We had a fun and blessed Christmas this past year. Luckily I was still able to travel and we were able to get together with the Llano crew and celebrate three Christmases total. But, before school was out for the holidays, Colten had his holiday party at school. We decorated sugar cookies, made ornaments, had a book exchange and lots of food to eat. It was a great way to end his first "semester" of school.

Before heading to Llano, we exchanged a few gifts at home between the four of us.

What a blessed holiday season, but it passed in a whirlwind for us!! I had thought it would be smooth sailing once Christmas was over, but boy was I wrong. I had no idea panic mode would set in and my nesting instincts would arise SO quickly!!! So, it has been fast and furious the past few weeks around here. But I think we're at a good point and absolutely ready to meet our sweet baby girl!!!

One last note...Colten is beyond excited at this point to meet Carrys. In fact, he usually doesn't miss giving me a hug or kiss without one extra for her. He is definitely made to be a big brother to sisters!!! After school one day last week, he jumped in the car full of excitement. It was library day and he had checked out Cinderella to bring home because he knew how much Cambry loves princesses. They didn't have a book just on Jasmine (which is her favorite), but he just knew she would like to read the story of Cinderella. That boy can just melt my heart!!!
Well, I may not post again until Carrys has made her debut, so lots of love to you all and a HAPPY and BLESSED 2011!!!
