Well life here is pretty slow going. It's still warmer then a winter really should be, and it's really making me miss being home for the holidays... Most days it doesn't really feel like it's really the holiday season here. Very very few people actually put lights up around here (we drove around for about 10 min and only saw 3 houses that had lights up... it was sad...). There are a few places you can go to see lights, ie the city park, TX, TX college campus... but that's about it. It's really made me miss being able to put up lights this year. But just means that next year when Matt and I do put up lights it'll be that much more amazing!! For a tree this year Matt and I made a tree and ornaments out of felt to hang up. Eric has loved playing with it! And I've enjoyed knowing that he can't really do anything to hurt it at this point. Our plan is to keep the tree and put it up for the kids to play with each year, and then add some new decorations as they wear out. So far I've found that felt candy canes aren't the best idea for Eric, he doesn't like that they aren't straight and keeps trying to pull them straight.
Other then that, not much has been going on. I'm still as pregnant as ever, Matt's still busy with school and Eric is still growing like a weed! Matt will go on break starting Friday and we're both hoping that Samantha makes her grand entrance sometime around the 26th. That way Matt not only will get to be there for the delivery but will also get to be around for a week to help me get used to having two little angels/recover.
We weren't able to get a Christmas letter mailed out this year, but we will post it on here and attempt to email it to the family.
But for now it's time for me to crawl into bed and hopefully get some sleep before the morning comes.
Sweet dreams!!
