It's beginning...

to look a lot like Christmas!
We got most of our indoor Christmas decor put up on Sunday.  I didn't put everything up, but both trees still are decorated.  Dan isn't completely done with the outside lights yet, but I think just having the roof and giant tree done would suffice this year :)

Our "traditional" tree: Dan & I both have a collection of ornaments from our whole lives that we put on here.  We have some made by our Grandmas, momentos from vacations, baby's 1st Christmas, personalized ones, and one from our first Christmas together.  We hope to start this tradition with our family, also.

This is my tree.  It's decorated with all different ornaments we used in one way or another at our wedding.  It's red, white, black and silver.

This is one of my favorite Christmas decorations!  My parents have given me a new piece to the Willow Tree set over the past few years.  It's almost complete! 

Dan made this nativity when he was in Vacation Bible School.  I have a set that's similar, but we just put this one up.

While I don't always love the hassle of putting decorations up for such a short time, I do love sitting in the dark with just the Christmas trees on. :)  It's a good thing we got it all set up, because it's also beginning to look like we might have a baby in 2-3 weeks!  Unfortunately, after my visit with the specialist today, I'm officially on "bedrest."  So I can pretty much relax, eat, and shower.  Ugh.  I have to go back every week to the specialist, but it remains to be seen whether I'll need a c-section or not.  God must think I haven't learned my lesson in patience, yet :)  Let's pray this leads to a healthy and happy baby girl!
