I am so excited that we have decided on a name for our little boy, Matthew James. We are getting closer to the due date and I'm getting a little nervous. We still have not put his nursery together and are waiting until after the hoildays to get everything done. This is starting to stress me a little. I know we will get it finished, but just the thought of waiting is killing me. I know it will be easier once all the Christmas decorations are down though. We have decided to go with Buttons bedding by Cocalo and design a nursery around it.
I am really excited about Christmas this year. Lauren has a pink tree and her own ornaments in her room and loves to turn it it on every night. We were out of town for Thanksgiving and the weekend after, so we are still working on getting our tree, mantle, outdoor wreaths and lights, etc. put up. I'm moving a little slower this year being pregnant and all. Lauren is loving looking at the lights that the neighbors have up, so that means we get to do something like that to our house. I am hoping the lighted wreath and garland on the porch will suffice this year. :) Lauren also has an Elf on the Shelf that sits in her room to watch over her and report back to Santa. It seems to be working pretty well. She has also seen commercials and keeps telling me what she wants for Christmas. It's kinda funny since she wants everything she sees. We will see what Santa brings her and what she actually decides to play with.
I want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and not to get caught up in everything and to remember the real reason we celebrate. Jesus was the first Christmas gift and should always be first in our lives.
