We had a great Christmas, it was our first Christmas that Nathan, Becca, and I spent with just the three of us. On Christmas Eve we had a crab leg dinner! Then Nathan read the bible story, we sang some Christmas songs, then opened Pj's! We loaded up in the car and drove around our neighborhood to look at Christmas lights. We had a big snow fall that evening that really made it feel like Christmas. That night Nathan and I put together Rebeccas kitchen that we were so excited to give her, then we watched Christmas Vacation. On Christmas day we woke up had a fun breakfast and opened up Gifts! It took a minute before it clicked with Becca that the Kitchen was for her to play with, but once it finally set in she was pretty excited about it. That day we made some Sugar cookies, and went to the hospital to visit Leslie (my mother in-law) She had to have surgery a few days before :(. Then we went over to the Critchfield family party (Nathans moms side of the family). And wait theres more! So my dad has been over is Saudi Arabia filming an Imax movie, he got home late Christmas night. So on the 26th my mom, dad, and brother Alex came up to celebrate Christmas with us:) So we got to have 2 Christmas days! Lots of fun, I think I would do it that way every year from now on if I had it my way. Anywho I am done now, hope all of you had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year! I am excited because that means it is closer to the time our baby Girl will get here!
First off I am sorry about other tags that I forgot to do, I am actually going to attempt it this time. Rachelle says I need to write 7 random things about me :) Yea!
1. I am very random, if I decide I want to do something whether it's one day I wake up and think to myself I want to cut me hair, or paint my whole house another color I do it that day. (drives Nathan a little crazy sometimes:)
2. I love Rebecca's little smells! Even down to here stinky diapers (I am so weird). I use to go in her room at night and just sit there and take in her wonderful smell!
3. I am a freak! I am the one that shuts down the house at night because Nathan is usually sound asleep before 10 O'Clock! I check all the doors, and windows at least 3 times, and then check on Becca another 3 times before I go to bed at night. Also I still have to sleep with a light on because I get scared!
4. I drive the speed limit. If any of you knew me before I was married or had a child I was a crazy driver! Now I am always telling Nathan to slow down, drive safe and wear a seat Belt! I am super paranoid of getting a ticket, or hitting a dear! I am totally blind at night, and will not drive unless I have to.
5. I really don't like folding Laundry! Hate is a better word to describe what I feel for it. I really don't know why because once I finally do it I feel pretty good about myself. I let at least 3 loads go unfolded before I finally make myself do it!
6. We are a totally crude family. I am really starting to notice that now because Becca repeats all that we say. The other day when she let one slip and said "FART" I thought to myself maybe we need to use some other words. Now she calls them Bum Bombs (don't know if thats any better, but Nathan was the creative genies behind that one).
7. I am Happy when it is Cloudy and stormy outside! If it is sunny my mood is not nearly as good. Yes I know I am very weird! I love Snow, Rain all that comes with storm :) Unless we are on a vacation in a warm place then I like the sun.
I know it said Seven but I just want to add I LOVE BEING A MOM! And I love being married (although it took me a while to love being married ;) love you Nathan. Me and Nathan really get into Homes! we love to sit and talk about all that we want in our house, and would love to renovate one someday! We like to go drive around Salt lake and check out all of the cute places. He has about as much as an opinion about decorating as I do! Ok now for all of you who are to be TAGGED! I tag......April Atwood, Taryn Richardson (like you actually will), Audrey Crisp, Catherine B, Andrea Keck, and Kristen T (although I think you already did this tag :) Have fun!
