You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.


As 2008 draws to a close I think about what an amazing year this has been for our family. Starting way back in January, when we found out we were expecting - which wasn't a huge surprise, but exciting none the less! So following that, obviously for me that next nine months just dragged by. I spent the first three being best friends with the toilet, the next three trying to guess what was in there and find clothes that fit, and the last three walking all over town trying to get him to come out. And somewhere in the middle of that Justin and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary, and our four year anniversary of when we started dating! And then....the moment we had all waited for, three days after my birthday, on September 20, we welcomed our son into the world after a wonderful 17 hour labor :) After that, in stark contrast to first nine months of the year, these last three have just flown by. Already Wyatt has hit so many milestones and has turned our world completely upside down, but in a very good way. This coming year has a lot in store for us, our son is going to be a coast to coast traveler before he is a year old! We look forward to seeing what each new day will bring and can only hope that 2009 will slow down just a little so that we can soak it all in. Here's wishing you and yours a Happy New Year.
