Our 7 Christmases

So we had 7 Christmases this year. Christmas Eve was at my aunt's house, Christmas morning at our house, by 9:30 we had to be at my grandma's, by 2:30 we were at Paul's aunt's house, that evening was spent at Paul's parents', the next morning at my parents, and 11:00 that morning my other grandma's house. It was fun though. The kids had a blast opening their presents and going to all the parties. It was so nice to finally have Jordan here for Christmas.

WE'RE PREGNANT!!

About 7 weeks. We saw and heard the heartbeat today.....so precious! We are very excited. We will have 3 kids under age 2. That should be the definition of insanity :) If we aren't insane already, we will be soon haha.
When I found out a few weeks ago, I gave Paul a gift and told him it was an early Thanksgiving present. Inside was Jordan's shirt. I had designed it to read "I'm going to be a big brother!" Here's the video of him opening it.

Happy Birthday to Me

Another busy weekend! I talked a while back about our family tradition of Tree Night at my grandma's house. The past few years we have also done one at my mom's. That was Friday. Saturday we went out of town Christmas shopping all day and then went to an AWESOME light show that night. Today was spent baking all my X-mas goodies. The kids frosted cookies for the first time, but Jordan refused to eat any cookies with frosting on them. He wanted a plain one. He was actually afraid of the frosting!

Our Tree

We decorated our tree last night. The kids were so excited about it.

3 Christmases went by waiting for our little boy. It is surreal to finally have him here. This is his ornament that says "Waiting for Jordan 2006." We had no idea he would not be born for 2 more years and we already loved him so much. This year he was here to hang the ornament on his tree!
