.deck the halls.

I had my 4th Dr. appointment this morning. I've been scheduling them during preschool which works great because then I only have one child to worry about. Gage just loves coming to the Dr. with me. This is probably because I let him have a sucker when the Dr. gets in to keep him occupied. I have a bladder infection that I didn't know about so I got some medication to start today. We also got to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time! It was a "nice and healthy 160 bpm". We've tried the last two appointments to hear it to no avail. He assured me both times that the baby was still very small and if it was moving around at all we probably wouldn't hear it. So that was exciting. He also did an ultrasound for fun and I got a few more pictures.


After lunch today TJ and I sat down to write Santa a letter. He hasn't wavered on what he wants this year which has been nice. He wants a Transformer. Gage on the other hand changes his mind every time I ask. As of today he wants a watch.


We set up our tree right after Thanksgiving this year. I got a pre lit one at Lowe's on a Black Friday special. It sat for about 10 days before I got around to decorating it. I bought some new ribbon and some ornaments. I don't think Josh likes it. He told me after I got finished that he's not "diggin' the tree". Sigh, what's a girl to do? I like it and it was fun to do something different.


Lastly the boys have been real big into painting. Mom, we've been using the big Tonka pictures from the book you sent home with us. They work great! So here are some pictures of my little artists~
