Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

This is, surprisingly, a pretty busy week for Jamie and I. We've not only been trying to get all of our baby stuff in order, but we need to get some last minute holiday errands done before we take off again for Florida for the next couple of weeks. I think that one of the fun things about the holidays is the yearly tradition of baking cookies while listening to some good ole fashioned Christmas music....always gets me in the mood. So, on Saturday, we baked some cookies and brought them to our neighbors to say Merry Christmas. They turned out well (don't they look good in the picture above...mmmm), but it was another great reason to visit with our neighbors and share our holiday spirit. So, due to our busy schedule this week, this is the last posting of the year. We hope that you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Love to you all!

About done!

Hey all! So, I've had some requests to post some more pictures of what we have bought for the house. We haven't done that much since the last pictures that I posted, but as I mentioned in another entry, we did get a rug, and I finally found a picture to go above our fireplace. I still need to find some decorations for our mantel. We're stoked to finally have a picture up there, because we were so sick of just looking at an empty wall.

Speaking of shopping.......Jamie and I went shopping today for some of what seems like the multitude of baby stuff that we need to buy. It was fun actually and we got some cool stuff that we feel good about. When we got home, I was even more excited, because the 6 piece bedding set and mobile that I ordered for Hayden's room had been delivered. I couldn't find any that I really loved at Babies R Us or other baby stores, so I did some research, and ordered it online. When we get his room more complete, I'll take pictures so you can all check it out. Until then, we're still working our way through the massive list we have before our little guy gets here, which is quickly approaching.

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving Jamie and I headed down to Orlando to eat turkey, pumpkin pie and hang out in the sun. We had a great time and it was nice to see the fam.

Belly Shot - 7 Months Pregnant!

I've had a lot of emails about how my pregnancy is going and many requests for some belly shots. Well, here ya go. I'm officially into my third trimester and really can't believe it! So far everything has been going good, and I've been really lucky. Hayden is kicking me a lot now and I had my first real "motherly" moment this past week. Bryan got us all tickets to see The Blue Man Group at Universal Studios this past week in Orlando. It was a great show, and surprisingly, a lot funnier than I thought for random bluemen that don't talk. There were a lot of loud drum beats/music that I think scared little Hayden in there. Until that night, I had never felt him kick around so much........made me quite the paranoid mom. But the little man is doing well, and now's the point in my pregnancy where he'll really start growing.
