My mom came into town the week before Christmas and hung out with us! Niko LOVED having her here and missed her so much when she left.
Johnny graduated from Idaho State with his Bachelors in Business and we're so excited. Now he's doing the job search thing. And we wait. And wait. And wait.
We found out we're having a BOY! Wow was my "mother's intuition" wrong! I was so surprised to see the ultrasound point out it was a boy, but that made the day really exciting! We wanted to let our mothers find out the gender in a creative way, so we went out to lunch that day and the waitress randomly brought out bright blue ice pops to us while we were waiting for our meal (prearranged of course). My mom and Johnny's mom were so confused at first, just smiling at the waitress, and then it clicked for them "Oh they're having a boy!!". Very memorable moment!
Christmas was wonderful too. Niko was excited waking up to gifts under the tree. However, he did not want to leave treats for Santa the night before, he started crying because he didn't get treats but Santa did :). We ended up giving the chocolates to Niko instead. He is constantly playing with all the gifts he got for Christmas, which is both a good thing and a bad one!
New Years was great and low key. We spent it with the Greens and played lots of fun games!
And now it's 2012 with a trip to Hawaii and a baby coming in the next few months we have quite a bit to look forward to, and hopefully a ton more coming our way!
