Anyway on a happier less stressed out note, Nathan and I are really looking forward to the holidays and spending some time with our families. We will be with my family for Christmas Eve. That's always fun, and the food is always retardedly good. Then we will be leaving on early morning Christmas Day to Estevan. We'll be spending that day with my mom's side of the family. Then on the 26th we will be with Nathan's family all day for their Christmas get together. Then we will be coming home on the 27th. It should be a really good, but really hectic couple of days. Honestly, I'll probably get home and sleep for a week. Or atleast that will be how long it's going to take me to catch up on my sleep!
What else have we been up to? Let's see.....Bella is doing fantastic. We are going on over two weeks now with no 'accidents' in the house. I'm a HUGE fan of that accomplishment! Also I am very excited that she now walks over to the door by herself and then whines to go outside. Instead of whining at me, and then when I got up to take her outside, running under the bed and me having to pry her out from under there and carry her outside. That was a pain in the bum let me tell you! Not to mention that she is getting way to heavy to be having to be carried outside! I found myself picturing her full grown and pregnant me trying to haul her out from under the bed and carry her outside, that's about where that whole 'under the bed thing' ended! She's awesome though and I don't know how we did it without her. She is so entertaining, and great company for me when Nathan is gone.
I had another doctor's appointment this week. Baby is doing great and growing at a good rate. I'm finding myself with a rather hearty appetite for everything edible lately. I keep telling Nathan that it is definately his child! haha! Other then that I have been feeling great lately! I'm enjoying all the Christmas food and baking twice as much this year....literally!
The Travelodge had their Christmas party this past weekend. It was really fun. Nathan was home so he came with me. Megan has been working there for the past month so her and Kevin were there. Also my sister Kaitlan works there, so she was there. And her friend Mallory ended up taking my brother Dylan as her date. It was a real family affair! But we all had lots of fun! The food was great, it was nice to eat it fresh and not off the trays brought in from the banquets where you have to hide the fact that you are eating the food! They also had a dance afterwards so us girls had a good time dancing while our men sat on the sidelines! Well Dylan was dancing, he loves to dance. I like to think that he gets it from me! Anyways I will end with some pictures from our evening.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Lots of love,

Black is such a slimming color, its hard to tell from your pictures how big the baby is getting. I couldn't imagine trying to pull the dog from under a bed at 9 months pregnant. Glad to hear that Bella is done with the accidents in the house. I also hope that everything continutes well in your pregnancy..when do you go for an ultrasound?
Merry Christmas Ashley and Nathan. Ashley you look just glowing. Have fun eating all those Christmas goodies....that's the best part of being pregnant over the holidays. Good Job on Bella. You're going to be such a fantastic Mommy!! Post more pics of that growing belly....
