Wow, finally, a new post!

I just wanted to post a couple pics of Christmas Eve. I don't even have Christmas day, they were taken on a different camera which we left at Nana's house. We are wonderful parents.
So, Tink and Kermit got to decorate a real Christmas tree on Christmas Eve, they loved it! We got a couple pictures of them perfecting their masterpiece.

Tink was in love with this little sled ornament. She hung it on the tree, then took it off and "sledded" it all over the house. Then, she hung it on the tree and "sledded" again, and so on. I think it may have made it back on the tree, but I can't be sure. She also made sure the owl ornaments got to ride on it, she's very sweet that way.

They had a good time, and it was a wonderful idea! Thanks Nana and Grandpa for being so fun!

Here they are in their Christmas jammies. I can tell you, I have never had an easier time getting these 2 to bed than on Christmas Eve. It was a Christmas miracle! That and the Benadryl probably helped a little.
We had a great holiday, and we got completely spoiled, thank you, everyone, for the wonderful presents! Nana and Grandpa, thank you for letting us come stay, and thank you for all you do for us. Your generosity is amazing. We love you!
On another note! We are scheduled to be induced Friday, the 23rd, so hopefully my next post will include pictures of our brand new little girl!!! We cannot wait to meet her!

Good luck with your new wee one. Many years ago I met you and your wee one at my house. I held him while you all ate. I loved it.

The Christmas photos are very nice. We wouldn't have known there were more if you hadn't confessed.

Phew! I have been anxiously checking to see if your little girl had arrived yet. Good luck with the induction (are they putting you on the pit or just breaking your water?)and I hope your labor goes well!

Hey NIckie, it was great to read this blog. I have been missing reading all of your entries. When we talked on the phone, you didn't mention that you were being induced on the 23rd. Wow! It won't be long and you will see your new beautiful baby girl. I am anxious to see her.

After I got your email saying that none of my emails got through, Dee surprised me and came to take my outside Christmas lights down. That was so sweet of him. While he was here, he transferred my email to a new program, so I resent the things that you never got. Hopefully, you will show Balloon Dog to Ethan and London because I think they will really laugh at it.

Please let me know if my email now gets to you. I love and miss you guys so much.

I just posted on my sister's blog that I wish our country weren't so spread out! I miss you guys!

The induction news is worth its own post! Yay! I am so excited that our baby girls will be so close to the same age and be able to play (if they ever see each other).
