This is the first day of the new year. It is also the first entry in my blog. I hope I can maintain this throughout the year. I have never been a great writer, but I hope with some practice I can improve. Being a better writer would be a great new year's resoloution!
Today the Baby is three months old. It is New Year's Day and only nine months left of my maternity leave. I can't believe how big the Baby has gotten over the last three months. Sadly I want him to grow and become a little boy, and also I want him to remain my baby since I know this is my last baby. Over the first 3 months of his life, the Baby has learned to smile (November 1, 2011), coo (December 12, 2011) and laugh (a real belly laugh, December 28, 2011).
Before the Christmas break the Boy (7 years old) received an award at school for best demonstrating the virtue of hope. That is a great accomplishment for the Boy because he had a hard time adjusting to his new school.
The Girl(5 years old) is my "mini me" in just about every way. I have been told that she looks like me...LOL. She is also my little helper, she really helps me around the house, with baby stuff, laundry and cleaning. She is also really good at letting me nap with the Baby in the morning if I had a rough night. I can't wait to see what 2012 has in store for my family. This year I am going to challenge myself to take a photo every day of Baby, so that at the end of the year I can look back at how he has changed. Since I have three kids, I will also post photos of them, don't know if I'll get one every day of them though!!
1. This is SUCH a great idea Steph!! You have so many great insights and experiences to share with your friends and family. Time flies entirely too quickly and this is a cool way to record those little, precious moments (coos and belly laughs - adorable!) that otherwise wouldn't be recorded.
ReplyDelete2. You are a WONDERFUL writer!!!
