgiving! This makes me think that this winter is going to be a very cold one. But hey, that's what heaters and plenty of blankets are for, right?

Speaking of blankets, I bought a really nice comforter last week on overstock.com. It was really cheap. I couldn't find one at a better price anywhere else! I will be getting it tomorrow. Which I am so thankful for. It has been so cold these past few nights. The blanket I sleep with just is not cutting it at all. So, I can't wait to cuddle up in my new one! It's going to be so nice! Yay for new blankets!

Today I had to wake up early to get ready to take Jeremy to get his pictures taken. Well, we got there and everything started out fine. Until they asked for me to get him down to just his diaper. Well, Jeremy was not having any of that. He started yelling like there was no tomorrow. He didn't want everyone to see his sexy bod! So, we had to reschedule for December 5th. Hopefully by then he won't be so modest. haha.

Tomorrow I have to get up early again. Jeremy has a doctor's appointment. He will be getting his shots. He will not like that at all. But hey, what choice does he have? He has to be a healthy baby! I just can't wait until it's done and over with. I hate seeing him cry.

I can't believe how cold it is! It feels like we just jumped right into winter! Haha. Last night it got all the way down to 32 degrees. I know that's not a lot, but it's pretty dang cold! I am not looking forward to winter. I know it is just going to be so cold.

Today I went to Hartford City with my sister, Jamie and Jeremy. We had fun. I ate a triple patty burger at Burger King. The lady working the register looked at me and asked, "You can eat all that?!" Heck yes I can! I ate all of that and my fries. No problem at all. My sister couldn't finish her fries. What a pud.

My sister is making delicious cupcakes right now. Oh how I love cupcakes. Speaking of delicious sweets, here's a picture of the cake cookies I made last week that I have been forgetting to post :



They were very tasty. I will have to make more cookies sometime this week. Depending on if I get my bank card. I really hope that comes soon. I want to look into getting rc helicopters!! They look like fun!

The other day I took a trip to Bluffton. It was okay. I did not do anything exciting. Just ate at Hardees. Which is so good. But it isn't worth driving 24 miles for. I weighed myself last night, and I have gained 4 pounds in the last week and a half! How crazy is that? Tomorrow my sister and I will be working out. We will be working out Monday through Friday. The weekends we are going to have off. So, it should be fun. I am kind of excited for it. I enjoy doing that with her! We have loads of laughs with that. Maybe if we work out and keep up with it, I will get us a Canon Powershot! It will be our award! We will see!

Nothing much has really been going on lately. I have just been trying to do as much as I can. I need to make plenty of money in order to get everyone gifts for Christmas. The joys of having a big family. I feel sorry for my mom. She can't just get away with buying us each one gift. I mean, I would not mind. But the little ones might. Actually, they would. So it is my mom that will be spending the most. But that is nothing new. She loves to see the tree exploding with gifts. I like it too. It looks so awesome. Too bad we can't have it like that year round! How awesome would that be? I think after Christmas I will look into travel deals to send my mom on a nice little trip. I bet she would really like that! We will see!
