Busy Christmas

Well, Christmas was as busy as ever this year. We had four stops, starting at ten in the morning and ending at nine thirty in the evening. It's so nice to see everyone, but very tiring! Our first stop was Shaun's mom's house. It a tradition every year to open gifts and eat scrambled eggs, with cheese, green chiles and ham and blueberry muffins. Very yummy! Emma's gifts included a tricycle, I got a breadmaker (which I have used twice already) and Shaun got a huge gun that he had wanted really badly.

And on her tricycle.

Then, we stopped at home and loaded up the car for the next stop. (And un-loaded all the gifts) Emma then got a kitchen set and an easel, among many other things! I don't know where we are going to fit all of these gifts! Two more stops rounded out our day. I love Christmas, but sometimes it can be pretty stressful! Below are some random pictures.

I had my 37 week ultrasound on Friday, the baby is still breech. Which I knew since I can still feel his head in my ribs. They estimated his weight at 7 lbs 1 oz. I don't trust their estimates. When I was pregnant with Emma they estimated that she weighed 5 lbs 9 oz and she ended up being 9 lbs 2 oz 2 weeks later. So, I guess we will see very soon. Tomorrow, I'm going into the hospital and they are going to try to manually turn him into the head down position. I hope that it works and saves me from a c-section. But, if it doesn't work I will be having a c-section on January 8th. So, please pray that it works!
