So we hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We sure did, because my mom came for a visit. Mommy's are so great. She took care of me the whole time because I was throwing my guts up. She played with Sydney and gave her some much needed motherly attention. I hate living so far from family, so it was really nice to have her here for a few days. We ate dinner at Ben and Allison's, and it was really great. We did the usual Johnson trip, and just relaxed the whole weekend. I bawled when she left, and now here we are a week later, and still sick as a dog. Nick has been great through everything. He is mom, dad, chef, and maid. I lay on my couch all day until I have to go to work, then I go sit on a chair and tell girls what to do. Dance has been really hard to go to everyday, but hopefully I won't be sick much longer. We went to the doctor on Thursday and had an ultra-sound. The doctor says everything is looking good and that I am not as far along as originally thought. BUMMER. My new due date is July 12, which means a week after that. Well anyway, enough about me. We went to Santa's Farm last night, and Sydney was terrified of Santa. I told her she could have a candy cane if she sat on Santa's lap, so we got some pictures of her crying and sitting on Santa's lap. Right when she got off she said, "I want candy mommy." It was so cute. Then she told all of our family that she saw santa and that he was, "Really, really scary." That is one of her new favorite phrases. It is so cute how she says really. Anyway, we are going to Utah for Christmas and we are really excited. We are so excited to get caught up with family and friends and spend time in our home towns.

That would be ya'll in Texas. It was a fun visit and trip. Looking forward to seeing you at Christmastime.
I'm sorry you're so sick Laurel! Hopefully soon it will be much better
It sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving. I can't believe how big your little girl is now and that you are going to have another baby that is so exciting. You have such a cute little family.
I am so glad you had family in town for Thanksgiving I bet Sydney was in heaven. You look great for being so sick(the thanksgiving pic) Are you planning on teaching all the way through your pregnancy? Hope you guys have fun out here over the holidays. Where is your family? Maybe we can do lunch or something.
That's so exciting that your mom was able to visit for THanksgiving. It always makes the holidays birghter with your family around... and so nice to have an extra pair of hands helping out when you feel so crummy.
I can't wait to see pictures of Syd and Santa:)
