Hi everyone! I thought I should maybe get some Christmas photos on here before I have new information for you on our little baby due to come soon! Jordan is growing RAPIDLY and I am rapidly GROWING. I hate to say it, but I am very much ready for her to get out of me. I was not this uncomfortable with Harlie, and it's getting pretty miserable. I have a headache every day now, because of the lack of sleep... Oh well. I know it really is all worth it in the end. But my mood is not as great as of late, so I want to get Christmas photos on here before I lose all drive to do so. Anyway, we are all doing well, and things are pretty much in order here - I even have most of my customer orders completed and out of here; I should be able to complete the others in a short amount of time. Enjoy the photos!
Scott, Jen, Zoey, Roger, Brian, Gloria, Mike, Harlie, and Me on Christmas Day______________________________
We tried to get a cute photo of Harlie and Zoey.... well, it's near impossible to get a 2-year-old to sit still and hold a 2-month-old without making her cry!

Sweet little Zoey!

Well, I don't promise much before Jordan's arrival.... hopefully next month I'll have some new adorable photos for you!
So, except for the fact that she has a horrible cold, Harlie is really enjoying this time of year. She's already received a few gifts, and of course she loves that. She knows that tomorrow is Jesus' birthday, and we can hopefully begin a tradition of singing to him at some point over the next day or two. Since I'm in nesting mode, she thinks that what you get for Christmas is to bake a lot of cookies. She's loving helping with them, though. Here's her personality to a T - The other day we were making gingerbread cookies (just Harlie and me). I got the dough out of the refrigerator and could barely do anything with it because it was rock solid. I sat it on the counter and tried rolling it out, and I said "Harlie, this is too hard for Mommy to roll!" She said (in these exact words) "Let me try." Her tone while saying this was hilarious, because she sounded so irritated with me, as if she has to do everything when I can't handle it! Cracked me up. She did try - with her own rolling pin to boot - unsuccessfully. We eventually got the dough softened up, don't worry, and we made some delicious gingerbread men, women, and reindeer that she decorated with sugar and round button candies.
