moments in the mommyhood - pumpkins, pumpkins & more pumpkins

we hit up one of our fave local farms for some low down and dirty pumpkin picking on the weekend. we got covered in mud, wheelbarrowed ourselves silly, picked out a momma, poppa and baby pumpkin and took lots and lots of pictures.

i wanted to make some roasted pumpkin seeds but have yet to find a recipe i really enjoy. anyone have any great tips/recipes for using pumpkin seeds? i would love to hear about it! we also did some spooky carving as well, but our lazy butts haven't taken a picture of them yet....hopefully we'll stop eating candy long enough to get a shot of those - we think they turned out spooktacular!!!!

what are your halloween plans this year? what did you carve your pumpkins as?

and to read all your wonderful, encouraging and just plain lovely emails! thank you so much for all of your kind words, tips, stories and thoughts, it has truly made these last 2 horrible months that much easier to bear, and man, have they been bad. let's just say i didn't know i could vomit that much and leave it that :) i send hugs to all of you and thank you for sticking around and not unsubscribing from my little ol'blog - it would have broke my heart :(

i won't be back to posting normally just yet, but i am happy to say i made it to the 2nd trimester and the babies heart is beating away and we are good to go. thank you again for all your prayers during the rough patch. in the meantime i am going to take some time to reassess the goals of luvinthemommyhood and will be back with some changes (maybe) and some new surprises as well! so stay tuned and enjoy all the costumes, trick or treats, candy overdoses and spooky pumpkin surprises in the next week or so - i know we will be!

what's your favorite new album of the moment?
