32 Weeks, Christmas, and the New Year!

Almost there! Annabelle thinks it's funny to kick/tickle me in the ribs at night. I seem to be woken up every night with her little foot in my ribs. Silly girl! Her room is still not finished, Collin still has to paint the furniture.

Christmas 2008 has come and gone. This year was a little weird. I can't quite put my finger on what was so different. But, all in all it was amazing! We started off Christmas Eve with a toilet overflowing...fun! After cleaning up that mess, I did some cooking for our Christmas dinner. Then Collin and I went to Carrollton to pick up last minute gifts. We had lunch at O' Charley's (courtesy of the gift card Collin's work gave him). That night we spent with my family. We first went to Sassy's and had dinner and watch movies and opened presents, then we headed to Mom and Dad's to open presents. I got a lot of stuff for the house, along with Grey's Anatomy Season 2, and a Vera Bradley Kensington large duffel. Collin got a grill with along with accessories and lots of gift cards. We spent the night with Mom and Dad, so we didn't have to drive back and forth. Christmas breakfast was yummy! I think that is my favorite part of Christmas.
We headed home at 11, to get ready for Collin's Dad and step mom, along with Carson and Laurice, to come over. We...I got dinner ready and Collin put together his grill. We had Taco Soup and some yummy desserts! We got some good loot from them as well. Gift cards, movies, and so much more! We finished the night watching "Walk the Line".
The next day...I did not leave the house! It was AMAZING! Collin's dad and Step mom left and while they were out, bought Collin a propane tank and some burgers, so we grilled out that night! It as yummy!
Saturday, we said goodbye to Marshall and Joan and got ready for my birthday dinner that night. We went to Carrabba's! So good! Got a coach purse from Mom and Dad, gift cards and money!
2008 was an AMAZING year! I was thinking about all the things that has happened this year:
Witnessed 3 marriages begin, Collin went to Africa, Found out we were expecting, Bought a house, and we celebrated a year of marriage! I knew 2008 would be BIG! 2009 going to be even BIGGER!
I mean what could be bigger than becoming PARENTS!
