25 Weeks and Christmas Trees

It came to my attention that I still hadn't put up my 25 week picture!  So here it is!  
I know I still have lots of growing to do but my ribs are starting to tell me that things are getting pretty tight in there.  Its almost impossible to find a comfortable position anymore.  On the positive side, any movement from baby is a good sign and trust me there is LOTS!  I recently got the news that I do not have gestational diabetes so I get to enjoy a few more treats at Christmas!  Also I am almost in my 3rd trimester which means that the day is coming, and fast! I am so excited!!

This Christmas is going to be different for us this year since Natalie can really help a lot more.  She is starting to be more independent and loves to help!  Her speech has come so far.  Today she told me she was holding "a blue ball"!!  I was so excited so for her!  She is always asking "where it go?" or replacing the 'it' with a real word for example "where owl go?"  It's adorable! 
So back to Christmas, I wanted to start the tradition of her adding the star to the top of the tree.  It took a few tries and Dylan had to help but we got it up there!!

 And this is just in case you are having a bad day, her pretty face can cheer you up!
