Thanksgiving Fun, Christmas Fun and Pregancy Fun!!

I think that this is the longest time I have gone without blogging! I have missed it!! We have been kinda busy the last few weeks. Thursday we enjoyed Thanksgiving with Toms moms family. The food was very yummy, I have been craving Thanksgiving food for months and it was well worth the wait. After dinner Tom and I actually got to go home and take a very nice nap. We never get to relax on holidays because we usually are running from family to family, but this year we decided to do things different. After about a 3 hour nap we went up to Toms parents for some more turkey and a movie with the family. Brindley wasen't really into the movie so I decided to go and map out my plan for shopping that night by looking through the ads.
At about 10 that night the fun night began by going to the outlets in park city with Laura, Casey and my little sister. It was pretty fun!! We then headed down to walmart to join in the maddness. I tell you what it is crazy what some ladys will do for 4 dollars jammies. Grown women were crawling on the floor to get them. It was CRAZY!!! I was too chicken to join in crowd, but a really nice lady grabbed a few for me. After a long night of shopping we went to Ihop for some yummy food. Over all the shopping was a success, but I think next year Tom is going to come with me so we can get some more done.
A few days before Thanksgiving Tom came home from work and said "Hey lets put Christmas up" I was so excited that he said that because it was some much needed fun. Christmas is Toms ALL time favortie Holiday. Our home is always so pretty for christmas. I love the feeling that a simple christmas tree brings to the home.

Now for the update on the pregancy.... Im 25 weeks today actually. Everything has been going really good. At the last doctors appointment I gained another 3 pounds totally 7. The last fews months I know im going to pack on the pounds. I did the samething with Brindley. I think the last 2 months I gained 8 pounds each month.

As you can tell the belly has really popped out in the last few weeks. I can feel her move around like crazy when im going to bed. (of course) Time is flying by way to fast, but we are so excited to have another little one in our home. Brindley doesn't go a day without telling her little sister she loves her along with givng her a kiss. I have no doubt that Brin will be the best big sister.
Her are just a few fun random pics of Brindley that I thought were cute.....
This was so cute we just got home from church and had dinner. Brindley fell asleep on daddys shoulder for like an hour.
Brindley has this book called pinkalious, she has me read her this book atleast 10 times a day and she has to sleep with it every night. Well a few weeks ago after reading it all day she wanted to make her own cupcakes, so we did. They turned out pretty good if I must say so. I love making things with Brin, it puts the cutest smile on her face!!

Uh seriously, you have only gained 7 pounds total. I just went to the doctors on Monday and I gained more then that in one month. You belly is so cute and tiny, I still can't understand why I gain like a cow so bad in the begining, I wish I could be a cute petite prego person like you. Your christmas tree looks so nice, I too love having Christmas setup, it just makes your home feel that more peaceful.

Wow! You are so brave to endure the Black Friday during the midnight hour in your prego state. :) Clark and I went out at like noon when things die down a bit. No fighting for pjs. LOL Brindley is so cute, I love her hair flipped out. oh and jealous of the 7lbs. Love your baby bump, you look so cute and radiant. I was gaining 10lbs every 4 weeks and the doc told me to stop with the sugars and now I am a lot better. I would have gained 100 lbs by Jan if I hadn't controlled my sugars. But I am sure I'm going to need to work out a lot if I want to fit into anything besides sweats again. Glad I found your site. Thanks for the cute VT bookmarks, you guys are too cute.
Love ya,

I can't believe you are already 25 weeks! I agree with the others that I too am jealous that you have only gained 7 lbs. I gained 10pounds for three months in a row with Halle. Very depressing! I love decorating for Christmas, your tree looks so cute. Chloe loves the book pinkalicious too. It's a cute book. I'm glad you are doing well, we need to get together again sometime:)

Thanks for doing my hair & toes on your birthday. I really appreciated it. It was one of the final things I wanted done before I have this baby!

7 pounds and you're more than half way there? Dang, you're lucky. You have such a cute little prego body.

Mich said...

Oh, and Happy Birthday. You're 25...don't know about you, but it's a little scary for me to think about. I hope Tom did something extra special for you. Well, I'm sure he did- he always seems to go above and beyond:)
