Hey friends. Happy What's Up Wednesday. It may technically be the middle of December but Christmas is next week. This month has flown by, hasn't gone as planned, not as much done as I had hoped.

~ WHAT I AM REMINISCING ABOUT ~
How we announced we were expecting baby number 3 in 2018.
I wish she still got this excited for anything.
He is just so cute.
Look how little they were. And yes she still primary wears cowgirl boots.
I just want to eat his cheeks.
Christmas 2020.
~ WHAT I AM LOVING ~
I am loving our Elf on the Shelf adventures this year. Our Elf Gusgus got a friend, Snowflake adding to the fun. Plus having a 13 year old who is helping out too.
Protein oatmeal, I add a scoop of protein to oatmeal with fruit and nuts. My go to snack.
I am loving quiet mornings with just the light of Christmas tree and a fire makes it even more cozy.
~ WHAT WE HAVE BEEN UP TO ~
This is our first year doing an devotional advent with my kids. They are enjoying each night a different quick devotional, prayer and little activity. Discovering Christmas
There has been lots of just admiring the lights.
We got snow, but not enough to have a snow day.
As soon as they got off the bus and we had snow they asked to play outside. They lasted 20 minutes.
We have only baked and ate chocolate chip cookies.
We celebrated Brian's 37th birthday. We may not have gotten a date night but had dinner with family and friends.
The kids mailed their letters to Santa.
Austin has basketball practice once a week.
Anna is loving and learning in her swim lessons.
Lunch with Santa.
I have an Angel and Shepard in the children's Christmas pageant at church.
