Christmas Suprises...

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas with your friends & family. We did, and really enjoyed ourselves. We realize this was our last Christmas with things "the way they were..." Needless to say, it was alot of fun getting presents for mommy & daddy and for Miss Abigail. She is destined to be spoiled rotten...just like her mommy and her brother, Oscar. :-)

Anyways, my BIG Christmas suprise was Abby's bedding. When i saw the bag, I knew it was her bedding. Which made me laugh and feel very excited. Two weeks ago, I had asked my Hollis (my sis-in-law) if she knew when the bedding would be in. I was just ready to see it, and start the nursery. She told me she would check...but i never heard anything after that. Well Tuesday, I harassed her again :-) And asked about my bedding...She told me it had shipped. On Christmas morning, I learned that not only Hollis & my Mom, but Joyce & Kate were in cahoots! They all fibbed to me because my mom had schemed with Hollis earlier to make sure I didn't know a thing. I love this type of scheming :-) It really made getting her bedding that much more special.

Well this meant that Everett would start receiving daily "nagging" about asking when he would put the crib up...I had told him January...but you know what happens. I COULDN'T WAIT! So yesterday morning I woke up and found Ev with all the pieces out of the box and reading the directions. He is a master at putting things together, and had it up in less than an hour! The crib looks great in the room...Being the dork that I am, I even mimicked putting Abby in the crib. I can't wait until she is actually in the crib!!

I put all the bedding together yesterday and I absolutely love the bedding! I can't wait to get my two pieces that are being painted and then my pink chair, and start finishing it up. Pictures soon to follow, as well as a new belly pic. I guess I have popped now....Abby & I have been enjoying all of the holiday food. And I am realizing that my lack of belly real estate will make for a whiney Lauren, during the remainder of the pregnancy. I still feel Great and love feeling Abby have her Disco Party.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
