Don't get me wrong, I love everything about Christmas. I love church during December because it is more meaningful, I love the treats, the snow, the parties, Christmas music and decorations.... Unfortunately, I'm one of those people that typically gets a little caught up in the chaos of shopping for gifts, including my own. I usually pick up a few presents for Bret to give me, in addition to the ones he picks out himself. This year, things are a little different. Clothes of all kinds usually top my wish list, but at this point in the pregnancy, there is no use buying maternity or regular clothes. Since a Santa wish list can be as impractical as I can dream it, all I really want is a real good tan. Of course, this is inspired by one of my favorite Christmas songs, but to me it is a good wish for several reasons. First, there is no chance of me traveling, much less getting into a swimming suit. Second, I'm fairly fair skinned, and third, I have sun allergies that prevent me from spending too much time laying out anyways. So until Santa comes and grants my wish, I'll just look back at some pre-pregnancy pics and dream about spending Christmas at the beach with some coconut tanning oil and a book.

i am with ya.. i love the holidays and the feeling of christmas.. life is different around this time of year.. HOWEVER, i would love to be at the beach enjoying a wonderful tan!! i guess i will dream like you do!! Merry Christmas!!
Mmmmmmm....even more than the actual tan itself, the sensation of beating rays on my body would do. As a pregnant lady you have to get pretty creative with your wish list if you're a clothing whore like us. I used to tell Chris he could get me anything for my appendages...i.e.-jewelry, shoes, pedicures, etc...anything that didn't require a SIZE!
