Nicole's Holiday Checklist

1. Make Craig & Allison take holiday photos. No easy feat, but they'll thank me later!  Allison at 21 months, baby bump at 24 weeks 
   
2. Get holiday cards out before New Year's.  A first since we've been married!
3. Decorate the House.  Allison can't help but say "tree pretty" or chocolate at least a couple times a day, she's loving her advent calendar...                                              
4. Shopping, Shopping, Shopping!  Craig and I went a little crazy in the Target toy aisle (lucky kid), otherwise I ordered everything online.  The $750 Amazon order still blows my mind but I was done shopping the first week in December and spent the rest of this month wrapping gifts as they arrived.  Craig and I struck a deal so he got to have his smoker before Christmas and I got my new flatware.  Finally, we can put away the "his & hers" sets we made ours when we got married.  We're all grown up now with matching flatware (it's about time!).
5. Make time for family. We got to see Andrea while she was in town.  That's us and the baby bump at 29 weeks. And finally Craig, Allison, & I made it to Zoolights!

Thank you baby for helping me take nesting to a whole new holiday form :) Now I'm just waiting for Christmas to hurry up and get here!  I can't wait to see Allison on Christmas morning!!
