Less than a week!

A couple pics I took of the kids today after church...

Avery has been wearing these glasses all day lately. They are some old glasses without lenses. Doesn't he look so smart?

My father in law took these pics a couple weeks ago for our Christmas picture.

He does great work!

I guess part of me was hoping that I would have been posting pics of our new baby girl by now but that is not the case! We are still hanging in here. At the last dr. appointment, the dr. said that things seemed to be moving slow and wanted to know how long after the 25th (our due date), we would want to wait. How disappointing! I really have stuck with not wanting to be induced so I surely hope that it does not come down to that because she is so late.

Why so anxious you ask? I am just very sore! I have had major back pain for the last few weeks, with very little relief and our sweet baby girl sits so high poking me that it makes it hard to carry Mayci or do little things like bend over to pick something up! These past few days have brought on the leg cramps too. I have only ever gone to 38 weeks with Avery & Mayci before I was induced so these almost 40 week pains are just wearing on me, especially with the 2 little ones.

We have just been busy with the holidays around here. It's been nice to put baby stuff out of my head a little bit and spend ime with the kids focusing on Christmas. The nursery did get painted by my in laws last weekend, which was very sweet of them to do. We painted it a light aqua color and I just love it. The crib is here and almost set up and it's starting to come together!

This past week, my sister in law took some maternity pictures of me. I have never had them done and thought it would be nice to have some for our last pregnancy...I am sensitive to what I post as I am not thrilled about myself in pictures, but there are a few to share ;-)

Hope that everyone is enjoying the reason for the season as we quickly approach CHRISTmas!
