Hope yours was a wonderful as ours!!

We had family come up from San Diego to spend the holiday with us. Grandma, Grandpa Crean along with Uncle John and Aunt Jess drove up on Saturday. Uncle Michael, Aunt Gaile and cousin Keira drove up on Sunday (but they are camping at Dad’s favorite Lake Folsom.) We had a great time Sunday night and Christmas Eve (although Mom had to work.) Christmas morning we had a yummy brunch made by Aunt Gaile and opened presents. We even took a family portrait (but we’ll have to wait to get a copy from Uncle Michael.) Grandma and Grandpa left Christmas afternoon as they had to get back to work like Mom. The rest of us went out to Uncle and Aunt’s campsite for good food and interesting debates. Overall it was a great week!

The weekend before we went to Nonna and Papa’s house in Windsor to celebrate with their friends and other family. It was the first time many people saw Mom’s larger belly. We had a great time seeing everyone and playing with cousins. People are having a hard time with not knowing BT’s name though. It’ll be a surprise at the end!

Mom goes back to the doctor on Monday the 31st. She’ll be 6 months come then. Dad and Mom were just talking about how fast it’s all gone. Just a few months before BT is here! She is moving constantly. Dad finally felt her kick (although it was a little creepy at first.) Other family got to feel her as well. Mom’s been feeling good, just like her old self, except for the large belly and ridiculous heartburn. One more month and we’re in the 3rd trimester and heading for the home stretch!!
