I just keep playing catch up...

I blame the busy-ness of the season...That's why I've been a little slack on the blogging. AND...well, I am 9 months pregnant! (See picture below) So, here's another catch-up post and I'll try my best to do better in the coming weeks! 

On Saturday night, Daddy and Andrea had a wedding party/reception. It was a lot of fun! Great food and good time catching up with some of Daddy's friends that I haven't seen in years. PLUS, Emily and Jeremy were there! And there was a fun photo booth...

 LOVE you, Emily! Fun times!

 Sunday morning - Not the most flattering angle, but still. I'm being real. This is me at 35 weeks, last week. I'm getting looks from people now like, "oh wow. She's big. I hope she doesn't go into labor right now!" At least that's what those looks feel like...

Sunday afternoon, we had our Perrin Christmas with my Dad's side of the family. It's always such a fun time! Of course, Lucy was the center of attention!

We always have our festivities at my Aunt Cathy's house - my Dad's sister. Lucy loves "Aunt Caffey" and was sad to leave her house, asking to go back soon! Too cute.

She got WAAAAAAAYYYY too many presents. 

 Lucy got a tea party set and "Aunt Caffey" gave her water and cookies to have a big tea party right smack dab in the middle of the living room! 

 Lucy loves her Aunt Emily and Uncle Jeremy!

 She kept poking him and he'd laugh. Too funny.

 She also got a princess outfit, a whole get up! 

(Please notice me all laid up in the recliner... lovely)

Dress up the next morning over PJs...

On Monday, I had to take a standardized test for my teaching license recertification - blah - but when I finished, that made me officially DONE with my class and all the stuff I had to do! YAY! So, we went out to celebrate at Kobe. I thought it would be fun for Lucy to watch the cook. She had a great time, but the most impressive thing was her skill with the chopsticks! Sheesh! She's a pro!

The next day, we made Christmas candy and Lucy and Brad took it down to the local fire station to give to the fire fighters. She told them Merry Christmas!

So, here we are now. I'm 36 weeks preggo tomorrow - 9 months. Wow. My official due date is January 16, but we are praying for December 28! (JOIN US!) Lucy was 3 weeks early and this would be exactly 3 weeks early for this one. 

Other Fun Events:
