Yay for Christmas and lots of fun. Christmas was fantastic. We are so blessed to get to spend time with family. We got lots of great gifts. We got a Kinect and we've been using it to exersize. : ) It seemed 'the holidays were over' as everyone says, but Jonathan had off for MLK day, next week is Isaac's birthday, then comes Valentine's day and then Micaela's birthday and then my birthday! We are full of holidays! I am hoping to make Isaac and awesome Mickey cake amoungst other things. But i don't have the energy to throw him a big party. It is getting harder and harder to keep the house clean and grocery shop. I am soooo tired. My Braxton hicks contractions have started already so my guess for the due date is Feb. 28th. I am still morning sick, my left leg has those crazy veins that hurt, I keep mini-straining my back, and now the contractions. So this third trimester is full of fun.
Allie is a full on trouble maker. Climbing on the table, playing in the ashes in the fireplace, shaking the lamp, running into the street, taring books ect. I'm not sure what will happen when the baby comes. I know she will go Bizerk. I've been babysitting a few children latley and I think it is helpful for her to see me hold someone else or change another child's diaper. She doesn't like it, but she needs to get used to the idea.
We've been having fun taking advantage of the few cold days we've had with fires in the fireplace and hot chocolate. Today it was around 70 so the kids had lots of fun playing outside. I love that about texas. I would rather swim in the summer than bundle the kids up everytime we want to go somewhere for 5 months. Jonathan is working hard on the bathroom. The picture is with all the walls finally up but he's done a ton since then. I am just going to wait to post the final picture for a suprise.
My new baby neice is still in the hospital. They keep finding complicatiions with her having fluid in her lungs. So we are stil trying to help them and praying for little Isabelle. My sister Anna had her little baby recently as well! His name is Andrew and he was 3 wks early at 8 lbs! I guess he was just done early!
