Basement, Pumpkin Patches, & New rooms!

So Bob had a 3 day weekend!!! And we spent it at home! Can you believe it? We got SO much done around the house that it isn't even funny! Bob completely cleaned up the basement and organized it, while I went through all the old baby clothes and pulled the appropriate sizes out for Camden. Bob cleaned out the office closet and we are using that room for the baby since we aren't going to be here too terribly long after he is born. So, the closet is getting full of newborn clothes and D's room has changed too...read on for further details!

So Sunday Bob & I decide to take Decovin to a pumpkin patch so that he could pick out a pumpkin...figured it would be a fun family affair...WRONG! We get to the nearest pumpkin patch in our area and it was so small that the pumpkins had already been picked through and nothing was left...then we tried to find the second one but they don't have signs posted ANYWHERE!!! What is up with that?!? Those were the ONLY two w/in reasonable driving distance and nothing...so we went to Walmart and picked out a pumpkin...whoopie...Oh well...at least the picture turned out cute:

Then on Sunday, Bob & I decided it was time to move Decovin to a "big boy bed"...so Bob finally had time to take apart the crib & bed and swap them. He slept really well, for his first night, we thought. We had a hard time getting him to GO to sleep but he finally got tired enough a little after 9pm that he crashed. Around 1am he woke up but only because he couldn't breathe...poor guy has a little cold & cough and so that scared him a bit to wake up not being able to breathe properly...so Bob gave him some nose drops and laid with him for a bit and he fell back asleep and slept until 8:30am! We thought he did really well for his first night in a new bed and having a cold. :-) I was so proud of him. We are keeping the door shut b/c he is a "wanderer" and too curious to not leave it shut. We still close the gate at the top of the stairs also. Decovin in his new bed:

Oh and how did he get this cold you ask? Yeah, I'm a bad mom...Friday it was SOOO nice outside that I turned off the heat and opened some windows...then at night I shut the windows but forgot to turn back on the heat...so D woke up at 6am with a runny nose and frozen toes...poor baby! I felt awful...well now he has an added cough since this morning...but I am hoping he bounces back soon...he is still acting like his normal happy self so I am not concerned yet. :-)

Tonight we are going to the Parents As Teachers "Boo-Bash" that they are throwing. We will dress Decovin up and he will get to "trick-or-treat" and do some activities, etc. I'm looking forward to it...hope D has fun too! :-) Well, that is all for now folks!
