Christmas

Our last Christmas as non-parents. It was really nice and quiet and at the same time a little weird not being around our family. Luckily, we got to share it with the Nolfi family so we were equipped w/a mom and dad and brothers and wife!!! We all went out on Xmas eve to a Mario Batali restaurant called "Po" and it was perfect. On Christmas day, they all came here and we celebrated with a delicious brunch followed by a viewing of Son and Dom's wedding video that I put together for them as their Christmas present. It was really nice. Unfortunately, I am sick as a dog and didn't sleep hardly at all Christmas night. I loved the fact that I had gotten through my pregnancy with so few problems only to get smacked HARD w/a nasty throat virus that has moved to my ear. Good times!!! I'm experiencing major cabin fever so much at least get out to walk a little bit. Whew.

We had a sonogram last week and Baby is looking good. We saw some great shots of his/her little face: opening and closing his/her mouth while it's little hand kept wiping it's cheek (I know it's odd calling the child "it" but it takes less time to type). Also, the femur bone is very very long.....apparently about 2 weeks further in development than where I am. I just hope the head isn't too big....I'm beginning to really not look forward to getting my new little friend out.

Attached are a couple pics along w/a video of the child's movement. A little dancer is what I have!

Hope your holidays are great!!!
