Emily, Grammy and Gramps on Christmas

We had such a great Christmas. We took our girls to see Santa. Madi and Emily loved it and told Santa exactly what they wanted. Madi wanted a guitar and Emily wanted makeup. Avery on the other hand wanted nothing to do with Santa. She was so sad!!
On Christmas Eve we made Christmas cookies, we had so much fun!! That night we went to dinner and then came home to our Christmas Eve tradition which is opening new pajamas. I love traditions!! Then we set out some cookies and milk for Santa and went to bed. Christmas morning was so sweet, I loved seeing my girls open their presents. They loved everything they got and were very appreciative. Emily was a little bit faster then everyone else at opening her gifts so she was a little confused as to why the other girls still had presents to open. Madi got her guitar, Emily got makeup and Avery got a sit and spin. We were able to stay and play with the kids things for the morning into the afternoon and we really enjoyed that. Later we went to my Mom's house. My sister from Texas comes home every Christmas so we were able to spend time with her family which was great. We were able to have a family dinner at our house the day after Christmas, it was yummy! It was like another Thanksgiving. It has been great having my kids home for Christmas break. I do not want them to go back!! We are so greatful for the opportunity we have had to reflect on Christ and his life. We hope your CHRISTmas was wonderrful too.

You do look adorable pregnant! I think you're just a few days ahead of me. Let's hang in there!

I don't know a single mom in my town who is pregnant so you're going to have to be my buddy here. =o)

Your family is so cute! I loved hearing from you on my blog. You look fantastic- I'm 37 weeks today and feeling rather massive. Good luck with girl #4. You'll have to check my blog in a few weeks and see if we end up evening things out with another boy. :)
