Nesting and Funny Comments

The nursery went up a couple of weekends ago, and right now it is one of my favorite places to sit and relax. I must admit, I do love a good rocking chair!

John was so sweet to put together all the furniture and get the room all set up. Now it is my turn, and it is fun organizing all of baby girl's things.

The funny comments for this pregnancy are really starting to gear up. So far, nothing beats the guy in Costco when I was prego with Luke....or maybe I have just become accustomed to people being shocked at my ever growing belly. I did have a sweet lady at church (also an OB) say "Wow, just a couple of weeks now right?". Um, try 11 more weeks. Her response, "Well I suppose you may make it." I also get a lot of comments about twins....because most people assume I already have one set walking along next to me. The boys are quick to come to my rescue, "No, I only have one baby sister in Mommy's belly!" James pulls off indignation really well, sweet little guy!

Merry Christmas!

We were so blessed this year to spend Christmas with our family in Atlanta. There was something really special about having 5 little cousins running around full of Christmas cheer! Christmas morning they were all so good staying in their rooms until it was time to get up, but once 7:00 hit it was like a rush of excitement coming down the stairs.

James and Grady being goofy before church. The boys received the cutest neckwear from Nana for an early Christmas present. Such good looking kiddos!

Luke with Grady and Abigail. Such sweetness!

A line-up of all 5 kids. Ironically also in order of height. I love how Luke insisted that he pull his tie outside of his sweater, he wanted to make sure everyone saw it.

Flying airplanes Christmas morning. BIG hit Aunt Julie!

 

Merry Christmas from our home to yours!
