Some late Christmas Photos















Here we have all of my nieces and nephews of my family. The newest edition is the chunko on the far left on the lap of Chamberlain. The kid is 3 months old and 18 pounds in this picture. I told my sister that I wouldn't keep calling him a chunko, but until he grows a bit taller with all of that weight, it's going to stick. It was really good to see my sisters Amber and Natalie over Christmas. I was a slacker and didn't get pictures of the three of us together, so you get to look at the kids. Plus, I don't feel like I am very photogenic at the moment being pregnant.





















This is a picture that Matt took when we visited Temple Square. Isn't he good? I think so. Now if only we could learn how to hold still so the pictures are not so fuzzy.





















This is our Christmas tree that we had to go and buy a new tree stand for. It was so big that it didn't fit into our old one. The trunk base was about 7 inches across. We had loads of fun getting that into the house and all decorated. It was 8 feet tall and we ran out of lights about half way down so had to buy some more before finishing the decorating process. Maybe next year we should use a fake, pre-lit tree.

So, our Christmas was good and hectic. I am really glad to have things back to normal. All the Christmas stuff is put away and it life as usual. Well, as usual as it can be I guess. I am totally freaking out that it is already January and we haven't made any real preparations for the little peanut to arrive. I have to say that I am scared to death of the birthing process! I am handling pregnancy fine. I have not had to deal with morning sickness or anything too severe. My biggest complaint at this point is that my feet and hands are so swollen that they hurt a bit and various limbs fall asleep when I sleep on my side. It's pretty awesome. We need a name and a lot of drugs for the delivery and we should be set.

I really am glad that you have rejoined the blogosphere. I have missed you. Fo' real. I know I could e-mail or whatever, but let's face it. I'm a slacker. :) Also, I think Chunko is lucky that he'll have a cousin so close in age. :)
