In case you didn't notice...and apparently many of you didn't because we only received 7 votes...the poll for our daughter's name ended in a tie. So, we decided to let Nate break the tie. He originally chose Jesus which appropriately received 0 votes. (There is and always will be only one Jesus.) But given the choice between Sacagawea and Anna Marie, he chose Sacagawea. So, we decided to pretend like he said Anna Marie. He's too young to remember anyway, right?
This was all for fun. In all seriousness, we have chosen to give our daughter the name Anna Marie. We chose Marie in honor of Melissa's sister, Kristina. Come to find out, Marie is a very popular middle name in both mine and Melissa's family. Also, my cousin Sandy informed me that Anna was my great grandmother's name on my dad's side. Pretty cool.
Now we just need to finish little Anna's nursery. Less than 3 months...Melissa is getting that wild "I've got WAY too much to do!" look in her eyes. You might want to keep your distance till the end of March.
Christmas morning was spent at home with just the 3 of us.
Once we finished opening presents at our house, we headed straight to Mimi and Aunt Nana's where Nate was spoiled some more with an excavator from Mimi and car transporter from Aunt Nana, among many other awesome gifts.
That night, Jake brought Guitar Hero over to our house and spent the night. Nate and Melissa helped out on the drums. Willie and Jake stayed up until 2:30 rocking the house!
Willie's birthday was on the 29th, so the Friday night after Christmas, Melissa and Willie went to dinner at his favorite restaurant, Pappadeaux's courtesy of Mike. Nate stayed the night at Mimi and Aunt Nana's house.
