Well, it's a new year. All I can say is it's going to be a good one. I feel it in the air. I have a new perspective to go with this year and I am going to use it well. New Year, come and get me.
My mom and dad babysat and gave the kids a New Years Eve Party so Nate and I had a date at Outback. . . which was excellent until 8pm with everything in the entire city closed down. Good Grief. That left us with nothing to do but return to the kids party. . . which turned out pretty fun. My mom was all set with get ups for the kids and Sparking apple juice to ring in the new year. I swear, that is what my dad is pouring into those cups. HAHAHA. Every time I look at that picture I laugh out loud. It looks like we are trying to raise a new generation of serious party bums.
Anyway, I barely made it to midnight. . . but most the kids were still awake. They were all so cute. The next day we hit the Jr. High for some sledding. I just took pictures. What a bore I am sometimes.
So, this new year is bringing big things to our house. We have a new baby coming July 31st. I still don't know how to feel about it. Emily just barely got out of diapers. Part of me is mourning things I could have done and the other part of me is sure that this baby belongs in our family. Many things are not perfect for this event. . . but the important things are in place. So, come on down little one. We will give you plenty of love if nothing else.

YAAAAAY! I know what you mean--sometimes I still don't know how I feel about our impending doom, but babies are such a blessing at the same time. I'm excited for you!
Those new year pictures are PRICELESS. What happy memories for your kids.
Congrats! That is awesome. Both about the baby and the new outlook on life.
Congrats!! I'm so excited for you guys. Babies are always a blessing! I'm so glad that you had a fun New Years!
Congratulations! I know how ya feel. But we all know they get here and it is just supposed to be. (even though it is still NOT CUTE waking up every night at almost 5 months!) LOL!
You da woman! And, um, you are definitely NOT boring. Your mom and dad are so cool to throw that party for the kids. Bambino/a numero quattro is going to be one lucky kiddo to be coming to your fam. Doors will open up as time goes. Missing you!
