December Happenings

Ah, what a December it's been... Let's start with the fun stuff.

Look at my little Rainbow Brite! She's loved gripping onto toys lately... including Betty, her Christmas doll.

I went back to work on Tuesday, Dec 8 (exactly one year from the day I found out I was pregnant! Life is ironic.). Adam surprised me on Sunday with flowers, a babysitter (thanks, Nonna and Papa) and a night out! We tried a new restaurant on the square, Piastra, followed by our favorite - ice cream! He is the absolute sweetest man in the world, and I can't believe he's mine!

I'm telling ya, this Merlin Magic Suit is life changing. We decided it was time Aiden started sleeping in her crib - I wasn't sleeping great (duh), but I could also tell that she wasn't either. Sunday night was our first official night, and she did great! (She's been sick all week, so I don't know if that has anything to do it.) I'm keeping track of how she does every night (Adam says I'm writing a research paper), and for two nights she's slept 11 hours - waking up only once for a couple hours! Of course, we still make sure she's totally asleep before we put her in the crib. We're not quite ready to let her cry until she falls asleep.

I ordered her a First Christmas ornament from Etsy, and I love how it turned out. May her ornament collection begin!

Merry Christmas, Adam! This tattoo probably deserves a post of its own, which it kinda already does! Check this post out for the meaning behind it...

My gourmet chef (Adam) made us sushi this weekend!

We took family pictures for Dave & Debbie's Anniversary/Christmas on Saturday. Poor Aiden still wasn't feeling great, but she was a trooper. She loves being outside, so it wasn't too torturous for her... we hope.

My loves. (Adam's head is basically the size of her. Hilarious.)
