Well Santa is loading up his sleigh ready to embark on his world tour and the boys couldn't be more excited. My cousin gave Ryan a Thomas the Tank Christmas book last night and he decided that 1am would be a great time to get up and read it and play with his trains...I think we will keep Christmas eve low key to ensure we all get a good nights sleep!! He is still hyper this morning and was about to go and wake Liam up to play...
With 2010 fast approaching I thought I would reflect on 2009.
January was an exciting time for us as we could finally share the news we were expecting baby number two. It would also be our last summer living near the beach.
February was a very emotional month, the decision for Lou to take the CAT redundancy and for us to up and move states didn't come easy. The absolute best part about moving to the US and Tassie were the friends we made, and although we are all very busy with our own hectic lives it's great to keep in touch every now and then, and to think of each other with fond memories.
March was another emotional month (hey, I was pregnant) Lou's mum was diagnosed with bowel cancer and has recovered well, and we were living in limbo waiting for our house to be vacant.
April arrived, we FINALLY moved in and Lou started a new job...big changes. He also started the never ending job of house renovations.
In May we celebrated Ryan's 3rd birthday, where has that time gone. We continued to unpack boxes.
June was the highlight of the year, baby Liam arrived safe and sound and is growing up so fast, 6 months old next week and crawling already. He is an active, happy little boy.
July, August, September all a bit of a blur...Having fun with our gorgeous boys and getting over winter bugs.
October and November. Lou is working on the front fence and the weather has gone from wet and cold to heatwaves, poor Sophie dog is malting one minute, freezing the next.
December is here and I have finished all my shopping. Need to wrap a couple of things and then get organised as we are going to my sisters on Christmas day, then down to visit Naomi, Jim and the boys.
It has been a wonderful year catching up with friends, looking forward to doing it all again next year. I hope you all have a fabulous chrissy and new year. To my UK and US friends, I hope the snow and BA strike don't throw your travel plans into chaos...
