Christmas!

Wow, I can't believe Christmas has come and gone already. It kinda snuck up on me this year. We had a wonderful, busy couple of days. We started out Christmas Eve down at Jed's parents house. His oldest brother and his wife (who are expecting their first child a little under a month after our new one arrives!) came down for a night of yummy desserts and so we could exchange gifts. We drew names back around Thanksgiving. Jed drew my name. He got my a gift card to my favorite restaurant..The Cheesecake Factory! Me being preggo I have been craving cheesecake so I was super excited! Jed got the Playstation controller charger he had been wanting from his mother. James stole the show with all his gifts from from uncles, aunt, and grandparents. He loved his new truck, Mr. Potato Head (he fell asleep last night holding onto an ear and nose, ha!), and his new cell phone, just to name a few! We came home afterwards and got to open one more gift for the night. His Christmas jammies. He looked so cute in them! After a bath and of course reading "The Night Before Christmas" we went to bed eagerly awaiting the next morning!  Lazy little man slept in till nearly 10, so when we woke up he opened is gifts from Mommy and Daddy. He loved them all, even the clothes! Next up was Christmas at his Great-Grandma Kathryn's. It was about naptime so when we first got there he was kinda cranky, but as soon as cousins started arriving he got his second wind and had a blast. We ate good food, hung out with family, and then it was time to head to Nana and Pawpaw's for Christmas dinner at their house. We ate some more yummy food, watched Indiana Jones, and visited until James decided he had had enough and was ready for bed. We brought him home and of course he got another burst of energy. He eventually calmed down and fell asleep in like 2 seconds. He has spent all day playing with all his new goodies he got from all of our different family members. I have to say we are so blessed to have so many people who love our little man so much, and I know the new baby will be just as loved!

I hope you all had as wonderful of a holiday as we did! I will leave you with a few (well more than a few) pictures from the weekend 
















































Lots of Love,
