It's a new year, but first, I have to catch you up on the old!

Happy New Year! Barry and I celebrated our 6th anniversary this New Year's Eve (the actual day is 12/28). We had a good time. We went out to dinner...Mexican, our favorite! Then, we went shopping...my favorite! Finally, we headed back to our luxurious suite... and we were asleep by 11:30! Sheesh!

Does anyone make New Year's Resolutions? I really don't. I did make a goal to start waking up at 5 or 5:30 to work out, have quiet time, and Bible study.
I start back to work tomorrow. There should be some big changes. I'm anxious to see what is in store for the remainder of the school year.

Jackson is doing well. He turned 2 on the 22nd. He was in the hospital on his birthday! The hospital was awesome, though. They brought him a balloon, Baseball Bear from Build-A-Bear, and a 40 piece Mr. Potato Head. He is cracking us up with his attitude! He refuses to share. I'm to blame on this one. He is always talking! He loves to cuddle! He is quite the ham! At the daycare Christmas program, he showed us he's got moves! Honestly, I didn't even think he'd make it up on stage.
He is ready to be potty trained, however, I'm not ready to potty train him. The reason is this...he is not ready to be out of his crib. Does that make sense? I am not going to potty train him until he is in a big boy bed. We have tried putting him to bed in Tanner's bed, and he just wants to play. This summer, we're getting a double bed for them to share, so that is when I plan on the training.

Tanner turned 4 on the 20th! I can not believe my first born is 4! He is so smart! He is very literal. He still loves Star Wars. He now owns 4 light sabers, 3 costumes, and numerous action figures. He would watch Star Wars: Clone Wars every day if we let him. He loves to give hugs. He will hug anyone. He is very loving! He has 2 girlfriends and another he plans to marry. So cute! He loves going to Sunday school and preschool. Really anything with the word school in it!
