Christmas 2011!




































Christmas this year was very interesting. On the 22nd I had surgery on my nose, and that is why I am not in any picture. All I could do was sit on the couch and take pictures...and I could hardly see so the pictures aren't that great. I thought that just my Mom was coming out to help watch the girls while I was out of it, but she didn't come alone. Surprise, surprise, my Dad, Cameron my brother, his wife Vivian and my nephew Derek (that I had never met), showed up at the door and said they were staying for Christmas. That was the best Christmas gift I could ever have. Now that surgery wasn't that bad....because I had family out. Although, I was out of it and still can't remember half of what happened, it was so good to have them out. Thank you, Thank you for coming and that you were able to. To the rest of my family who couldn't come, I miss you and can't wait to see you too. Christmas Eve we read the birth of Christ in Luke 2 and sang lots of Christmas songs, while Cheryl did a great job of leading the music. Then Santa came. Christmas day was so fun, we woke up and I started taking a video first while the girls were walking down the stairs. So, I will put that video on here soon. I sat on the couch as the girls and Nathan opened all the presents. They were so cute, and they loved everything they got. Thanks for all the gifts.  I am not really sure what we did that day, other than play with the presents. A couple days later we got more gifts from Aunt Angela and cousin Jacob, the girls love the fun blankets. All in all Christmas was pretty great. Thanks all who made it special.

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
