Whew! It's been a while without a post...life has just been crazy! Recently, I was having a hard time catching a deep breath and had a lot of chest tightness so I sucked it up and when in to see the doctor. As it turns out, they are pretty certain I have asthma. Apparently, that goes hand in hand with eczema & allergies...and I've had eczema my entire life. When I got pregnant with Caleb my eczema disappeared...and now I've got asthma! It's crazy how much a pregnancy can change you. Anyways, he put me on Singulair & gave me a rescue inhaler. A week later I went back to the doctor with my symptoms almost completely gone (yay!). He had me do a pulmonary function test which came back "puzzling" but he said because the Singulair is working to remain on it and return in 6 months to 1 year for a repeat.
Caleb is doing amazingly well. He never ceases to amaze us and having him truly makes each day feel so special! He is crawling and he is pulling himself up. He now walks along the couch and just thinks it's the funniest thing in the whole world. Very soon, as soon as he can pull himself up very sturdy and I think it'll be safe enough we'll be getting him the push walking toy. YIKES! Already. Seems like it's way too soon. Afterall, just yesterday he wouldn't squirm away when I tried to change his butt!
So we've had this ongoing rash with Caleb. One of the providers in my office and his ped. have both looked at it and prescriped medication or over the counter concoctions. The OTC method had it just about completely cleared up when we stopped using it every diaper change and BAM it's back again. So we took his Pamper's back last night (had an upopened box) and exchanged it for Huggies. Ahhh, beautiful. It's almost completely cleared this morning. Funny how he's been fine since birth and now suddenly develops this rash. But my OCD led me to Google and I find it's fairly common with the Pampers. Anyways, he's now a Huggies boy.
Halloween Costume: DINOSAUR! So cute! I don't have a picture of it on my work computer but I can assure you my little monster makes the cutest little dinosaur. :)
Saturday we went to the Pumpkin Patch! It was so much fun...even Caleb really enjoyed himself! I took a ton of pictures of him and then we picked out a "perfect" pumpkin! Tanner has some strict criteria but eventually we found one that met his standards. :)
Saturday evening we went to Tanner's sisters house for a BBQ, UFC fight night and some scrapbooking. I got a few things done but I'm by no means caught up so I really need to get on that so I don't get behind with the holiday's coming!!
Speaking of holidays...I already have TWO presents purchased (not including what we've gotten for CDub)! And while to some, that may not seem like quite a feat...for me it is. I never, ever purchase anything prior to Black Friday and this year I am already on top of things! WooHoo.
Well, that's mostly everything that I can think of worth posting!

I love the pics, especially the family one - so cute! I'm sorry to hear you have asthma, my sister has suffered with really bad asthma her whole life and it's not fun for her. I have never heard of Pampers causing rashes. Huggies never worked for either of my kids, they leaked. Serena is in Luvs now because they are cheapest, but if Pampers is on sale I grab those. It is funny how different diapers work for different kids. And ask any parent and they are either in the PAMPERS camp or HUGGIES camp, no one likes both :).
