This new year will be a good one - I just have a hunch!!! It's a feeling in my gutt - it HAS to be a good year. Have you made your New Year's Resolution yet??? Well, I have - to be more patient with my kids. That means to take the time to PLAY with them each day. So yes, that means my house will not be as clean as I like it and non-essential tasks will most likely not get done during the day BUT I will have fun with my kids & they will know that I am here for them. I am so very fortunate to stay home with them each day and I do not want to take it for granted any more. As we are researching & applying to Pre-K programs that are 5 days a week (what??? you mean I have to give up my baby for 5 mornings a week???), I realize that time flies by and I want to cherish each & every moment I have with Jack & Reagan. So when I just can't take their sassy attitudes and whining anymore, I will promise to take a deep breath and smile! Because I am the lucky one...
Cheers to 2009! Hope you all had a wonderful celebration...if it was spent with friends, family, or alone tucked in your cozy homes...here's to a happy, healthy NEW YEAR!
In the midst of a New England snow storm, we made the trek to our friends house for a fun family night! We were home by 9:30pm and all sound asleep by 10:30pm but as you can see from the pictures - we had a blast! A HUGE thank you to Uncle David for sending a special box full of New Years goodies...party hats, noise makers, leis, etc!
The kids just discovered the box of New Years Eve goodies!
