Christmas Open House & Birthday

The Knutson's annual Christmas Open House was yesterday. I finally had a chance to dress up and got to wear the dress that Sandy bought for me. Jennifer's boots made the perfect touch to the outfit. Baby Knutson was definitely showing (in person). It's hard to tell from the angle of this picture though...

I got to play photographer for the cutest flower girl and ring bearer ever. There were many pics taken, but here's one of my favorites:

The 2 Mom-to-be's: (for only a few more days...) You can totally see both of our baby bumps in this picture:

Today we celebrated my mom's birthday! We left the house around 9:30, got a lot of our remaining Christmas shopping done, then got to Villa Park around 2 to hang out and have some pizza, ice cream, and cake.
There will be a new birthday coming soon... baby Burritt's arrival is expected on Wednesday! We can't wait to meet her!

Morning Routine

I wake up between 5:15 and 5:40 to get ready for the day; am downstairs between 6 and 6:15 to check emails and watch any shows on the DVR that I am behind with. Kids start waking up around 7. The order varies; sometimes Aubry comes downstairs to snuggle for a few minutes before we go get M&G together, or, I have to get her out of bed after M&G are already up and changed. Breakfast begins. We change it up each morning between apple toast, veggie muffins, pop tarts, pancakes, cereal, and yogert. On Mondays and Tuesdays, there is no rush to get cleaned up and ready to leave; Grandma Karen arrives around 8. Other days we scramble to get hands and face washed, shoes on, coats on, toys put away, and to-go bags ready (backpacks and/or ballet bag, and diaper bag). Our goal is to be in the car ready to go by 8:15. The drop off at Grandma Nancy's is followed with dropping off Aubry at preschool at 8:55. And then I am off to work.
