Christmas has

come and gone we had no babies. Part of me was hoping for a Christmas baby :-) I was way nervous on Christmas eve because in the last 4 years we've had two babies born on Christmas eve and I was like "oh no! I am next!" But I wasn't, obviously.

Christmas in the Wickersham house was quite nice. We had church on Christmas Eve, the kids sang some Christmas songs and helped with the service in general--so that was sort of stressful for me, but at the same time really enjoyable. Chris and I decided to stay and go to the next service so we could just enjoy a service rather than only going to the one we were helping to lead. Then we went to this Chinese restaurant (a tradition in our church) with a bunch of people and had a really good dinner. Rosa and Ave had a great time because there was another little girl there that is Rosa's age and they sat together. Rosa especially had a good time. Then we came home, went to bed, and of course Santa came :-) AKA my Mom sent a bunch of gifts that were way awesome. lol.

Christmas morning was cute cute cute. Obviously the girls had a great time opening all of their gifts. Then I decided to start a new tradition. I'm going to cook a pancake breakfast every Christmas morning. I did that this year and it was very nice to sit down with our whole family and eat some good ole pancakes :-) Then we all took naps, got up, and headed over to our friend's house for Christmas dinner. It's more like an open house kind of thing but they serve dinner and everyone brings something and it's almost always the same people every year. It's really nice to have a place to go on Christmas since we don't have any family out here. So thank you to the Brooks!!

So that was our Christmas. Probably one of our better ones since we've been here in AZ. In previous years we've been responsible for a lot that goes on at church on Christmas Eve, but this year it was very minimal for us. Purposefully.

Babywise there isn't much news. Just getting bigger and bigger and bigger haha. I think I might've dropped--if not it's just gotten really low. It's kind of weird feeling honestly. My stomach touches my legs now when I sit, I have to be sitting up straight though. Now that is a weird feeling I am not used to. lol. Otherwise not much happening. Just trying to take it easy and enjoy my last month(ish) without babies :-)

Well, that is all. Good day :-)
