Well, I haven't blogged in awhile because I have been so busy but I wanted to share with you all how our December went... First of all, I can't believe 2009 is over. This year FLEW by. I feel like the older you get, the faster time flies. We are enjoying every moment with our daughter though and looking forward to meeting our new baby in 2010!
For mid-December for a few weeks, we took off and went back east to Maryland to stay with my family for pre-Christmas. I told God it would be nice if we could have some snow while I was there... and we got a BLIZZARD! It hasn't snowed that much in MD for decades. It was awesome. Tim and the boys had fun playing in the snow and jumping off the playground into huge piles of it. Leah, on the other hand, was NOT too fond of the snow. I think it was too cold for her. She's a desert girl at heart.
We had a great time there with my mom and dad and we went to visit my grandma (Leah's "GG") and spent some quality time there with her. We also got to spend a lot of time with Justin, Jen, Olivia, and our little Godson Connor! I love those guys! Leah had fun playing with "Liyia" as she called her. We also made time to hang out with my cousins, Chris and Collin and got to see their first swim meet! Those are some awesome boys!
Leah learned a new word, thanks to her POP! Dad spilled some coffee in the car and accidentally shouted "Shit!" and well Leah picked it up and has been saying it every now and then since. It was so funny that it was hard not to laugh at her enthusiasm with the word.
We got back to Yuma a few days before Christmas. Christmas morning was fun, seeing Leah's face at all of her presents. It took a few hours to open them all because she was so en
thralled with playing with her kitchen set (which we should have given to her last because she didn't want to stop playing with it!) I'd say her first "real" Christmas was a success though! Tim's looking forward to next Christmas already.

Tim's looking forward to next Christmas already. Our little baby is turning into a big girl so fast! She's 20 months now...talking and running and jumping and repeating everything. She's so much fun! Every day is something new and we just love her!
Little bean is 18 weeks along now and my belly sure is growing rapidly! We're still not sure if it's a little brother or a little sister yet but we should hopefully be finding out within the next few weeks. I'm feeling great.. I have energy back and no more nausea! YAY! I'm enjoying this pregnancy and trying to take it sloowwww. I feel like I rushed through the first pregnancy, I just wanted her to be here already! But with this one I'm actually taking time to enjoy everything and not wanting it to go by too quickly, because I know the whirlwind that's going to come once he/she is here!!
Anyways, that's enough for now. Here's to 2010! Happy New Year everyone! xoxo, Sarah
