I am so excited for Christmas this year! Addison will be so excited and adorable. I put up the Christmas tree one morning while she was still asleep; including the star, lights, and garland, and waited to see her face when she woke; it didn't dissapoint!
"OH WOW MOMMY OH WOW!" was exclaimed, over and over by little Peep.
I can't wait to see her face Christmas morning; all that wonder and joy make me feel like a child again too =) Just driving around looking at Christmas lights is new and amazing, "Oh WOW, so PRETTY!"
I'm pretty sure I bought her waaaaaaaay too much this year! As in, all our income tax is basically spoken for... so much for paying of the rest of that one student loan lol.
Josh and I are going on a weekend getaway next weekend (December 10, 11, & 12) to Burlington VT. Actually, he is going there to train to be a Union Rep at work, but, the Union pays for the hotel & expenses and after his classes, which are only a few hours, he can do whatever he wants. We plan on going out to eat a lot (there are a few gluten free restaurants there), and plan on finishing up our Christmas shopping.
Not sure if I mentioned it previously, but, Kellen has 2 little perfect bottom teeth in. He is also pulling himself up to standing and is now 7 months old. He is also a terrible Mama's boy... ugh I hope it's just a stage because most Mama's boys that I know don't end up very self sufficient; which, yes, is mostly the mother's fault. I hope I can raise my kids to be self assured and independent with much love for their family. (This means I hope to Jesus they can handle picking up their own dirty kleenex, other trash, dirty clothes etc. unlike some other man I know...)
Addison is this * * close to being potty trained. She still has trouble remembering to go when she gets playing and she has only gone #2 on the potty/toliet once... Other than that she does really well. We are so proud of our big girl =)
**I am so excited for all these weddings coming up, pretty soon people will have to start having babies so we have more excuses to come together and have a great time =)
