Merry Christmas!!

Whew...we were very busy this Christmas holiday! It was filled with lots of love, laughter and oohing and ahhing! As can be expected...Lauren stole the show!


We enjoyed Christmas Eve with Robbie's family at Aunt Gay and Uncle Dan's house. I think Lauren got the most presents!!


The next morning, we enjoyed a fabulous Christmas Day breakfast at Grandma Dolly and Papa Ed's house!

Later that day, we had a Christmas Day steak dinner at our house. Lauren visited with Adam (Unk), his friend Josh, Mom and Dad (Nana and Poppy), Aunt Deb, and Nana (Grandy) and Papa.


The day after Christmas, we had dinner at Robbie's parents house. His brother Jon and his wife Blair came down from Virgina. We opened gifts with his family and Lauren got a surprise visit from Santa!!

On Saturday, Lauren was visited by some close friends of the family: Aunt Becky, Uncle Jimmy, and Drew! Nana and Poppi came over to visit too!



Robbie, Lauren, and I enjoyed this holiday very much. We are so blessed to be a part of so many loving families!!

Lauren at 38 Weeks Old

I had a doctors appointment today and everything looked good. She is laying contently, which means she is still breech. We have eight more days until her scheduled delivery on December 11th. As in every picture, the blur on the side of her face is her hand. You can really see her eyes, nose, and mouth. Isn't she so precious!!!
