5 teeth and counting!

Bella got another new tooth. She has the Left upper canine tooth in now. She is really starting to get the hang of table food. She ate sloppy joe meat and green beans on Friday at daycare. She is eating gerber graduate finger food and chewing or gumming them pretty good. She is not a fan of 3rd food b/c she expects them to be soft and just swallow them, but then she finds a chunk and chokes. Bella had her picture with Santa on Friday as well. She did not smile just looked at him like he was crazy. I'll post the picture if I can. Bella also drank from her sippy cup for the first time today. We decided to get her a different one, b/c she wasn't sucking on her other ones she was just biting the spout. The softer spout made her suck on it like a bottle and then boom, she had the hang of it. She does sometimes drink too fast and get a little choked. Well just one week to go until Megan is here!!!!! Very excited can you tell?

Finally, I'm writing something!

Well I've been busy lately so I haven't had a lot of time to post anything. We are getting ready for the holidays, so that means our decorations have been put up. We had an exciting time so far with our tree. We got it on a Monday night (12/1) and then we hosted small group at our house on Tuesday, so I got up early to decorate Tuesday morning. Well the tree was a hit, but then about 12:30am I woke to a huge crash and the tree had fallen over and everything I worked so hard to put up fell off. So the picture below is of the second attempt to decorate. Well Bella is the only one I have bought for so far, she's easy to buy for, plus I can shop with her and she not realize it's her present:) I'm thinking it won't be like that next year. Brett is driving me crazy lately, he's on Santa's bad list and probably won't get anything for Christmas. All he has asked for is $1500 gun and no way am I buying it for him. He won't tell me anything else he wants, so he doesn't get anything. Well looking forward to seeing Megan in 2 wks exactly from today. I have missed her so much! Please pray for my brother-in-law H.A. as he is in Iraq and pray Megan can cope with his abscence. Well if I don't check in again, I want to wish everyone Happy Holidays.
