35 Weeks Preggo and Owen's Crafts

Another week has passed and fall is in full swing!  It has been a lovely 70 degrees in the desert... it's wonderful!!  We had family pictures over the weekend so I'll share those as soon as I get them back this week.  I have been totally consumed with baby on the brain.  I'm trying to get things organized and ready for his arrival so I can relax and enjoy the holidays.  I have been doing last minute shopping for diapers, pacis, bottles, ect.  The contractions have been coming and going often, but he still has a few weeks of baking to do!  I am officially 35 weeks today.  I start my weekly doctors visits on Monday, including the dreadful cervical checks, but crossing my fingers he makes his debut before Christmas.  Here's the beautiful 35 week bump... 

 Kam has been slammed at school!  They are finishing up last minute projects and this week she has had late night rehearsals getting ready for their dance concerts.  Owen has been bringing home all his fun crafts from school...

 The teacher sent home this turkey for the kiddos to decorate at home and Owen only wanted a GOLD turkey.  He painted the whole thing Gold.. here's the finished product.  While making it I kept offering suggestions to add more texture or put more into it, like painting macaroni gold or M&Ms. I even offered to glue on some real gold feathers.

"Mom...that is so disturbing! You want to paint food and put it on my turkey? It has paper feathers ...why would you need real feathers? It's fine. It's gold, just like I like it."

I am wanting to decorate for Christmas but my husband is huge on letting Turkey day be it's own Holiday!  We have so much to be Thankful for this year.  I'll be back tomorrow and Friday with lots of fun pictures and updates.  Can you believe it's almost Thanksgiving??
