Christmas was amazing. Jax is definitely at the perfect age where he gets excited about presents and Santa. He did a great job passing out presents at my parents house Christmas Eve. As for Christmas, we spent the day with Mike's family and it was very nice and relaxing... which I needed, being 38 weeks pregnant. It was adorable watching Jax and his cousin, Asher, play together. At one point, Jax took his new remote control monster truck outside and drove it around while Asher chased it. Those two are going to be the best of friends growing up. I had some contractions but nothing that made me feel like Hensley was going to arrive.
Saturday we drove down to the train station ( an hour away) where we took the coaster to Old Town (another hour) for Asher's birthday. We spent the day walking around and didn't head back to the train till 7:15. I was having contractions that were 20 min apart once I got on the train. The train took and hour and then we had another hour drive till we were home. Once we got home and my contractions started getting closer so I called my mom up just in case. Smart decision on my part because my water broke at 12:30am Dec 27 and we ended up having Hensley at 3:29am. I guess walking around all day and eating Mexican food helped get this little girl out.
Oh my goodness, she is the cutest!! Congrats momma!!
