I finally got me a Canon Rebel!! I ended up finding an XSI on Ebay for just as cheap as an XS was going for. I played around with it this weekend and I'm hooked. I'm sure my Point & Shoot won't get used very often now.

Yay for Lily!!
She has slept all night that last two nights!! Woo hoo!! Monday night she fell asleep at 7:30 and didn't get up until 6:00 the next morning and last night she fell asleep at 8:30 and didn't wake up until 6:30 this morning. Let's hope this is the beginning of sleeping all night always! I'm so proud of my baby girl!
Of course I still wake up multiple times and check to make sure she's breathing. ;)

Our own Four Christmases
We had our own edition of "Four Christmases" this weekend.
Friday we went to my parents for lunch and opened presents then that evening we ate supper at my grandparents house (my dad's parents) and opened gifts there. The little kids are the only ones that get presents, everyone else gets money.
We finally got home around 5:00 and while Lily slept we watched two of the movies I had received.
Yesterday we went to my grandparent's house (my mom's parents) to eat dinner & open presents then we went home and finally opened Lily's presents from Santa.

Lily taking her nap on Christmas before leaving.
The snow had fallen pretty heavily that day/night so we decided to spend the night at my parent's so we didn't have to drive home. Christmas morning we all had breakfast then it was time for us to go to Brandon's Mom and Stepdad's house.
We ate dinner with his parents, brother and sister-in law and 2 nieces then opened presents.
Here's a few pictures I took there. Lily loves watching tv on daddy's lap.

Santa was very good to Lily this year bringing her some clothes, 3 Lamaze toys, a tummy time mat, 2 flower headbands (which I just remembered I left in her stocking, oops), My Pal Violet, and a glow seahorse. Daddy was very nice to Mommy this year bringing me a thirty-one tote I mentioned wanting and a new DSLR!!

3 Months
Lily turned 3 months yesterday. Unfortunately we were home sick with her. :(
Monday night I could tell she was congested and when she woke up yesterday morning she was a lot worse. She didn't seem to feel real sick and she was still all smiles but I didn't want to take any chances of getting the kids at the sitter sick...so I stayed home from work to stay with her. I had to give her saline drops twice and I was using the aspirator all day cleaning her nose out. I gave her tylenol last night and this morning and when she got up today she seemed better. I went ahead and took her to the sitter today and gave her the saline drops and aspirator if she needs to use it. Hopefully our little girl will be good as new by Friday.
I didn't get her usual monthly picture in her chair so I'll do that tonight but I get a couple anyway yesterday. Of course I forgot to bring my camera to work with me so I'll have to upload everything tomorrow.

Our Christmas Card
I finally got around to picking up our Christmas cards at Wal-Mart Wednesday night. They've been done for about a week now, I just never had time to go get them. We never did get good family pictures taken for Christmas so I just decided to put some of the ones I had taken of Lily on it.
DIY Wreath
I have been reading alot of blogs lately and most of them are ladies who have DIY'd alot of their Christmas decor. I went to Salvation Army Wednesday and decided I wanted to hunt down some good stuff that I could "recreate." I ended up finding a wreath that had just a plain red ribbon on it for $1. I immediately snatched it up and took it home to see what I could make out of it.
I replaced the ribbon with one I had gotten at Dollar Tree and put some ornaments on it that I had gotten in a bag full of various colors, also from Salvation Army. My total cost for the wreath was $2.50. Here's the final result...not the best looking wreath but not too bad for my first time. :)
