2014

I know I say this every year but I truly cannot believe another year has come and gone.  I was just looking back at pictures of the kids and it is amazing how much each one of them has changed in such a short time frame.  They are both growing by leaps and bounds and their little brains are soaking up so much information each day.  2014 was a good year to us filled with lots of fun and a few challenges.  We were so lucky to travel a handful of times with the kids, I went back to work part time and we were blessed with a fabulous sitter, we have stayed healthy, Eric's job has been steady, and we enjoy the day to day as a family.  

Looking towards 2015, we will be extremely lucky to have a year like last year.  I hope we can continue to fill our days and months with fun, family, and friends.  I hope to slow down and remember to not to "sweat the small stuff."  The kids are growing up so fast I hope to sit down with them more to play and talk because I know they won't be babies forever.  I really want to cherish this time with them.  

It's always exciting to get a fresh start each January and remind yourself what is important and take a look back at the good and the bad of the previous year.  I have to say I have no (major) complaints and I am thankful for that!!!  Cheers to a new year!

The kids did NOT want to cooperate for my NYE photo shoot…here's what I ended up with:

 Quinn has turned into a clingy almost 2 year old and wants to carry her "lambies" and pacifier around with her all day.  Don't worry, she doesn't drag them all over town, I put my foot down there, but I am picking my battles and usually give in at home after an hour or so.
