Christmas Tree

It took us a few mins but we got the coat buttoned... Alice wasn't a happy camper about being squeezed in there (I might have a bruised rib) but i was A LOT warmer!!

This is it! As Ann would say "The most perfect Christmas Tree" and it is!

Okay when we first arrived ann would hug every little tree and ask if this one could be hers and as she would hug it she said"it's just a perfect little tree" we finally convinced her that ours should be bigger!

So we picked out our Christmas tree. This has to be

one of my favorite things about Christmas is the real tree!! I am so excited about Christmas i think ann is at such a fun age for gifts and it means Alice will be here and i am so excited to meet her!

Happy Thanksgiving

Oh my gosh!!! I feel like i look better in person than in this picture! But i am a whale without a doubt... it's all worth it so I'm good...lol
These are our friends we spent thanksgiving with when we're away from our families! It was kind of put together last min but it worked out great! Doctor said not to travel... I'm 36 weeks :)

having a blast in the leaves

She loved to be covered up in them which i wouldn't think would be a lot of fun but... she loved it

sorry I am back from being the worst blogger ever!

Ok an update on the family... scroll down...

Ok we got there pictures taken in August of the Family!

I just realized i am now over 8 month pregnant i have not posted since i was 3... wow sorry about that i am just going to start from here because i was going to go back but i don't think I'll ever get to it and actually post something new. Update on us... we're doing really good! We're super happy and just waiting for Alice (new baby girl) to come. My c section is Dec 28th... i know terrible day right after Christmas but we will make it special. Scott is doing great in school and Ann and i are having a blast.

Ann is absolutely hilarious she is such a well behaved girl i keep thinking terrible 2's will come. Her new line when we ask her to do something is "Okay...well what if we play first and THEN get our pj's on" Such a negotiator.

Just today Scott told her to stop putting her 2 fingers in her nose (which was the 1st time we have seen her)and she said" Daddy, I'm keeping the bees out of it" She has successfully gone into her own little pretend world. I was the kid that was in my happy place for most the day so i just laugh when i see her playing with all her little toys and they are making dinner or going to school or learning how to share... She teaches he dolls all sorts of things. It is crazy how big she is now!

Ann's favorite phrase is "I would LOVE to" I'll ask her to put her coat on... "oh sure i would love to mom" It makes me smile every time she says it! We just got our Christmas tree Sat so i will post those pictures next... i am back blogging well a little break for the baby :-) in late December but I AM BACK!!

All 3 grand kids on my side :-)
