Too Cute

Alison did a good job of recaping the night last night. Go visit her to see what we have been up to.

We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Don't know how much I will post between now and then, but I am sure to have many pictures to share soon. Have a safe Holiday!

It's a Girl!

Today was the ultrasound appointment. It's weird. Even though this has all happened before and I knew that I was pregnant and could feel the baby move some, it all comes together when you see it through ultrasound. We have a health baby girl. She was measuring three days ahead of what we thought, but that is not enough to move the due date. We will have one more ultrasound next month because the baby was not being cooperative. The tech did not get a good picture of her lower spine and a profile picture. The doctor did not seemed concerned, so neither are we.

Growing up, I had always said that I would like to have two boys. Now we are going to be blessed with two girls. I could not be happier. We are so excited and trying to decide on names. Any suggestions? I don't plan on putting up a list or even really telling anyone of the names we are thinking about. We will, however, tell everyone the name when we decide. I don't want someones opinion to persuade our choice. But, I promise that when we decide we will tell. It will be before the baby gets here if we can make a choice.

To my wonderful husband.

Thank you for a wonderful 7 years, our beautiful daughter, and a great day today. I love you and am thankful for all that you do.

6 A.M.

So, Mylie decided to get up at 6 this morning instead of her usual 7 or 7:30. I was not happy about this, until I came down stairs and saw this wonderful sunrise out our back door. Hope you all enjoy it as well. Happy Monday, have a great week!

M-I-C-K-E-Y, M-O-U-S-E

Mylie has found an obsession. She loves everything Mickey Mouse. We went to the mall at Cool Springs to the Disney Store a few weeks ago when this obsession started and she had a cow! She could hardly stand it. "Me Mo" was everywhere. It was almost to much excitement for her. Mimi bought her three small dolls, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, and Donald Duck. She has carried them around everywhere she goes. She has to line them up when she is watching Mickey Mouse Club House in the morning. It is too funny. She calls Goofy, "Dig Dog." I think this is because he is really funny when they sing the hot dog song.

Earlier this week, Aunt Lulu came up to the house and brought a bag full of goodies. She had gone to the Disney Store at Opry Mills. She brought a Mylie sized Mickey dressed like Santa, and a Mickey and Minnie doll that are about a foot and a half tall. Mylie even like the bag that the Mickeys came in!

Christmas Tree O Christmas Tree

I love putting up the Christmas tree, I don't like how long it takes me to put it up. It seems like each year it takes longer and longer, but the end result is so worth it. Mylie likes to have the lights on all day if we are home. Its one of the first things she ask for in the morning. I enjoy siting in the living room at night with all the other lights off, drinking a cup of hot chocolate, or spiced tea, at just looking at it. It makes me very happy.

We have a Boyd's Bear Christmas tree. However, I am not sure this is what I want for next year. I am thinking of doing two trees. (where will I find the room?) This is my question. What colors do you have on your tree? Is your tree themed? I have seen so many pretty ones at the stores this year, I may have to hit up the after Christmas sales to get some new decorations.
