Camryn: 34 weeks

After Kate's Christmas party, I had a doctor's appointment with a sonogram to check Camryn's weight. Sonograms are always fun, but seeing your baby at 34 weeks makes it so much more real.  She is growing perfectly and is already 5 lbs.  It's looking like we will have another 8 lb baby!  The sonographer got some pictures in 3D/4D of our sweet girl. 
 

She had her arm across her face most of the time...

Sweet profile...look at the frowny face in the bottom picture!

There is a good chance she will look like Kate and Bryn...this is Kate's 3D/4D sono we had late in the pregnancy. 

So thankful for a healthy pregnancy...and praying these last 6 weeks go by FAST!!!

Kate's Christmas Party


Kate's class Christmas party was this morning.  I always love seeing her in her environment with her little buddies at school.  The whole class said the Lord's Prayer and then sang Away in the Manger.  Then we did a little craft...a Christmas tree ornament.
 

Then we made a Snowman snack out of a cupcake and powdered donuts!


Kate's little friend Brynlee...this is their second year in the same class. 

Her teachers sent home the cutest crafts!

Just a few Christmas Tree pics this morning before school... 


 

Gingerbread Houses

Kate has been asking to make gingerbread houses for a few days.  She was so excited Monday morning when I pulled out all the stuff!  This was Brynlee's first gingerbread house to make but she caught on really quick.  She actually "decorated" more than I thought she would. 



Both licking the icing!
 Back to decorating...

Next year I will probably need to get better candy for Kate to actually make a house, but for this year M&Ms, Kisses, and Mike and Ikes did the trick.


When the houses were done, they decorated graham crackers to eat!

Sea Life Aquarium

Friday we met Karen, Emma, Abby, and my parents at the Sea Life Aquarium in Grapevine.  The girls had a blast running around looking at all the fish.  At the end, the girls all got to touch a starfish and a snail or crab.  Such a fun morning!

Prestonwood's Gift of Christmas

I took Kate to Prestonwood's Gift of Christmas tonight. I was so excited to take her on a mommy/daughter date. It started at 7...which is bedtime. She was so excited for a "special night." The first half was fun Christmas songs...Santa flew in on a sleigh, Rudolph flew in the air, and Frosty the snowman danced. She laughed and clapped and loved it!!! Then the choir came on about 8:15 and she asked when bedtime was. Next thing I knew she was asleep on my tummy. She slept through the 15 minute intermission. When it was time for the live nativity I tried to wake her up...to no avail. We were on the front row. There were angels flying over us, donkeys, camels, zebras, and llamas walking right in front of us, a sheep almost got loose beside us, and she slept right through it. Sweet girl...

Blurry phone pics before we left...
Cinderella wanted in the picture too...


Intermission...I had to hold her head up so she wouldn't fall off my tummy:)

The angels...

Wisemen...

Still out...

Worshipping baby Jesus!

She barely woke up to walk to the car...then slept the whole way home...
