Quick Update

Sorry to all for not updating in so long. Here is the scoop with what we have been up to lately. As of Thanksgiving, tree service work has been really slow for Craig which means that we have been blessed to be spending a lot of time together. Thankfully Craig is a pretty handy guy so he has been doing side jobs here and there to keep the bills payed. I wish he was home this much all the time. I love it! As the days and weeks pass my stomach grows and I get excited at the idea of seeing this new baby physically in our hands. We can't imagine how our life is going to change with two but we are excited to figure it out. And I am excited to not be pregnant anymore. This pregnancy has been much more difficult and draining on my body then with Isaac. But thankfully I know there will be an end to it and this child is definitely worth it! We are enjoying a new family tradition for Christmas this year. we were blessed to come upon a wonderful Advent book that we read each night. It works similar to the calendars in that every day we open a door and reveal more of the story of Christ's birth. Isaac is beginning to understand the story more since every day we start at door 1 again and read up to the current day. He loves the whole process and we have truly enjoyed being able to incorporate the reason for this season every day of the month. We pray this update finds all of you well and that you take the time to really reflect on the meaning of Christmas as individuals as well as with family and friends.
