Happy Holidays & New Baby Pics

I hope this entry in my little blog finds you well and gearing up for the holiday's as much as you can this year. It's been a tough year for a lot of us and I'm really changing my view of Christmas this year. It's not about the things....because it's always been about the things...but it's about the people that we surround ourselves with, the most important people in our lives. I want to instill that in my kids because honestly it's always been about the presents and food and Santa etc. This year it's about what we have and how lucky we are to have each other. We have done our best to keep the material items in check (which is not easy for me) and let them enjoy the holiday for what it is...giving instead of receiving. I hope that no matter what your attitude is towards the holidays this year that you have a wonderful one with the ones you love the most!

Are you ready for a baby update?????

Well, I'm 24 weeks along and feeling pretty good. The morning sickness has given me a break, but now it's the belly. It's just getting so big and hard to adjust to...yes, I've done this before, but it's always a trip to see yourself big and pregnant!!!! She is a healthy little baby...and growing so fast. I went to Baby Sightings yesterday and had a really nice time laying there and watching her move. She was a little lazy yesterday, so she didn't give us the regular show, but it was nice to see her resting and just hanging out. She had her little feet crisscrossed and it looked like she hanging out at the beach or something. We got to see her in 3D again and she looks more human like than before, but according to Baby Sightings, my next appointment in January will really show her facial features. The girl is getting very long...and her feet are HUGE. I have some fun pictures below to show you just how big she's getting!

Here's a photo of our little girl...she might be coughing or telling a secret to the little womb...I can't really tell!

I love this picture....her feet crisscrossed...just chillin' for another few months!

Another shot of her loooooong leg and cute little foot!!!! I can't believe how big she is getting!

A little gummy bear like, but starting to show a little more definition...she was moving her mouth a lot and this is a photo of her mouth open.

This one makes me giggle because it looks like she's smiling or something.....

We have to do the monthly profile....I remember when she was small enough to get her entire body on the screen!!!! How they grow!! :)

This is a video of the Baby with her legs crossed and towards the end she moves her feet around like she's tapping her foot to the beat of...well, whatever it is she hears in there! :)

I can't wait to go next month to see her progress!!! And of course to share it with you!! I love Baby Sightings. They are so nice there and their maternity clothes are SO cute. I told my husband that I wanted the Turquoise dress that's in the window...so if you drive by at the Northwest Promenades, you'll know what I'm talking about. Maybe he'll take a hint for the holidays! :) They also have a lady who does photography at Baby Sightings and we're going to do some pre-baby photos of the family soon and then she'll do the newborn photos as well. Baby Sightings is so fantastic!! Please...run there if you are expecting....or know someone who is. It's awesome!

I hope you enjoyed the update....gotta get back to work now. I'll update you soon! Happy Holidays everyone!!!!
