Today is Christmas and it was a great day for my family. Blake really surprised me with my gift - which I love! He got me a Willow Tree people nativity set. He also surprised me by buying candy and stuff for the stockings and actually stuffing them. This Christmas presented a few difficulties when it came to shopping and such - you know, with Johnny, so it was nice to have some Christmas surprises.
On Christmas Eve we went to a party with Blake's family. It was a huge turn out and was a great party. They did a Nativity scene with all the little kids and Johnny got to be Baby Jesus. That was a neat experience. I did laugh, however, because the girl playing the angel carried him in because "Mary" was like four years old and I'm sure that Johnny was at least half her size. (PS. At his two months appointment he was 23 1/2 inches long and 11 pounds and 12 ounces. That's the 72nd and 52nd percentiles, respectively.)
My dad also came up huge with some great gifts, although it wasn't a car, that's what my 17 year old sister got. And not just any car. She got a 2008 Hyundai Accent. Nice, new, shiny, and I'm excited for her. If anyone deserves it, she does, so no comments on her being lucky or spoiled or anything. :) My dad also got our dear doggy, Annyong, a giant bone, which she spent the entire afternoon outside eating. She brought it inside hours later and it was mostly gone.
Blake's mom got me a ton! and I mean A TON!! of scrapbooking supplies so I've got to get busy on that. I'm excited. I'm no good at it, but I'm excited anyway.
My dad came into town and was staying at a motel with a swimming pool so we packed up some key lime pie and cheesecake and all headed over there to go swimming. Including Johnny. I think he loved it - by which I mean he didn't cry. Also, I have got to point out how adorable I think Johnny's swim trunks and bathrobe is - and also how adorable I think my whole family is.
I think our camera had a hard time focusing with the water in the background, so some are poor quality. Enjoy the pictures, and Merry Christmas!
I sure wish I could figure out pictures on this . . . I thought for sure I had loaded like ten more.
