Happy Holidays to You!

Christmas was great this year! We had fun celebrating our first Christmas with Becca, we ate lots and lots of yummy food, took plenty of naps, and “Santa” spoiled both of us absolutely rotten. Even though this year was lots of fun, we are greatly anticipating Christmas 2010 as it will be 100 times better having a baby to celebrate with! =)

As if becoming parents here soon didn’t make us feel all big and in the grown up world enough as it is, we constructed our wills and received them officially in the mail yesterday. Some life decisions are hard to make, but we made it through and got things in order (hopefully) – 9 pages later! It’s crazy to see your “death” right in front of your face……

Doctor appointments have still been going great! Nothing new to report. Noah’s heartbeat has stayed within normal range, Jen’s weight has pretty much stayed the same, and no increases in dilation have been made. Here’s hoping for a 2010 baby!

Jen started her maternity leave yesterday. She’s been trying to relax as much as she can, (like playing the new Super Mario Bros for the Wii) but there always seems to be something that needs to be done around the house. She IS taking time out though to pamper herself this week and get things done to look decent while in the hospital. Today was haircut and pedicure day, and boy did THAT help her to feel better!

Here will be the last of the belly pics – until we have another baby, of course. ;)


Pregnant Jen and her "pregnant" brother - yes, that's his real belly (crazy!).

Pregnant Jen and her "pregnant" husband - he must not be as far along as Brian. ;)

Pregnant Jen and her pregnant friend Erynn! Noah's gonna have a cousin in July! =)

Growing Noah both inside and soon-to-be outside with Chick-Fil-A. =)

We’re SO excited for Noah to come!!! As you can see, only 3 more days to go – or more!!! =)

Noah will be proud to have the prettiest mommy on the whole maternity floor! (I'm glad I got to share in your "pamper me" day.) I can't believe he will be here ANY DAY now!!! :-)

It sounds like a wonderful day... being "pampered" and spending time with your Mom. Can't wait for Noah's "Birth Day"!! Love you guys.

It is very important to have pretty toenails during delivery- gives you something to look at besides the walls!:) I am happy for you that the next time you post photos of Noah it will be when he is on the "outside"- I am looking forward to the big "delivery" blog.:)

I love those belly pics! And Erynn's belly keeps getting bigger, too! YAY! We're so anxious to hear when Noah makes his much anticipated arrival!! You continue to look adorable, Jen. I agree with your mom, you'll be the prettiest mom by far, not just in the maternity floor, but in the entire hospital. Our phones are always with us - waiting to hear of our new little baby...

Much love to all three of you! :)
