Christmas Vacation...

It was a wonderful and blessed season at our house this year. This was the first year in the 7 years together that Noah and I have not travel to either Garden City to see his family or Michigan to see my extended family, or both places like we have done a couple crazy years. IT WAS AMAZING! This break felt so much longer than any other break and we got so much done!

Since this year was our year to spend Christmas with The Wells' and both Noah and his older brother live in the Kansas City area, Noah's parents and sister came here for Christmas. We had a great time relaxing, shopping, eating great food (this would be a great time to mention that over break I went a recording breaking 11 days without throwing up!) and hanging out. We truly enjoyed our time together while also getting to sleep in our own bed and not worry about kenneling Max.

We did Christmas with my family the Saturday morning before Christmas at our house, right before our long awaited gender reveal.

Needless to say Baby Wells' hit jackpot at both Christmas celebrations. We are so blessed to have such supportive families and we now have lots of necessary baby items:

• Pack'N'Play...so Baby Wells will have somewhere to sleep when we go visit Grandma and Grandpa Wells
• Purple Bumbo Seat and Tray...THANK YOU to Aunt Angie's Mom Cindy and Sister Mary, we will put it to good use!
• Breast Pump....enough said.
• Baby Books and Vibrating Toy, which poor Max is terrified of!
• Cute little GAP sweatpants and matching mittens and hat for her to wear next Christmas season!
• One of a kind onesies made by the talented Uncle Nathan. She will be quite the stylish Sporting KC Fan!
• Adorable leg warmers and hair accessories  that I think Aunt Angie would agree these are definitely NECESSITIES!

Thanks to not traveling and Noah taking an extra day off before New Year's Day, Noah and I had a good amount of quality time together that we spent doing some small house projects we want to get done before little girl's arrival and we started working on the nursery. We are thoroughly enjoying this time of preparation and its hard to believe that this time next year we will have an 8 month old, mobile little girl to celebrate Jesus' birth with!

Spoiled Little Girl Already!
