Sheats Family Christmas

The Sheats family got together to celebrate Christmas on Sunday. Here are a few highlights from the day.Grandad reading the Christmas story from Luke 2.
Caleb built this birdhouse and was so proud that he brought it along to show us all. He showed us all how the birds get inside and explained that they are going to live there! Dad received a farside comic book from Linda. I think he enjoyed it.
Mom and Dad gave Aliza a kitchen of her own and Laura and Linda stocked her up on food for it. It took a team effort by Jeff and Jeremy to put it together while Aliza excitedly waited. She declared that it was going in her bedroom and that she would play all night! I wonder if anyone in her household slept last night!

My little bean gave me a gift that I had been eager for. It kicked hard enough that I felt it! It is so exciting to be able to feel my baby. We had a sonogram on Friday, pictures will be coming as soon as I get them scanned. We could see all the little fingers and toes. Bean was waving and kicking. When we wanted to see the gender though our baby just yawned and curled up into a little ball. We had the technician write down her guess for us (85% sure) and we will open it at Christmas.
