This Christmas both of our kiddos were sick which was to bad for them! They didn't eat anything, and they slept a lot, thankfully they can sleep anywhere! We are now all feeling better which is a blessing! Never, ever forget to be thankful for health!

Christmas Eve we had Christmas as a family, we go the kids Christmas jammies and a floor mat, they tried to be excited but it didn't seem to work to well. :)

Daddy helping Kayla with her gift.

Andy enjoyed ripping the paper, little piece by little piece. :)

Christmas Eve we went over to Josh's family for supper, games, fondue and a movie. The next morning we had breakfast, played games and got our big Christmas lunch ready.

Playing risk.

Carving the turkey.

Frying perogies! :)

In the afternoon we headed over to my family, they played hockey in the afternoon, then we got supper ready.

After supper we had fondue, played games and watched a movie.

The next morning we opened gifts, went skating, and then headed out to for a gathering at my Grama's in the evening.

We hope that you all had a very Merry Christmas filled with family, laughter and many new memories! May God bless you in the New Year!

Week 23 :)

So on Thursday I had my ultrasound, everything looked great, the baby was a little stubborn and really made us work to get a picture of the heart, but other wise all went well! He/she is very active and flexible!! But there was one thing that I was not expecting to hear... my dates are off and the baby is only measuring 23 weeks and 3 days instead of 25 weeks! :) So plans have changed, :) As of right now my due is set for May1st or 2nd, I'll see what my midwife says when she sees the ultrasound.

I always thought that if something that would happen to me I would disappointed, but I'm not really; I am so looking forward to meeting this little one but I really enjoy being pregnant, so 2 more weeks is fine with me! Plus we really have no idea when this little one will makes it appearance, only God knows and that's fine with me!

So I will pause the weekly updates till we get back to where we were and leave you with some pictures of Josh's birthday party.

Happy Birthday Josh!

Today we celebrate the birthday of a very special man... my soul mate and best friend. Josh, you are a wonderful man and everyday I am amazed at how much the Lord has blessed me by placing you in my life! Being your wife is a dream come true. I love being your life partner, striving to train our children the way God intended, being there for you and sharing life's little moments with you! You are the man of my dreams and I love you!
