Busy weekend!

This weekend we had a lot of things planned! Our number one plan was to decorate for Christmas! After a lot of thought and consideration we decided to forego doing that this year. I KNOW! This will be the first time EVER that I haven't and I'm having a really hard time with it. BUT, this apartment right now is very tight and we're packing for our move as it is. To go to the storage unit and get all our decor and fill up our house with more clutter and the baby stuff is just too much. We know Bauer wont remember, even though I will. Plus we'll be spending Christmas in Roanoke. I guess next year when we decorate it'll just be that much more fun to see all of our special decorations!!

Friday night, we went to Lee's office party! Normally, they have a very adult party at a fancy restaurant but this year they decided to deck out the office halls and have a family party so that everyone could bring their kids! Bauer was such a ham! He was very social and behaved the entire time. Lots of people held him and he was as cool as a cuke! We had such a good time! Santa handed out gifts to all the kids and Bauer of course was the youngest! He got a fun toy for his carseat and stroller.

Saturday morning, we woke up early and decided to go for a little hike to our favorite state park..since there are so few around here! It was a little cold but we had a great time! We took our favorite trail and took lots of fun pictures! After our hike we decided to go have some lunch at the deli and do some Christmas shopping! We had a lot of fun and laughs that day.. :) Saturday night, we headed over to Seth and Julie's for our annual tradition of watching Christmas Vacation! We do this every year and this is the third year in a row! I made my famous cheese dip for Seth and Julie made homemade cookies! We all got into our Christmas jammies and got cozy for our favorite Christmas flick! Sunday, I watched the sweetest boy in the world while Lee shopped for us :) I'm anxious to see what hubs picked out! We're definitly pretty broke this year since I'm not being paid for my maternity leave. Our income has been sliced pretty hard...which is especially stressful around the holidays and buying a house and all the medical bills! AHHH! We will manage...somehow! :) All I need are my boys and my family. We're looking forward to my Christmas party for work next weekend and then I'll be heading to Roanoke for the week before Christmas and the holiday! Unfortunately, I will have to return to work two days after Christmas! :( We're currently interviewing nannies for Bauer. Wish us luck! That's all for now... hope everyone has a great week! :)
