Christmas and now

It's definitely been a while since I've posted, but things are good.  Christmastime was so much fun, and we took advantage of almost every Christmas activity, food, craft, FHE, etc., that we could, so it was lots of fun.  Christmas looked like this:

Christmas Tree Lane
Though i was a bit disappointed by it this year, Claire loved it.
She gave hugs and kisses to every Santa, reindeer, snowman,
candy cane, etc.  She was definitely in the Christmas Spirit!

Christmas train ride to see Santa
This kicked off our awesome Christmas in Southern California.

Christmas at the Tanners'
It was awesome.  It was so fun to have the whole family there,
especially the cousins for Claire.  Lots of fun/festive activites,
always awesome food, and great to be all together.

Christmastime in Palm Desert
After all of the presents were opened, food was eaten,
naps were taken, etc., we headed out to Palm Desert
for a little warmth.  We loved swimming in an 87 degree pool.

Merry Christmas!
This is what Claire did when we told her to smile!
lol.  She was actually very excited to open her
first present.

And now we're doing a whole lot of this!  EDD is  1 month away, and we're super excited.  Just trying to finish my last-minute projects, wrap up the loose ends at my awesome job, do lots of fun activities with friends, etc.  I feel great, and am trying to enjoy all of these 'last' moments with Claire.  She's so excited for a baby brother (despite the fact that she told me the other day that she wanted a baby sister...), and is going to be a great helper.
