It was really nice to go home for Thanksgiving. I hadn't been home since last New Year's. It was nice seeing my family and some extended family. We do two Thanksgiving dinners each year. My dad's family came over for lunch and my mom cooked an excellent Thanksgiving lunch. Then for dinner we went over to my grandma Haug's house for dinner. Tom and I both tried to not over eat at either dinner :). On Friday, Tom and I went shopping with my mom and bought baby Emma all kinds of clothes. I swear she has more clothes than Tom and myself, haha. On Saturday, my grandpa Gatlin was taken to the ER because he was having seizures. It was a scary day, but they are running tests and hopefully will figure out what is wrong with him. Overall, we had a fantastic visit and I really enjoyed the time with my family.
Here are some belly shots...I will be 25 weeks tomorrow. In my weekly email, it said that she grew 1/2 a pound last week, which is a lot because for the first 24 weeks she was only ONE pound total. She is really starting to move a lot, which is so exciting! I feel her every couple of hours and especially when I am trying to go to bed at night.

Every year my mom buys us personalized Christmas ornaments. I love them! It's so fun every year to go back through them and remember those special moments in our life. I can't wait to decorate for Christmas--probably next weekend! (I'll post pictures). I just wanted to share our newest ornament that my mom got us...it's so cute![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiKyiCBu3A0WpdA122IUVaCcOW0S97K4R9XhNZI7f3Agtu1Ydy60iELtWlT24Taiq5QhmDBJvF-7_wCZX3cIA44U_jVmA86FlEkLGyIVLdpiEwzjyxH-weeh5b8n_ZzT-g6Q8uPP9ldAA/s200/25+weeks+005.jpg)
