Christmas Tree Lighting, VAFB

The base had a Christmas tree lighting on base yesterday. Unfortunately, Liam woke up as it was starting and was NOT in a good mood (he is cutting another molar!). So it took me a while to calm him down, change his diaper and encourage him to go "bye bye".

We got there late, the ceremony was over and tree had been lit. But there was still lots of fun to be had! You can see from the photos Liam's case of the grumps progressively wore off!

He also took a photo with Santa (still trying to see how to get a copy of it). He was SCREAMING and throwing a fit, so I had my hands full and didn't think to ask for someone to take a photo with my camera. Will do my best to see if I can get a copy of the photo they took for us. I'm sure it is hilarious, Liam was LOCKED out on me and refused to sit with Santa. So it's Mama with a stiff toddler leaning over toward Santa. I'm sure it's a riot!

We ended the night with a pizza french roll daddy brought home after work and drove around looking at Christmas lights around the base. Which was an experience... Liam never sits in the front seat... he loved playing with all the gadgets and knobs. He even crawled over to daddy and "drove" and honked the horn at some random people walking by. Kevin and I laughed and laughed. Oh how I love these two guys!

Oh and can't forget this. A couple days ago, Liam helped me build a little graham cracker holiday house. It was lots of fun & super YUMMY!

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...

One Decision Down... 18+ Years Worth Left to Go!

So, in the scheme of things this probably should have been one of the easiest decisions to make, but Kevin and I just could not agree on a crib bedding set (or theme for that matter) for our little man's nursery.  We finally got it down to two and left those on the computer to stare at for a few days.   Well, Kevin finally compromised (okay--he gave in) and my set won!  So, our son now has a bedding set and a safari themed bedroom! (on order).  Next decision (prone to more disagreements, I'm sure) is finding our little man a name!  If you ask Kevin, his name is Aisen, but I have yet to agree on that (more on the great name debate later!).  For now, here is the set we're ordering our son tonight!  What do you think?!
