Catch up time again....

I kept meaning to sit down and write last week, but it just never happened. Here is the quick version of the last two weeks....

Santa~
We took Emma to Bass Pro Shop to see Santa Claus the Friday before Thanksgiving. Emma was super excited to see Santa and talked about it all day before we went, but when it was finally her turn, she froze! She finally agreed to talk to him and tell him that she wanted "presents" for Christmas, but she wouldn't sit in his lap. Our free picture is of me standing next to Santa holding Emma. Oh Well! She was still excited about having seen him when we left the store, so we'll just try again next year.

Thanksgiving Weekend~
We had a good, relaxing Thanksgiving. We all went over to Dave's parents house and had a great day with lots of really good food. We got our Christmas Tree put up on the day after Thanksgiving - that was a little bit of an adventure - Dave and Emma put most of the ornaments on the tree while I was at the doctor. I came home to the news that we had "too many" ornaments for the tree and a tree that had nothing on the back 1/3. So, I "fixed" the tree and we all agreed that from now on, ornaments go on as a family :) On Saturday morning, Dave and I splurged and got a babysitter so we could use some of our AMC theater gift certificates to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. We were pleasantly surprised with and really enjoyed the movie. I did a little Christmas shopping over the weekend and I think I am nearly done! I've been wrapping as things have been bought, so we put everything under the tree on Sunday. Now, I just need to dismantle my wrapping station so I can clean the baby's room!

Baby~
Peanut and I continue to go to the doctor twice a week for out non stress tests and they continue to go well. We had a 35 week ultrasound today and Peanut's weight estimate is 6 lb 7 oz, so they are guessing he will be between 8.5 and 9 pounds if we go all the way to full term. The doctor took a few 3D pictures and it was really neat to see the little guy!
