Plate Painting


So today after my OB appointment (still 2 cm and cervix thinned) Hayden and I went to the pottery painting store for our 3rd annual Christmas plate painting. I took him when he was just a few weeks old and did his first plate using his hands and feet. Last year we made a Santa with his hand print and this year his hand print is a Christmas tree.He had a great time painting an ornament (a football helmet) while I decorated the plate. He is really into football and yells at the TV just like his daddy. When he saw the football helmet he chose to decorate that and kept telling me he wore Connor's helmet. Apparently a few weeks ago at Connor's football game Hayden wore his cousins helmet and remembered this. I offered him a reindeer and a Christmas tree to paint but the decision was made and a helmet it was.

Afterwards, we met Daddy at beef o'bradys for burgers then picked up Linus from the groomers. Hayden is now napping. We got up all the inside Christmas decorations this weekend and are about halfway done with the outside lights. I have been trying to get things in order before Hayden's baby brother (or sister) arrives. I am 37 weeks and counting. Will post a photo of my large belly soon.

Your new little on will be here soon. I am praying for you. Those last few weeks can be tough while you are waiting. You look great. ~Aunt Arlene~
