Merry Christmas! (a little late...)

Well, I'd say the Tomasson's had a pretty good Christmas this year! First, on Christmas Eve, we had an interactive Christmas with David's family in England, thanks to Skype. It was really fun watching everyone thousands of miles away open their gifts. It was great to see everyone! That night, we made our way over to David's mom's house for dinner. As always, she outdid herself again! She's a great cook, and we look forward to her Christmas dinner all year long. After getting more comfortable, we gathered around the tree and exchanged gifts. Everyone made a killing this year. Thanks for all of our goodies! Christmas day came and we went to my grandmother's house for a late lunch. Again, we ate like kings! All in all, we had a great holiday, and we're looking forward even more to next year, when our little one is here to celebrate with!
























Even Bert made a haul during his first Christmas. He sure did enjoy these massive bones!

Our Baby's First Pictures

We had our first real doctor's appointment this afternoon, and we got a peek at our little one. He or she is about 3/4 inch long crown to rump, and resembles a gummie bear. It was a beautiful site and we even got to hear a very strong heartbeat! It was kind of dark in the room, but I think David was tearing up a little...And of course I was too.

It's amazing how something so tiny can wreak so much havoc! I'm still fighting morning sickness, and the doctor wasn't very encouraging when she said that I'll probably have another week of even worse sickness before it slowly started subsiding. After seeing what we saw today, though, I know it's so worth it!
