Our 3rd Child: A Birth Story

August 27th- In the early morning Justin and I headed to the hospital for my scheduled c-section. I was a horrible basket full of nerves....

it was the night before christmas...

This year Justin and I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas day with Justin's family. It was great. On Christmas Eve Justin and I made it home just in time to go with the rest of Justin's family to deliver Christmas to a family in need. It was such a special experience and really brought the true meaning of Christmas to the front of our minds.
Christmas Eve night we had a big Christmas dinner with the whole family. We had fondue and rolls and lots of other fun food. It was delicious!
Traditions at Justin's house for Christmas Eve include reading the Christmas story from the Bible and opening one present- PAJAMAS! All of us girls got really cute polka dot pajamas with matching shirts-all in the most fun bright colors!

Oh, and of course, we all had matching socks too!
I really don't like pictures of only me, but for some reason Justin really gets a kick out of making me crazy by trying to get pictures of me by myself. I know Justin will really love seeing that one of his photos that he took of me didn't get erased!



The boys just loved taking so many pictures! Ha!
After taking lots of pictures of the whole family in our new Christmas pj's we all watched Elf. Once it was time for bed all of us kids made beds on the floor in Curtis' room for the night (this is another tradition in Justin's family- to all sleep in the same room on the night before Christmas so that everyone is excited and ready for Santa to come in the morning)!
