Happy New Year

Happy New Year! My, what a year it has been. I cannot believe that just a short year ago, it was just the two of us with a baby in my belly. This past year has gone by so fast. I cannot believe that our little baby is already 9 1/2 months old and crawling all over the place, talking, laughing, giving kisses, and loving up her mommy and daddy. We are truly the most blessed parents to have such a loving and beautiful little girl. Daddy and I were talking the other day about how our lives have changed so much in the past year, but that we wouldn't have it any other way. We cannot remember how life was before Aubrey....what did we do with all of our "free" time? I can tell you, our house was probably a bit picked up more each day! :)

We had plans to have people over for a few hours on New Year's Eve so that we could have the kiddos play together and us adults could have some time to chat and catch up with each other. Well the day came and two of our couple friends were not feeling well and then to top it off, I started feeling really achy as well. We decided to cancel our NYE celebration so that we could all rest up and get over the sicknesses that were going around. We invited Grandma and Papa Cave down to our house to hang out with us since we had all the food and drinks ready to go. It was so much fun having them there! Aubrey stayed up until 9:00 (quite an achievement for her)! After she went to bed, we played cards for a bit, then I had to head to bed as well because I started not feeling well. I didn't make it to midnight, but it was close....11:30. Daddy did come up and give me a kiss at midnight, but then it was lights out for mommy. Grandma and Papa stayed for a bit today, long enough for me to get a little nap in and for them to play awhile with Aubrey. I have a feeling I might be coming down with what Aubrey had, but we shall see. Tomorrow starts another 3 day work week and a 2 day daycare week for Aubrey. She is starting to feel better, but the darn cold is still hanging on.
