I guess it's time

I don't even know where to begin since it's been so long since my last post. I guess the last thing I posted on was Halloween so I'll start from there. I'll try to keep everything brief so it's not a LONG read, just lots of pictures. November was fairly uneventful except for our trip to Arizona for Thanksgiving. We stayed with my brother Micah and his family. The boys all had a blast playing with Jackson, wrestling with Jackson, and jumping on the airbed with Jackson.
The drive home however was VERY long due to Holiday traffic,(which happened to be on my birthday). Aaron and I also celebrated our 6th anniversary in November.
December started off with Christmas decorating of course.
Carter and Brechin getting ready to put ornaments on the tree.
Kelman putting an ornament on the tree.
Me, of course decorating the tree.
The boys in front of our finished tree.
Kelman's 5th birthday party was next. Unfortunately none of his preschool friends showed up, which I half expected, but we were bailed out last minute by our church friends to make a successful party. Our next door neighbor Devan also came. We even rented a Scooby Doo bounce house; which was also a last minute decision.
My boys in the bounce house.
The kids playing red rover in the backyard.
Kelman blowing out his birthday cupcake, which was a snowman.
Kelman bouncing once again in the bounce house.
The cupcakes I made for the party. I made snowmen and Rudolphs.
Kelman chose to have a Jack the Pumpkin King cake, from Nightmare Before Christmas for his actual birthday, which we celebrated a week later, on his actual birthday.
The Nightmare Before Christmas figurines
Pirate legos which Kelman got from his Grandma and Grandpa Lyon. He plays with them almost daily.
Grandma and Grandpa Stubblefield got Kelman Star Wars dress ups. So here he is Darth Vader.
I had my 18 week ultrasound the day before Christmas Eve. I was very nervous and excited all at the same time. I went to the Perinatologist for this visit just to be on the safe side. So far everything looks great with the baby, which is a huge relief. I am still nervous though, and I think I will be until this baby is born. We did however find out that we are having another little girl. Yay us!! We're very excited and I've got friends and sister passing along all their girl clothes. Thanks everyone for your support. ;)
I don't have any Christmas morning picture because my parents took those with their camera. I think this was the boys' best Christmas ever. Carter and Brechin obviously got Batman and Superman EVERYTHING, including big wheels. Kelman got a variety of fun things. It was a great holiday and it was nice having Aaron home from work for a few days.
This last weekend we decided to get a hotel in Sacramento for fun. Saturday morning we went to the Discovery Science and Space Center. Kelman loved it since he is recently quite interested in space. Here are a few pictures from the day.
Kelman in a space suit.
All the boys, including Aaron, in space.
Carter and Brechin loved the dress ups.
The boys in their true form.
That's everything for us for now. Sorry for the huge post. My fault for waiting so long to update you on everything. I really just wanted to wait until after my ultrasound when I had some peace of mind, which I think I am finally STARTING to get.
We hope everyone enjoyed their holidays!
