It's been a busy and fun holiday season over here. It hardly gives me any time to think about my pregnancy, but I promise you, Squish#4, I do think about YOU a lot. Overall, I feel pretty good and it's been really nice to have my energy back. I still get nauseous from day to day, and I've been dealing with a headache at least once a week, but I really can't complain. I'm still able to make it to the gym 3-4 days a week, and I'm managing everything pretty well, especially considering the business of the holiday season and all of Andrew's traveling.
These were taken at 20 weeks, just before baby's anatomy scan. I look about a month ahead of where I was with the other three!

To kick off the Christmas season, we headed to the local Christmas tree farm with friends.

I already know that I want to remember this Christmas forever.
My mom and I took the girls to see the Nutcracker.

And one weekend, Andrew went duck hunting with his dad for his birthday,

And I managed to take the kids to see Santa arrive in a helicopter, and make gingerbread houses.

Adalyn was once again an angel in our church Christmas pageant. Elles Belles was not into it.

Ellie did do an awesome job as a cow in her preschool's nativity scene, however.

Last weekend, we had Andrew's company party in NYC and since my parents were willing to watch the kids overnight, we spent the night and got to see the tree after.

It snowed a bit more than was forecasted, but we were excited to come home and sled with the girls!
We also continued with our fun new tradition with our church friends, and did a little DIY Polar Express on the local train. SO fun!
And just to get us in the Christmas spirit a bit more, we went ahead and drove down to see a really cool house that was featured on an ABC Christmas lights show.
Christmas is only 4 days away, which is completely insane to me! That being said, I'm off to finish up some wrapping tonight. :)
