Merry Christmas Tree

I sent Travis out to choose our Christmas tree this year. He came back with a tree that is perfect for our living room! He bought it on Saturday, but we just today got around to decorating it. Quinn could not love it more! I am trying to teach him not to touch the ornaments; his way around this rule is to act like he is smelling the tree, and then move around until he bumps into the ornaments with his nose!

I tried to teach Quinn to say, "Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas." Instead he walks around saying, "Ho, ho! Merry Christmas Tree!" (If those of you who aren't around him enough to catch all of his words were to hear it, you would hear, "Ho, ho! Mayee Mas-Mas Ree!") He is also very excited about the Christmas Stockings (Mas-Mas Tock-eens)! We are going to visit Santa for the first time tomorrow!

Today marks week 37 of this never-ending pregnancy! I love my baby so much, but HOLY COW... I AM SO READY TO HOLD HIM IN MY ARMS INSTEAD OF MY UTERUS!! Absolutely no progress, more annoying jokes about being pregnant forever, etc., etc. at the doctor's visit. I just have to keep reminding myself that it is going to happen, and it really can't last that much longer (deep breath). As long as he is not born on Christmas or during the Biggest Loser Finale, everything will be okay (and if he is born on one of those two occasions... I'll get over it)!
