We hope everyone had a wonderful New Year! We quietly rang in the New Year at home. Here is a picture of Alexander,

2009 Here I Come...

So far this year Eric and I have worked...what is new? My resolution this year is to be healthier and happier. This does not mean "how much weight am I going to lose, etc" More like, "Let's watch what we eat" Since we are making Alexander's baby food it will be easier to make healthy choices because we will grind up what we are eating to feed him and we surely aren't going to grind up cheeseburgers and french fries for our little man!

I am also going to concentrate on "not sweating the small stuff" If Alexander has shown us anything, he has shown us that time flies by too fast to fuss about stupid stuff and not enjoy every minute to it's fullest!! I have a few "get aways" planned in my head, with and without Alexander, so hopefully if all pans out--we should all get some much needed family time!

As for being healthier....we are not starting off on a very good foot. Alexander just went to the doctor today to find out he has a double ear infection. We just finished antibiotics not too long ago and here is round 2! I believes tubes in his ears are in his future, as much as his Daddy doesn't like the idea! And I myself, am getting over a horrible stomach bug.

Alexander loves playing more and more now. He is such a busy body! Not wanting to sit still for long periods of time at all. The days of just sitting and cuddling with my little man are going to the wayside, quickly! Here he is sitting in his playpen playing with many of the toys he got for Christmas!

More later~
