Christmas Eve is our evening to spend with Andy's Mom, Peggy. We've done this for as many years as Andy & I have been together...let's see...at least 7 or 8 years! We spend the evening eating mostly. We typically end up stuffed with appetizers prior to even sitting down to eat our main meal. This year was no different...but we all managed to eat the whole meal, without stopping!! The best part of spending an evening of eating and cooking, is spending good quality time together. We started at 4:30ish and didn't leave until 10:45ish...super late for the preggo, but it was well worth it.
So it's taken me a while to sit down and write about this. We've been adjusting to lots of new daily adventures. And every minute of it has been a blast. I can say I have no complaints! Life as new parents is great and I can only see it getting better. We're adjusting to our different sleep schedule which is really helping our mental health...haha. Andy heads back to work on Monday next week and I can say I really will miss all of the help that he has provided Augie and I over the past three weeks. He's an amazing husband and father. So here it goes- Sunday, the 15th, we slept in, ate left over pizza for lunch, celebrated birthdays at Andy's Grandma Jeanette's...I ate something like three different kinds of cake and ice cream (and I think I went back for a second round of sweets), hung out at my parents for a bit, then came home and ate macaroni and cheese, from a box. Not our usual day of fairly healthy eating, but that's what we had. After dinner ...
