Oh my April is coming fast!

We've been very busy, the holidays just flew by. We enjoyed every minute though, E. was so into Christmas this year is was ten times more fun this year than before. We got a special gift this year for Christmas, Elf on a shelf, E. named his elf "Buddy" and his little elf even followed us to Lubbock just before Christmas. E. was very into Christmas lights this year and he just couldn't get enough of driving around and looking at lights. Now that the holidays are over E. says he's ready for Halloween....lol. We told him he's going to have to wait a long time for that. In December E. recieved a very exciting present from one of my friends, a twin bed, he's never enjoyed sleeping at night more than he does now. Of course it helps that we found a home for one of our 2 dogs and now the one we kept "Blue" sleeps on E.'s bed every night and "keeps him safe" E.'s words. 2010 is going to bring so much fun for us as a family, we're begin to get things ready for Mad's arrival. I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant and April is approaching faster than I can believe. We luckily saved up some Christmas money and got paint and fabric for Mad's room. Today we finished painting the beautiful pastel pink all over. To follow my mom will be painting a Cherry Blossom Tree that will come up and over her crib. I was surprised to find out how much cheaper it is to make your own bedding than buy it so I'm really excited to see how the bedding and curtains for Mad's room turn out. After finishing painting today I put everything back in the room and E. noticed for the first time his old baby swing. He used it at my parents house when he used to stay with them, he's absolutely in love with this swing. He sat in front of it for at least 30 minutes this evening and just watched it because he's so ready for Mad to be here. We'll see what the next few month have to offer before Mad's arrival....
