I can't believe it's the last month of the year! I couldn't help think to myself, "have I done everything I wanted to do?!...will I have enough time to do whatever I'm freaking out about before Christmas?!" I start to sweat and turn to my husband. With an eye sightly open, he looks at me and says, "don't worry baby, just sleep." ~god he knows me too well.
Tossing and turning I decide to do Alan a favor and get out of bed.
Creeping out of the room I think, "What the hell am I freaking for?!"...I stop and look around our little abode. I peek back into my room, husband sprawled out, baby asleep. I go to Yasmine's room, turn off her night light and then put the kettle on.
With a tea in hand in a darken room I realize, everything I need and wanted are in this place we've made home. Instantly my anxiousness turns to abundant gratitude.
God has blessed me...so stop freaking yourself out you spaz!!

I decide to take pictures (yes in the middle of the night...I'm awake now!) of some Christmas decorations and a homemade advent calendar we've put up a few weeks ago. Alan found the perfect "skinniest" tree to fit in a corner and I found the cutest nativity set to put on our shelf. I just love christmas and all the nostalgia that comes with it.
Mental note: ask Alan to make Christmas playlist on ipod.

Today is the 1st day of December =) To make December and the days leading up to Christmas much more memorable, I have made an Advent Calendar with an activity for each day for the family to enjoy and do.
Tonight is ~Breakfast for Dinner, in our PJ's!!!
*Let the December festivities begin*
