What a year it was! Let's recap:
January: Finally decided to tell everyone I was pregnant even though I found it out on my birthday!
March: Found out we were having a baby boy! Jonathan Jr, how exciting and fun! I was sooo thrilled to find that out! A baby brother for my little angel.
April: Toddler bed success!!! Erika was officially a big girl then!
June: My worst month of the year! I was on bed rest for 5 weeks! Closing at the house fell through. BUMMER! (Thanks to the Brunning family for rescuing us and offering their beauiful home)
On top of everything that was going on, I almost forgot to mention that Jon went back to school. Imagine that!
July: I had my baby boy Nathan Christopher on July 3rd. He was a whopping 9 lbs and 3oz. Though he had to stay in the NICU for a few days, he was able to get home on the 8th and the same day we were able to close in our new house. Of course Grandma Chris was there to help! And Erika is now officially a BIG SIS!
September: Jon turned double three (33)! YIKES! He definately does not look his age:) My little sister Hannah turned 8 and was baptized. I miss her soo much!
October: Halloween! Erika was Tinkerbell and Nathan could've been Jabba the Hut with all his chubs.
November: Big month! Erika turned two and I turned 24! Erika had a small party at home with her cousins and some of her friends. We had pizza and cake and ice cream. Yum! We all went to DC for my birthday. Had lunch at Hard Rock, drove home and watched a movie. Fun birthday! And oh, our Christmas decors are up ;)
December: Christmas! We had a relaxing one this year. Went to PA the next day. Had a great time at Great Wolf lodge with our friends from back home. Celebrated new year by cleaning the house and painting the kitchen and bathroom.
*sigh* What a year! We had our downs but despite that we had so many blessings that would take forever to count. Our trials made our family stronger and helped us become better individuals and parents. We are ready for yah 2009, I say, bring it on...
