17 + Weeks and Thanksgiving!

Just like the holiday season... my belly has arrived! No denying it now, baby is on the way! This is the last post with the November fabric, bring on December and Christmas!

My hunger has certainly picked up and I'm trying my best to make the right decisions like veggies and dill dip over mounds of not so good for me deliciousness... I may slipped a little bit. Don't judge! Who knew cheese slices dipped in dill dip would taste so good!

17 Weeks + 1 Day

So Thanksgiving, we could not be anymore lucky to have the opportunity to spend the holidays with both of our families. We started our trip in Waukesha with my family. Wednesday night I had the chance to see 10 high school friends who some of which I haven't seen in years. It was so great to catch up with them and to share our baby news with them all. Thursday started in the usual big brunch kind of way. Yummy French Toast brunch dish greatness, fruit and sausage. My mom then took some pictures of Chris and I for our Christmas card, made some grub and the whole family came over to enjoy each others company. Oh yeah, and GO PACK! 11 wins, 0 loses! Keep it rolling!

New Mom and Dad's sleepy time after dinner. If they wanted a break from Ella they sure got it on Thursday.  Between Nana and Auntie Tina, Miss Ella was well taken care of. She also got some quality time with Auntie Ashlee during the Packer Game, she kept me warm while we napped :)

Friday we traveled and lucked out with light traffic. Spent the day getting rested up for Thanksgiving number two.

We also went out for fish Friday night and it's my first time out for fish where I'm unable to have the usual Brandy Old Fashion. So this is how a preggo does a Friday Fish Fry....Water and Olives...Yup! So sad but all worth it.

And lastly,  Saturday we spent the day with Chris' family in Port Edwards, Mom and Dad, Grandma, Uncle Pat, Jenny, Tim, Sarah and "the boys", Kellan and Keegan. Great times! We also try to get a family picture each year and with the addition of another pup and another baby things are getting tough! It only took about 30 shots but all we needed was one!
