Baby Shower

This weekend my family threw me a baby shower. It was really nice to feel the support by many friends and family. Thank you to everyone that shared this special day with me!

Baby Nursery

During Christmas time my family was in town and so I thought it was a perfect oppurtunity to get the Nursery ready. My mom and I went to home depot to get everything we would need to paint, and a light fixture for the fan. My mom and dad and sister then painted the room for me. I left for a meeting and came home and everything was done. I had some great elves at my house :) One wall is brown, two walls are pink and then one is striped pink and brown. It turned out really cute :)

After

It was then time to get the crib, changing table, and dresser for the room. I had a coupon to Burlington so we headed over there and found a really nice set for a really good price, so we had to get it. Christmas Morning Alan and I went to his dad's house and while we were gone my dad put the stuff together. I couldn't believe it when I got home everything was put together. This was a great Christmas present.

My mom then helped me make a blanket for the crib, and a valence for the window.

Who's Your Santa!!!

Christmas 2010

This year for Christmas we were able to spend time with both my family and Alan's family. My parents came down the Monday before Christmas and then left on Sunday (the day after). It was nice having them here! They were able to help me get a few things done around my house... They painted the nursey for me, and put my crib, dresser and changing table together. I had some great Elves at my house :)

Christmas Morning we woke up and got ready and went to Alan's dads house to open presents with them. We had a nice breakfast and then opened presents. It is a lot of fun to go over there because we get to watch the kids open their presents from eachother and from grandma and grandpa. We also have a gift exchange between the adults. Alan's dad and Cindy gave us a Canon Rebel Camera, money to buy a case, a movie, and suckers! We are very excited to use our new camera!

Then when we got back to our house we opened presents with my mom and dad,Lindsey, and Kelly and her family. It was fun to be able to watch my niece and nephew open their presents. They were pretty spoiled this year from their aunts and uncles, grandma and grandpa. Alan and I decided we were not going to buy eachother something very big because we need to start saving, well I guess I was wrong, beacuse Alan Spoiled me :)

Family Pictures

Last weekend Alan and I were able to take some family pictures.

I also have not been very good at taking pictures of myself to show off my belly :) So here is a picture of me when I was 25 weeks

Thanksgiving

All the grandkids! My sister and Law and I are both expecting. One in Feb. and one in March

For thanksgiving this year we spent it in Vegas. It was fun, but freezing! We stayed at a resort with my mom and dad, brother and his wife, and my sister and her husband and daughter. This was a two bedroom resort, so Alan and I slept in the dinning room on an air matress. It wasn't too bad, only when the matress would let air out.

We really had a fun time. We got there on wednesday night and stayed until saturday morning. On wednesday we sat around and talked and ate dinner and then eventually went to bed. Thursday morning we began to cook the turkey and then went to K-Mart. When we got home the turkey was almost done, and so we cooked everything else and got ready to eat. We had an amazing Thanksgiving meal!

Who said you can't have two plates?





After eating we all laid around slept and then got ready for BLACK FRIDAY shopping. Around 8pm we went to the vegas strip and went to the M&M factory. It was so cold outside! At 9pm we left to go to ToysRus. IT was crazy! So we ended up got to Walmart, at 11:45pm the craziness began :) After we were done at Walmart we met my brother at target where him and his wife were waiting in line. They were about the 15th in line. We then got into target got what we needed, and then went to over to mall and Alan and I decided we were ready to go back and sleep. We stopped by home depot and then went to bed. Friday afternoon we went to the mall and then went to Marie Calendars for Kristy's brithday. Friday night Kelly and her husband and their two kids surprised my mom and dad and kristy. They wanted to come see them so they showed up around 9:00pm. We sat around and talked and then went to bed

Saturday morning we layed around and then packed up to go home!

Update on our little girl : Since blogging last I have had two doctors appointments. Our little girl is doing great, and growing! I can't believe that she is already 24 weeks, and in no time she will be joining our family. She is very active, and loves to move around!

Our family of Two will soon be a Family of Three!

Yes, It is true Alan and I are expecting! We are very excited to announce that it is a GIRL!! She is due to come to our family in March.

For our Fleming family Halloween party we came up with costumes that would announce this exciting news. Alan was the Bun Maker and I was the Bun in the Oven.
