I'll be home for the holidays

So in just a few hours Tim, me, Jolie, Lola and about 5 huge bags of presents will be making our journey up north. We cut back (as many people did) on Christmas presents this year...the first real impact of only have one dependable income instead of 2 and if you know me I love buying presents for everyone! Some how we still ended up with a lot...I can't wait for this time next year when the tree will be stuffed with the baby beans presents as well.

I am 17 weeks along today! It's so amazing to think it's been that long and that I'm almost half way there to having the baby in my arms. Now that I'm feeling it flutter around it's so real and so amazing. I really can't express how excited, scared, happy, joyful I am to finally have the baby I've wanted. On January 11th (strangely this was the due date for our first pregnancy) we will be having the ultrasound to see if we have a little girl or boy. I'm so ready to call them by a name instead of just baby. I've been slipping into the bad habit of saying "she" so maybe that's a sign!

I'm hoping for good weather so everyone that is traveling can do so safely. Hopefully Steph and Bridgette make it to Iowa before the storm and Wednesday is nice so we can all have our (what's went from 3 people to 11 people) dinner!! Tim and I also have a very important question to ask them and it would be really nice to do so in person :)

Off to run last minute errands, load up the car, then wait for Tim to get home so we can start our way!!!

Happy Holidays to everyone :)
