Christmas 2012

We got to spend Christmas in our new house. We had fun opening presents and going to visit friends and family.

The one thing special this year was Matt and I wanted to get the baby something from each of us, so we each bought and wrapped her presents separately and let the other open them for an extra surprise. Next Christmas, we will have a 9 month old to enjoy.




Matt put Christmas Oranges in my stocking.








Shoe racks for our closet. I was going crazy having to have EVERYTHING organized.






Little Women on DVD. 


From Chelsey. We weren't smart enough to skype as we opened presents.
Definitely next year though. 

Matt opening the package of clothes for the baby. 





Me opening the package for the baby from Matt.
 I giggled when I opened it. Definitely  a perfect present from Mattie.

Green Lantern onesie. I gave Matt a funny look and
 he told me, "the green lantern core is made up of both  girls and boys."

Wonder woman onesie. 

Matt was very proud of his present to the baby!

Loved what this said on the present to the baby from Matt's parents

Had to get Matt a body pillow, because I stole the one back he was using so I could sleep better.

Friends "Gender" Reveal Party - 11-11-12

Read the "Family Gender Reveal Party" post first to understand everything.

We had our friends over to reveal the gender of the baby on 11-11-12.
We did the same set up with the balloons, cupcakes, and fortune cookies that we did with our families, except we didn't make it as long. We had good food and some fun with them also.
