We had Jason's whole family over to our house for dinner and early Santa Claus for the kiddos. That was the 21st. Of course, Jason had been out of town with work and was supposed to fly in two days before that celebration, but he got caught up in all the bad weather and didn't get home until the day before (after traveling for about 28+ hours and some lost luggage). But, we got it all together and he had plenty of time to cook (heehee!).
Then, we went up to Mom and Dad's for Christmas Eve Dinner, which was really nice and of course, her decorations were rocking! Then, we did the usual for our Christmas Day activities... breakfast and presents at Yo and Al's and lunch with the whole extended family at MeMaw and PawPaw's. That's always nice, since we only usually get all the cousins together only a few times a year.
It was weird to think that our Christmas routine may be changing... Santa Claus? Us?!? Man, I still want to get Santa, not be Santa!!! I don't know... I guess it will be a whole new type of fun.
So, now that we're on to baby stuff...
We have got to get serious! Some things we have got to get busy on: finding daycare (yikes), finding pediatrician, decorating nursery (bye bye guest room furniture!), and getting all that baby stuff. Jason and I went to Babies-R-Us today-- just to look around-- and wow, there is a lot of junk babies need! They have more stuff than... I don't even know what! I asked Jason where in the world we were going to put all that stuff. He said you don't put it any particular place, it's everywhere, and that's why our house will always look like a tornado went through it! Whee.
I go to the Dr. tomorrow, but don't think it's anything exciting... just checkup. Our appointment after that will be the one where we find out what is in Whitney's belly (sex-wise, anyway!!!)
Finally, a quick baby shout-out to our friends Allison and Cade who had their little one come early... an early Christmas present! Campbell Marie Festavan was born 12/22. I got to see her a week ago and she is the cutest and tiniest little thing. Congrats you two... Lead the way then share what you know!

My guess is Babies-R-Us probably wants you to think that babies NEED a lot of things. . . most everything they carry, in fact. I like Jason's perspective, though, THAT'S what you want to hear a future dad say! Just go with the flow.
Well, y'all are just so cute I could barf! Here is something y'all definitely need to put on your registry:

Ain't that a hoot?!
As for daycare, I can't personally recommend it, but folks I know love the daycare at Life Church.
