Christmas!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas!  We had a really relaxed one, didn't do much at all, we figured it would be our last low key Christmas for a long time.  We opened presents in the morning, the puppies loved their presents!  And my present is pretty awesome too...
I wanted a small purse that I could easily put in a diaper bag, so I wouldn't have to carry around 2 bags at the same time.  This one has a little wristlet part to it, so I can actually even put my purse on the diaper bag strap or stroller if I wanted.  The inside has the credit card holder things, so I don't even need a wallet in it.  I love it so much, it's so cute and perfect!  After presents, Brandon made waffles for us and then we went off to church.  I got kind of sick at church, was feeling really dizzy and weird, so after we came home I laid down for a little while.  Then we got up, had an awesome Christmas lunch at McDonalds :) and went and saw Mission Impossible: Ghost Recon..it was good but Tom Cruise is definately getting old.  Then we came home, had taco salad for our Christmas dinner and watched football!  Definately not the normal Christmas, but it worked for us. 
Now that Christmas is done, I'm realizing how fast this next 5 and half weeks are going to go!  Saturday is New Years Eve! And then a week and 2 days later is the National Championship game! Roll Tide! And then 4 or 5 days later, we move into our new apartment! AH! And exactly a week later is Brandon and my anniversary.  And then a week and half later my parents and little sister come to awesome El Paso, and 2 days later, Micah is here!  How insanely crazy is that?
We (well Brandon) started packing some this weekend and its so weird...we(once again actually Brandon) took apart Micah's crib as well :(  We figured, even if he does make an early arrival before we move..well first off he would be quite early and probably in the NICU for awhile..and then even if he came home before we moved, he'd be sleeping in the rock n play in our room at first...it's just sad to see the nursery I worked so hard on slowly dismantled.  But his new one will be even better, and bigger, so we'll have more room for all the things we want to be able to give him.
I really need to start packing the hospital bag before Brandon packs everything up that I want in the bag..but I'm struggling to figure out what I need in the bag..
Tomorrow is another doctor appointment! YAY!  Sadly Brandon can't go to it, one of his soldiers decided to be stupid this weekend so he has to be at work tomorrow morning to deal with the issues and paperwork.  So today I need to come up with all my questions to ask tomorrow, because I know I am quite clueless on a c-section.
I weighed myself this morning..I need to stay away from McDonalds!  We have been eating out way to often lately.  I'm still below pre-pregnancy, but only 5 pounds below..it's creeping up on me!  Plus I'm starting to get worried about swelling.  I haven't had any swelling yet, but other women on my pregnancy forum that are due in Feb too, they've started swelling.  So less eating out, and more water drinking for me!
And guess what! We are in the 30's now! YAY! Only 39 more days until Micah is here!
