Merry Christmas!

Christmas with a 2 year old is pretty fun I have to say. Wren likes getting presents, she gets that whole open-the-paper-and-something-fun-is-inside kind of thing. Here she is playing with the old-school Fisher Price Chatter Phone. In our world of cordless phones and cell phones, kids still understand how to use a rotary dial phone!


We spent Christmas Eve at my parents. One of Wren's gifts here was a Barbie car. It's surprising how fast a little girl understands what to do with a doll. :) Takes after her mom and aunty I guess!


This year Kenton and I decided it would be fun to do a cheese platter. We brought one to both our parents houses this year for Christmas. It was a hit! 
(I used this tutorial from a favourite blog of mine to put this together).


Names were drawn for Christmas gifts this year. Kenton made Cam a Jenga game from walnut in his shop. 


Not bad to look at, and also fun to play!


Christmas Day was spent at Kenton's parents where more presents and food were to be had!


Rachel and Dallas, the dress still fits, yay!


I drew Kyle's name, and Kenton sweetly made this Jenga set for me to give to him this year. Again, lots of fun!


Wren cooked up a storm and served a ton of  pretend coffee and tea with her kitchen set.


Family photo- please just pretend Wren is smiling...


Happy Holidays! Wren required everyone to put on their paper crown.


And finally, Wren helped roll dice in the game.

21 weeks...


...and it's a GIRL!!!



So I actually ended up having to go for a second ultrasound. What you can see in this picture is a side profile of her head and her little arm and hand in front of her face. 
Cute!

We're Going to Have A...



BABY! 


Um, but we still don't know what it is! The baby was curled up so tight the whole ultrasound that we couldn't actually get a look at it's gender. Sigh! 
However, everything looks just fine and well, so are happy with that :)

Ultrasounds can be tricky to pick out what you see, but I hope you can find the head which is at the bottom of the picture, and it's all curled up with it's little knees almost in it's face!





This is a closer look at the knees-in-face action. Silly little thing!

Tomorrow



Tomorrow we find out if Wren is going to have a little brother or a little sister. Maybe this is why I haven't been sleeping as well, I've been thinking about it too much! Everyone asks if you have a hunch on what you are having.
 I actually think it might be a boy purely because I keep seeing cute boy clothes, have great ideas for a boys room and so on. However, we have no preference this time around.

And of course, we will be sharing with everyone what it is. We do not have a name picked out for either gender this time, so you will just have to wait for that. :)
