Playing games at the Fall Block Party.
I absolutely adore her.
My family. A little blurry, but you get the idea.
I absolutely LOVE this time of year! October to January is the best, with Christmas being my favorite holiday. The smells, colors, food, Christmas movies, etc.... It just never gets old to me. I think Maddie is really going to enjoy Christmas this year. I am almost done with all her shopping and am really excited to see her expressions when she opens her gifts. Santa is bringing her a kitchen this year as her "big" gift and then she has a bunch of other small things...movies, clothes, baby dolls, blocks, etc... The girl is spoiled!
Jaime's family is coming in from Wisconsin and Washington state, to join us for the holidays. I know we will have a blast! Originally, the plan was to have everyone in for Christmas to see a newborn baby. Before having our first miscarriage, we were due on Christmas day. I was so excited about that. I have always, always wanted a Christmas baby. It broke my heart when we lost that pregnancy. I still pray, deep down, that before Im finished having all my children...that God chooses to bless me with a Christmas little one! It's just a special time of year for us. On the 30th, Jaime and I will have been married for 3 years. I can't believe how far we've come in such a short amount of time. I love him more and more everyday and couldn't have picked a better partner and daddy to our daughter!
I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season as much as the Crouse family is!
