Happy 2009!

Wow! We are already into 2009 and I can't say I have any complaints so far! :) School has started back and overall it was a fairly pleasant week as school week go. Next week is a five day week and the week after that includes the MLK holiday, which means it will be another four day week - fabulous!! :)

Jack has finally started talking! He is coming up with all kinds of words including; mama, dada, nana, bath, bubble, dog, ball, diet coke, elmo, more, please and of course his animal noises. He makes noises for all kinds of animals from a sheep to an elephant to a dog - he is WAY too cute!

He can also show you his body parts from his hair to his hiney. My favorite one is his nose...when you ask him where he nose is he says, "no," (short for nose) and points his finger up his nostril, basically picking his nose. Well of course mommy, daddy and nana have all laughed at this so that just encouraged a habit! He thinks it's hilarious!

We, or maybe I should say Jason, are finally taking down the Christmas decorations. I just hate doing that and I don't know why. It's hard letting go of the holiday season, but at the same time it's a bit depressing to continue to look at my garland and bows when I know we aren't celebrating anymore. You'd think I would just suck it up and put it all away...but oh well!

My new addiction is the Sudoku on Jason's itouch. I put on the twilight soundtrack and just play forever....or as long as I can get him to lend it to me, which isn't always very long! :)

I hope your new year has begun as simply and uneventfully as mine, because I am assuming that's a good omen for the entire year! Happy 2009!!
