Happy Holidays!

Christmas is just 1 week away (which also means it is my Mother's Birthday today!). I of course being the planner I am have all our Christmas shopping done and completely wrapped and under the tree. I laugh b/c last weekend I took a bunch of presents to my parents house and couldn't even put the presents under the tree yet, it wasn't ready. I'm not shocked though!

Yesterday we completed week 27, on to the last trimester, yahoo!! I will post belly photos at some point for you. This photo below is one that was taken on Thanksgiving Day and I thought it would be appropriate to have my parents use it as their Christmas Card. I am pretty sure that didn't happen though. We are forgoing the Christmas Card this year knowing that we will have baby announcements to send out in March and that list is long!I have been feeling good lately and still getting to the gym every morning which hopefully will help in the delivery room! We had our 2 nights of fast track baby class at Clarian North last Tuesday and the week before. This past week the nurse passed around all the "toys" the doctor could use for things like epidural, vacuum, forceps, IV etc. I started to sweat when the IV stuff was passed around, I hate needles (I know, how could I be the child of a doctor!). We also toured the different rooms we could be using and Chris says to me get the room with the tub, I might need it. Haha!!

I do have the nesting feeling b/c the nursery is not put together at all. Though the armoire is finally done (doors had to be replaced) and we have a few pieces of clothing to actually hang in it. Once Chris moves his cactus collection to the lower level and we have the crib and chair delivered I will feel much better. I am sure driving Chris crazy with my mood swings though, sorry sweetie! He could have it a lot worse since I haven't really been sick and I am still working long days and making dinner most nights.

Last trimester, bring it on! Happy Holidays everyone! We are off to Batesville this weekend for 1 of 3 Christmas celebrations. Then to my Aunts house on Christmas Eve where all the cousins and their children (6 little boys under the age of 9) get to hang out, good practice for us!

Thanks for reading!
