SIX FLAGS trip


Here was a fun trip we took to SIX FLAGS FIESTA TEXAS. They had pulled out all the Halloween Decor and it was a fun time just walking around the park. Of course the boys had fun on the rides too!

Cael is giving Ben the thumbs up before he is launched up into the air.

What was so funny is Ben really wanted to take Brecon on a 'big' ride because He and Cael had been having so much fun together. He had Brecon stand up next to the measuring stick that tells you if you are able to go on the ride or not and he said "stand on your tip-toes". He barely touched the line this way, and so they thought they would be allowed to ride. I kept saying "he's too small, they'll never let him on".... well, I stand corrected. I was able to snap a few shots of all 3 of them on the ride I would describe as the "SCRAMBLER" before the camera died. DON'T THEY ALL LOOK SUPER EXCITED?


*So I may have mentioned that our new little guy is due around the 18th of November. However, with some recent checkups for baby boy #3, it was discovered that he is a bit smaller than he should be and the term is intrauterine growth restriciton or IUGR. I now have been going to the hospital twice a week for non-stress tests and meeting with the maternal-fetal specialist to see how this little guy is doing. So far so good, however, with this type of complication they like to deliver the baby sooner rather than later and setting an induction date would put us having this little guy in just 2 weeks!!!! This Friday they will be doing another measurement to see if he has changed since the last time, and then we will talk to them about going in for a delivery. With information like this I have gone through quite the range of emotions, but I feel like I am leveling out until this baby is here. THEN... I'll have a whole new set of hormonal induced emotions to deal with. We will have more info after Friday, but for now we are just going wait and pray... and start getting down the baby boy stuff!
