Tis the Season...


We had a fun weekend. On December 6th, we have been married for 5 years! Wow...seems like a long time. We went to Chili's for lunch, Dairy Queen for dinner and rented a couple movies. We also went and got a real Christmas tree. This will be the first year that we haven't had an artificial one. We were only able to put lights on it so far...but we will finish decorating it soon. I think we need more lights first. Not only did we start setting up for Christmas...it snowed on Monday and really made us feel like Christmas was coming. This year is really different, I don't really want anything under the tree. We are just so excited about having our baby girl that everything else seems less important. I wonder how Mary felt when she knew she was giving birth to the Savior? This year seems very special and I cannot wait to meet our little girl. I am so anxious and happy!

We got our tree at Home Depot! There weren't a lot of places and I didn't want to hike the forest for one.
Can't wait to see you Joi! Yipee!

January 5th, 2009!

Cheryl Love Christopherson was born on 01-05-09, weighing 6 pounds 11 ounces, and 18 inches long. Happy Birthday, we love you! We went to the hospital at 2a.m. Monday morning to be induced for labor, they gave me Patocin to get it going...I was already dilated to 3 centimeters at that time. At around 11 or so I received the wonderful Epidural, Yeah! I still was not progressing, and next thing we knew Cheryl was not handling the contractions very well. They had to turn the Patocin off and turned the Epidural off...because I couldn't feel my legs at all. The doctor said if we don't progress and the contractions keep bugging the baby then we would have to do a C-section. Great! I thought...get this over with already....I don't care how! Well, I didn't have to have a C-section after all and by 5 p.m. I was finally in full dilation. Witch meant...Time to push, I pushed for 2 hours and there she was, a beautiful little girl at 7:18 p.m. What a long day, to say the least! Ther...

When will she arrive?

My doctor has said that my due date is between January 5th to the 10th! I would like to know what everyone thinks when I will have this baby. Take a guess and whoever is the closest then we will name Cheryl's teddy bear after you! We are definitely ready now! We have a cradle, made by my Dad and also a great car seat and stroller finally. I think we were supposed to get that first, but oh well. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Campbell. Cheryl can now come home from the hospital and sleep in the cradle. XOXO-Erin

Our Baby Girl's Room

The Baby room is getting more attention now. I have decorated the walls and put new bedding in the crib. I thought about painting the walls but I think it looks better with the original cream color. I really didn't want to much going on in there. She is one lucky girl to have all this attention to her room. If you didn't notice from the pictures we have decided to name her Cheryl Love Christopherson. She is named after her Grandma Christopherson that has passed away from breast cancer. She was a amazing woman and so little Cheryl has some big shoes to fill. My next project is to make some cute little dresses for her. We can't wait for her arrival. XOXO-Erin
