Not quite yet...

Lil Bit is still not here. That's okay because his due date is not until the 26th. He has officially "dropped" in my pelvis for about 2 weeks now. If he doesn't get here by the 29th, we will induce that evening. I really don't want to be induced so hopefully he will cooperate. That being said, now he needs to hold off for a couple of days so that I can be home Christmas morning to see Sydney open her presents.

Two weekends ago, Steve donated his time/car to a Toys for Tots fundraiser. He left his car inside the mall on display for the weekend. Out of all the cars on display, his car received the most "votes" (donations to Toys for Tots). Sydney got to ride through the mall when they were driving out. Pictures of the event are located at http://vetswithvettes.us/Gallery/Toys-for-Tots-2008?page=1 .

Yesterday Linda and Gene came down. Aunt Lori should be heading this way on the 26th and my mom and dad will be coming at the first of the New Year. Sydney is trilled to have family coming this way for Christmas and is already working out her own little plan to go back to Illinois with someone so that she can play in the snow. I don’t think that her plans include out how she will get back to Alabama so the plans don’t have Mom’s stamp of approval just yet.

She had her Christmas recital for school on Thursday and then her Gymnastics finally on Saturday. She did a great job and I will try to post pictures later. Now she is getting ready for Santa to visit the house and could not be more excited. She has told me that Santa wants chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate so we might make the cookies tonight. Steve said that Santa should have sugar cookies so those might have to wait until tomorrow night.

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Hopefully the next post or two will be about Lil Bit’s arrival.
