The month started with a visit from our Elf! He had planned to bring Nolan a special Christmas book everyday until Christmas.... until Nolan wanted nothing to do with him and was uninterested for the first week. Mommy decided the Elf will come visit again next year and hope it goes better....
We spent three days in Disneyland and had the most amazing time! (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3). On our second day, we found out if we were adding a little baby boy or baby girl to our family.... YAY!
Nolan discovered the joy of bubble wrap.
On a trip to Home Goods, we found this cool elephant that Nolan insisted on hugging and riding.
Nolan painted the cutest handprint Santa and reindeer, and Mommy had a moment of pregnancy brain when adding the reindeer antlers to the wrong side.... Oops!
He also crafted these cute gifts for Christmas!
Nolan has gotten very good at repeating his ABCs and can actually memorize and say his numbers, most of the time. I tried getting both on video but this was the best attempt for both! It's hit or miss when he can do it, but I can't believe he can actually count 1-10 when he wants to!
I turned 18 weeks with baby #2!
We spent an afternoon in Boulder City riding the Santa Train and loved it!
Nolan spent some time getting his Christmas reading in, and I couldn't help but die over the comparison between this year and last. He's so big now!!
With all of our Christmas deliveries, we had lots of boxes to go through and play with this month, and used them accordingly...
Since we were sick for a lot of the month, we spent a lot of time cuddling on the couch with blankets, movies and the iPad.
Downtown Summerlin had an adorable Christmas parade that we enjoyed after dinner for Uncle Georges birthday, and baked cookies the day before Christmas Eve for Santa!
We had the BEST Christmas Day with our family!
We celebrated the HALFWAY point at 20 weeks in our pregnancy!
I got to snuggle this little munchkin and he snuggled with his GF-to-be at our annual Friendsgiving party we held after Christmas.
I crafted a fun Sesame Street sign for Nolan's 2nd birthday pictures I was planning on taking.
I decided to take some of my own pictures for Nolan's birthday invitations and his 2-year photos!
Nolan had a ton to say and didn't make much sense, but it still sounded cute!
We celebrated New Year's Eve at the Luks and the kids almost stayed up 'til midnight! Most of them passed out about an hour before.
