Owen must have been tired this morning.  

He fell asleep in his high chair while eating breakfast.... something he has NEVER done before.

But he looks soooo cute.

He's still sleeping out there.  I don't have the heart to wake him up.

2009

I cannot believe it's already the seventh of January!!  I have let so many days pass in this new year without an update and for that I am truly sorry.  Life has been busy... we've had a lot on our plates in recent weeks.  

And now....... 

Its just over.

No more holiday planning or rushing around.  It came and went just like it does every other year, but there was something about the speed involved in this one.  It was different.  

So here's a quick recap.... 

We spent Christmas Eve at my mom's house and there were so many presents for the children that neither one of them was interested in opening a single present on the actual morning of Christmas.  JJ and I ended up returning several presents we bought for Owen that were left unopened..  We spent the entire day in our pajamas and ate leftover ham sandwiches and chex mix.  It was pretty great.

New Year's eve was spent with friends at a small house party.  It was fun, but impossible to find a cab home.  I think we ended up waiting for almost two hours before JJ decided to borrow a car and drive us home.  We made it home safely.

Owen had his first slumber party with Gram and I think they had a really good time.  They watched movies and went for walks.  Since she lives so close, I'm thinking we should definitely do that more often.  We'll see.....

JJ's brother has been here the past few days and its been fun to spend some time with him.  We went to the zoo this week (thanks for the membership Nana!) and he took Owen to the children's museum today while I was at work.  But, sadly, he's leaving tomorrow.  I'm not quite sure what I'm going to say when Owen wakes up in the morning calling his name.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy new year!!  Can't wait for all the exciting times in '09!!
