Happy Holidays!

And since Christmas is almost here...Merry Christmas too! I can't believe how quickly the holidays snuck up on us. Seems like we are barely done with Thanksgiving and all of the sudden it's go, go, go!

Thanksgiving was tons of fun - my family visited first, then the Silva crew. We hosted both at our house this year, and everything turned out great (despite our ham mishap)! In the words of Daniel, "you WILL have fun." ;)

Soon after we made the trek up to Jacksonville to visit the Moores, Poyntons, and Zeccardis...and that was a blast as always! Love visiting all of them!!

We've been back home for the rest of December so far but not without lots of visitors again! :) My parents came down for a few days to spend time with us and help watch the kiddos while Daniel and I went to my 19 week ultrasound. It's official...Boy #3!!! We couldn't be more excited!!! Somehow I think I was always destined to be a boy mama!

Daniel's parents arrived a few hours after mine left to help us prep for Logan's birthday party and of course celebrate with us! Logan had a dinosaur theme (surprise surprise, lol) with a bunch of his buddies at the park and he was over the moon. This year he was really into his party and all of the planning that went with it! He picked out the colors (red and orange plates, cups, etc) and the theme (he actually wanted a dinosaur/dragon theme, but I kind of pared it down to just dinosaur!) and the activity (he wanted a craft, so I picked painting dinosaur salt dough ornaments). His 4th birthday isn't officially until Wednesday, so we've got some more celebrating to do - donuts at school with his classmates and we're taking him out to eat on his birthday! Gotta love those week long birthday celebrations, lol.

Today was the Jingle Bell 5k and I'm proud to say...Mr. Baby #3 now has two 5ks under his belt! ;) and at such a young age! hehe. No PR of course, but it was still super fun dressing up in festive gear with my Moms Fit 4 Fun girls. I love love love that we're having #3, but man I can't wait to get back to my normal running pace and not worry about anything!

Only TEN more days until Christmas, and my to do list is still miles long...not sure it's all gonna happen this year. We've been trying to make it to pictures with Santa for so long now - first it was a scratched up nose, then a runny nose, now we're battling a stye on Logan's eyelid. Yeesh. One of these days it will happen (hopefully before the 21st or it just isn't happening this year!). Our week is jam packed and then it's off to my cousin's wedding & Christmas celebrations with the fam! Wish us luck! :)
