I was so worried that I would have something crazy happen like my water break on Christmas Eve and no be able to spend it with my family, but I made it! I am so happy and we have had such a wonderful Christmas so far.
Yesterday we spent the day sledding and went to the house that goes all-out decorating for Christmas in the evening then came home and had some hot chocolate. We all had a good sleep, I'm amazed that Ceili slept until around 7am! This morning she was so excited to see that Santa had come and eaten his cookies, drank his root beer (she insisted that he wanted root beer!) and left us a ton of gifts! It made me so happy to see the joy on her face. I honestly could have received nothing for gifts and still would have been just as happy watch Ceili open gifts and have fun. Tonight we're going to Matt's sister's house to have dinner and open gifts and tomorrow we're going to my parent's house for the same with my brother and his family.
I figure if the baby can wait until after tomorrow, I will be happy! I just have a funny feeling that this baby will be coming early as I have had a few signs so far. I would like to make it to 40 weeks, but at the same time I really want to meet this little one!! I'm so anxious to find out if it is a boy or girl too!
I'm pretty happy that I have only gained around 15 lbs so far and have felt much better than I did near the end with our daughter. I think that has to do with the fact that I didn't gain as much weight. The only complaint I have had is my pelvis and lower back hurt, but the doctor says that's due to the baby's head resting on my pelvic bone right now because it hasn't engaged. I have my next appointment on Tuesday, so I will be looking forward to seeing how much I am dilated since I was 1cm last week!
