Josh finished this semester yesterday and is SO happy to be done. He only has 3 semesters left and then it is on to grad school. He is working so hard and his grades are nothing less than impressive! I am so proud of my cute husband and all that he is doing. He is still working at Jonny Carino's and loving it. I love the work attire because I think he is pretty good looking in black myself:). He has been working hard in our home as well. He got the nursery painted and the crib set up. He also painted our bedroom with some help from his brother Travis, and it turned out BEAUTIFULLY!!! We have some finishing touches to do, but will post pictures of that soon.
I on the other hand seem to be slowing down the more he speeds up. We are down to the last few weeks, and I am really starting to feel it. Everyone says you get less sleep once the baby gets here, but I could go for a few good hours as opposed to a whole night of restlessness. It still hasn't quite sunk in that we are going to be parents, I guess maybe it won't until our little Lola is here, but we are definitely getting excited. I am still working full time and although somedays it seems impossible, I am so blessed to work with Ashlee and she keeps me going.
We tried the real tree thing last year, and it didn't work out so well for us. Although that is what I have always wanted, it was just alot less hassle this year to go with a fake one. We inherited my grandma's tree, nativity scene, and a few decorations, but it still isn't a finished product. I have this thing where it takes me FOREVER to make a decision about decorations. I looked for weeks and finally bit the bullet a few days ago. We are still looking for something for the top, and I have a few other ideas in mind, so eventually we will get it together. I am not one to spend money on just anything, so it takes me some time to get exactly what I want. Needless to say our home isn't overflowing with Christmas decorations, but I think over the years we will get the things that we really enjoy.


We feel so blessed this time of year for the many things that we have. Both of us have such wonderful families that we love spending time with. We have been blessed with great jobs that we enjoy and that are helping us stay afloat. Most of all we feel so priviledged to welcome a new little one into our home soon. She has already changed us both so much, and I can only imagine the incredible times to come. I am by far the luckiest woman in the world, Josh has been so patient and kind to me through all of these new changes that are happening and I don't think I ever realized how much I could grow to love him...and I know we are still at the beginning. We didn't send out Christmas cards, but we are thinking of all of you and hoping this Christmas Season is wonderful and full of many beautiful memories.

It was fun to see you guys last night. I just love talking to you Lindsey! I'm excited for you guys to have your baby, almost here. We have a little gift we'll have to drop off sometime, so we'll be calling ya, and we need to get together sometime too. I'm sick of us always talking about doing stuff and never actually doing it. Ha ha.
Can't wait to see pics of a cute new little baby! I bet she will be beautiful! I hope you are feeling well, and that you continue to do well until that baby comes! I want to see belly pics. I bet you are adorable pregnant! Enjoy your Christmas!
