Christmas Tree and End of 2nd Trimester

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

I LOVE this time of year!! Each year I try to talk Dave into putting the tree up early (and by early I mean just before Thanksgiving, nothing too crazy). But every year he calmly reminds me that we should celebrate one holiday at a time. I guess that is what I get for marrying someone that is practical. So once again the tree came up the day after Thanksgiving. Dave was on an outing with part of his family but fortunately I had some very cute and eager helpers staying with us for the holiday. Unfortunately I did not get ANY pictures of the nieces helping me decorate but it was so much fun having their help and it was a great way to start off the Christmas season. Here is our tree. I can't believe it is our last Christmas just the two of us!

This is officially the last week of my second trimester. I am very excited to be getting closer to having the baby...but very sad to end this part of my pregnancy. Everything continues to progress well. I feel great and the baby is definitely growing! I'm sorry I am not better about keeping everyone updated on our pregnancy....hopefully I will be better when the baby is here...hopefully.
