Tis the Season

It's that time of year again...the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season has kept us very busy.  We have had holiday events every night of the week, which has made December fly by so far!  Last weekend, we traveled to Grand Island for a winter wedding of Kyle's high school friend.  It was a beautiful wedding and it is always nice to catch up with old friends.  

Getting ready.

We took a quick "family" photo before we left.

We had another OB appointment this month and got to hear the heart beat.  Kyle recorded it on his phone and I think I used up all the battery after replaying it so many times.  15 weeks, 158 bpm.  Everything is going good.  I have stopped losing weight and I am now slowing gaining.  The only issue is that my blood pressure is really low, which causes me to not feel good through out the day.  The baby is sitting very low and so everyone's guess is still...boy.  I guess we will see soon enough!

Our good friends, Michelle and Adam, asked us to get a little festive with them and run in the Ugly Sweater 5k run.  Since I have not exercised that much during my pregnancy, I was a little hesitate, but was up for the challenge.  We joined the thousands of other crazy people and had a blast!  We started the race with a nice paced jog and when the snow started coming down we picked it up a bit.  Needless to say the rest of the day, Kyle and I moved a little slower and complained of all our aches and pains!

Mike Main Mustache?? HAHA!

Lookin good boys! 

Michelle and I (& baby) getting ready to run.

After the race... in the snow, waiting in line for hot chocolate, apple cider, and Sam Adams.

One week until Christmas with the Rupp's and then the Main's and two weeks until we move into our new townhome!  We have a busy couple of weeks ahead of us, but we couldn't be more excited.  If Bean cooperates, my mom is going to tell us if we will be shopping pink or blue!  I will keep everyone posted as soon as we find out! Kyle and I couldn't think of a better Christmas present this year~

Since Little Bean is still 'baking in the oven', Maverick and Maggie are our babies now.  Since the weather is starting to show its true Nebraska colors, the kitties have been extra cuddly.

Have a wonderful Pre-Christmas week and check back after Jesus's birthday to find out boy or girl!!
