Happy New Year!

Since I didn't get a chance to review the past year in December, I'll take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year and reflect on the last 365 days of 2011. I have had the most challenging and rewarding year of my life, and I am looking forward to what the new year will bring to my little family.

This past year...

I was pregnant with our little ninja :)

 

ultrasound 2/23 -- 30 weeks, 6 days

34 weeks pregnant

and preparing for the arrival of our little one

prepping the nursery

celebrating with wonderful family & friends at the baby shower

Then our little ninja came into this world as Baby E....

my precious Baby E --- so perfect

We grew from a family of 2 to a family of 3

 

can't keep my eyes off of him

father & son bonding

and boy was taking care of a newborn a challenge

 

H giving our tiny baby a bath

feeding Baby E

and a great adventure

 

going for a walk around the neighborhood with Baby E in the ergo - his very 1st garage sale

our first official outing at Newark Nite

ready for his first driving experience

Baby E eagerly awaiting an adventurous car ride



our first family beach trip

each day is a new day filled with laughter and joy

 

having the best time in his jumperoo

 

so happy to be spending time with us

being such a ham -- love him!

and he is growing at an alarming rate right before our eyes

 

filling out his car seat...

and looking like a cute little buddha 

chewing and eating solid foods

and even beginning to crawl like a pro

he loves to walk/run around and show off his two bottom teeth

and he absolutely loves to pull himself up

Yup this past year has been simply the best, and I know that 2012 will be even better. There will be new adventures awaiting us, and I can already tell that we will have a blast.  :)
