First Christmas present!

With Christmas only 38 more days away I DO need to start thinking and making some lists! For years I have always had my tree up and home decorated WAY before now but for some reason I am just putting it off this year. I think it is because I look at my living room and see 4 pretty big baby items that have taken over and think "Now....where am I going to put that tree since the exersaucer, jumper and swing are in the way?" This weekend it will happen though!!!!

Back to my title though, I have been thinking hard about what we are going to get Jacie. I don't want to go overboard because I will leave that to our familes ;) But I do want to get her some things we REALLY do need and now that is she becoming less of a little baby and more of a big girl we are needing some older baby things. So this weekend while hanging out on FB I came across a post about 2 coupon codes I could use to get a convertible car seat. So with 45% off a 300 dollar car seat I said why not and got it for her. It came in the mail today!!! For now she can still fit into the infant seat but I gotta tell ya it is not easy to carry her around in it anymore. I am guessing we will start to put it to use in the new year. So there ya have it. Her first christmas present is a car seat!! and yes, I will wrap it and put it under the tree for her ;)

In other news, I only have 2 more days until I get a week off! I can't tell ya how excited I am. I havent spend a whole need with Jacie since the beginning of August! Also we have her 6 month appt on Monday. It is about a week early but I wanted to get in during my break so I didnt have to take a day off. I can't wait to find out how much she has grown!
