Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and 1st Steps!!!

January 3, 2011

First let me start off by saying I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May this year be everything you want it to be and more! I for one do have a new years resolution. Be more present in my life, make better decisions for my family, and gain more control over finances. Spend less and spend more time enjoying life. There are so many things we can do for free that are fun and my goal is to find those things. Wish me luck!

Now for the exciting news!!! Someone took their first steps last Thursday, December 30th!!! And who is that someone? CLAIRE!!! YAY CLAIRE! This weekend Stephen and I worked with her. Last night she gained control of her balance and off she went. She should have it mastered soon. I am so excited I can hardley stand it! She loves to try and walk, thinks it’s a fun game. She loves the attention. We get over excited and clap for her! ha ha ha! Owen is watching her and you can tell he’s ready to figure it all out. I give him another week and he will start trying to walk.

I am having so much fun being a Mommy! I wonder what kind of people Owen & Claire will turn out to be. I pray that I do my best at all times and they will turn out to be great people! Accomplish everything their hearts desire and become good spouses one
