officially Christmas Season!!!

You know how sometimes you just have one of those days where you realize how truly blessed you are. when you step back and thank God for your husband. for your pets. for the unborn baby in your belly. for everything He has blessed you with. because there is just so much. yesterday was one of those days for me. 

I knew it was going to be a good day. We had our 4D ultrasound scheduled and we were putting up our Christmas tree. I mean, what more could this girl possibly want:) 

I will talk more about the 4D in the weekly pregnancy post, but look at how cute our baby girl is. 
 Clearly, that put us both on cloud 9 for the rest of the day. well, let's be honest, we are still floating:) 

We came home from Baby Belly and Philip wanted to play in the leaves with Jackson. It was so funny to watch them. Philip hid in a pile of leaves and Jackson would eventually find him. 
look at his crazy eyes! 

It was a lot of fun. until Philip lost his wedding ring in the pile of leaves. It was just like 2 winters ago when he lost his ring in the snow at The Burtons. So we spent the next 20 minutes sifting through the leaves looking for his ring. We decided maybe for Christmas he would be getting a metal detector:) Luckily, he found it:)

We went and grabbed some sushi (cucumber roll only for this preggo), stopped and got our annual bottle of champagne (add sparkling non alcoholic wine this year) and came home to put up our tree(s)!
hubs drank the non alcohol with me. it wasn't that bad! 
hanging the cork on the tree. its an annual tradition:)


Once the tree was complete and the stockings were hung, we (philip) built a fire and we watched Home Alone:)
 
we FINALLY got jackson to come on the floor with us. he was so scared of the fire!! 
It was the perfect start to our Christmas Season. And it's not even December yet! :)
