This month has been very busy. We are all getting ready for our baby girl to get here. I have done my best to spend extra time with the boys and do fun things throughout the week. Our world is about to change for the better.
Luckily Aunt Erin joined us on the 23rd and Aunt Angie is joining us on January 4th. We are so excited to have them here in El Paso with us. The boys are thrilled to spend time with their Aunts and I know their Aunts are just as excited to spend time with them. Here's a look at how December went.
9 months pregnant and very ready :)
December 3rd Preston had his work Christmas Party. It was so much fun. They had bounce houses, which Jackson was a huge fan of and a skating rink. There was live music, food and of course Mr. & Mrs. Claus.
Jack did not want Santa to hold him but was absolutely ok with Dad holding him close. Beckham was also fine being close by but wouldn't let go of me. I think the pic actually turned out ok regardless.
We got stopped to take a family pic right after the balloon booth. I'm glad we got this shot. The boys had a blast running around and eating treats. Everyone at Preston's job was thrilled to see them. We had a great time spending time with coworkers and letting the boys just run and enjoy their time as well.
My heart :) These two love sitting on this one chair while they watch their shows. Definitely best buds!
Jack brought me my camera one day and said, "Cheese?" I asked if he wanted his picture taken and he said yes. I got a couple shots of him and Beckham. They are just too cute!
I'm melting...
Such a little stud! Love this boy :)
This sexy couple celebrated 6 years of awesomeness on Dec. 18th. I cannot believe it has been 6 years. Time is going by so fast. I wouldn't change a thing in the time we have had together. Love this man of mine!
I made this delicious monkey bread for Christmas Eve morning. That may have been a mistake because I think we all gained like 5 lbs each. Just couldn't stop eating it. It was so delicious! I think we have a new tradition for each year to come.
Aunt Erin is here!
We took Er and the boys to a teppanyaki place and it was delicious! Jack was a little apprehensive about the fire but Beckham loved it.
Jack watched closely as our chef worked his magic on the grill.
Such a fun lunch.
Christmas jammies. How cute are these two?!
So happy it's Christmas morning.
New books and cars for this guy. He loved it!
New books and dinosaurs for Jackson boy. Also, a big hit in the Clark home.
Dinosaur book that is read often.
The big item this year was a trampoline. Both Mom and Dad and the boys love this one. Let's get some energy out by jumping :)
Santa brought Mom and Dad a rower for Christmas this year. Let's hope it helps shed some pounds once this baby gets here :) The boys rowed with Dad and would take turns rowing by themselves.
A celebration to remember for our 3 year old boy! We went to the zoo for Jack's birthday and to try and walk this baby out :)
They loved every exhibit we went to. We hadn't been in months so it was fun to see how Jack and Beckham responded at the ages they are now. Beckham was very excited and Jack ran from exhibit to exhibit. It was a lot of fun. As a mom you really enjoy watching your kids be excited and enjoy themselves. That's a treat for me anyway.
Beckham boy and Aunt Erin looking at the zebras.
Watching the giraffes.
Bad lighting but Jack enjoyed riding on the tiger.
Beckham had to try too :)
Er helped me decorate for Jack's birthday while he was napping. I think we did a pretty good job :)
We wrote on the mirror with a dry erase marker and that was one of Jack's favorite things he saw. We ordered Jacks favorite dinner which is pepperoni pizza with breadsticks and enjoyed some delicious cupcakes after.
Birthday boy and his cupcake :)
We had to blow out candles a couple of times because it was so much fun the first time :)
Yum Yum
Oh how I love him so.
Beckham dove right into his cupcake too :)
A brand new book! Mommy and Jack were excited about this present. A new book to read.
We had to read it right away :)
Hungry Hungry Hippos was a huge hit as well. We played several times and it was even fun for the adults :)
A bike!! This is a balance bike and Jack has really enjoyed it. He loves that it has a bell :)
Beckham went for a spin as well :)
I think overall Jack really enjoyed his birthday. Holidays and birthdays just get more and more fun as the kids get older. It's so much fun seeing the joy and excitement on their faces!
The day after Jack's birthday we went into the hospital to be induced. We were excited that we didn't have a little one join us on Christmas or on Jack's bday. Her story comes next ...
