HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well, we obviously didn't make the new year deadline. My dad still jokes that they had me home for only 9 hours and got to take the deduction on their taxes for that year. Oh well... Not so lucky for us! We had a pretty quiet new years until about 10. We ran a bunch of errands and did a lot of walking during the day. I took a nap at 6 and then we headed next door for a little shin-dig. It was a riot! Liz and Steve have a full blown karaoke set up in their living room and all their parties are filled with a ton of drinking and singing. It's a blast to be a part of! We set off a few fireworks at midnight and then headed back home. Of course I wasn't going to bed any time soon so Jeromy and I watched The Bucket List. If you haven't seen it get it today! You will love it!! And if you're a crier like me, be sure to grab a box of tissues!
Tonight I'm going to see The Color Purple with a group of great ladies. We get the Broadway series tickets every year for shows at the Keller. I thought I wasn't going to go thinking I'd either be in the hospital or caring for our little girl. But, I need to just get out and do things and when she comes, she comes. I have my dad and step-mom just a few miles away for downtown so if I need a ride to Emanuel they will come get me. Plan is already in place!
Anywho... So I finally got around to taking pictures of Miss Libby's room! I'm so proud of it. And Madeline made some custom artwork to help decorate it. (Probably my favorite part of the room.)
Here it is:

The nursery looks great! I love the art work by miss Madeline. We were looking at your photos the other day and I asked Gunnar if he remembered Maddie, and he said her name and nodded! He misses you guys just as much as we do. Take care and good luck!
