We have been trying to get into the Christmas spirit here in Florida despite 70-80 degree weather most of the month! I know it sounds like I'm bragging, but let me tell you that it's hard to feel like its really December when you are surrounded by palm trees and wearing sun dresses. I would LOVE a good snow storm about now! Once we move to Louisville (some day!) I know I will look back at this and think I was crazy for wanting cold weather. Anyway, we have been doing some decorating and that makes our home seem like the holidays. I made Wilson a collar so he was in the spirit too. He is fascinated with our tree and originally kept trying to lick it. Now he just likes to sleep under it. My favorite thing so far this holiday has been watching TV on the couch with the only light being from the Christmas tree, a candle burning and my view of our tree with Wilson sleeping by it and our stockings hanging. Even if we have the windows open next to us as well. :)
On a different note, I just had my 16 week appointment and everything continues to go well for the pregnancy. I heard the baby's heartbeat with a Doppler and it was about 150 bpm....old wives tales say greater than 140 is a girl! While Dr. "George" was listening there was suddenly an extra background noise and the doctor laughed and said that was the baby kicking! Made me smile. Still hard to believe there is a baby in there! He told me to keep doing what was I doing cause everything looks great.
Picking out our Christmas tree!

Our First Stockings
Our Christmas tree ornaments are mainly ones our parents have given us over the years. My mom got me a new ornament every year relating to our life at the time. She boxed all my ornaments up for me this year to bring to our tree. We enjoyed going through them as we decorated, but Scott did NOT approve of this one. I'll have to sneak it on the tree.
Hope you have a happy holiday season!
