New Years....


Look mommy what I got!!! (while Mommy was trying to get food ready for New Years!)


Yummy..... there are good... why do you want to take them away from me???

We keep New Years low key this year... Truthfully the thought of being hung over the next morning is enough to steer me AWAY from any consumption of cocktails AT all! So we had Auntie H over, ate, played card games, watched Jillian fall asleep in her Bumbo while we were playing those card games, then we played Scene It and got ours behinds kicked my darling husband.....The really funny thing is that we have two cats... you wouldn't know it, but we do. Gunther runs from Leo, so when there are others in the house, we don't see him or Suzie... but Auntie H brought over Frankie the pug (he is cute as cute can be!) whom is one of the best dogs I have seen when they are in other peoples houses... So I was thinking that this was going to be a disaster... but would you believe it that Suzie and Gunther were out the whole time, checking Frankie out, sniffing and there were NO claws thrown, hissing wasn't heard or growling... on either end... It was so odd... Gotta love cats...

Welcome 2009... should be an interesting year, can't wait to see what it brings.....

Jillian's 1st Christmas....


Grandmema and Mommy playing with Jillian!

Yummy Paper!!



Christmas was an adventure for our family (as sure it was for many of those that live in the Seattle area!) I was really excitied to wake up to it snowing on Christmas Day (but then I was so over it!.)

Jillian didn't know what to think of all the presents that she got (and was very thankful for) she finally at Great Grandmema's house starting eating the wrapping paper! I think that it will be alot more fun next year and then the years to come!

All in all, we were very fortunate to spend time with family and friends, eat good food (too much), have some laughs and get some good pictures so that Mommy can scrappbook them (someday!)
