Goodbye 2009
Tomorrow is the last year of 2009, it seems like yesterday that everyone was worried about Y2K and in a matter of a few hours it will be 2010. 2009 was a pretty eventful and exciting year for us...the biggest thing was of course the arrival of Phoenix in July!
Veronika started 2nd Grade in August. She does terrific in school, she is a very advanced reader and does well in all of her subjects. She is getting guitar lessons from Aunt Amanda and got an acoustic and electric guitar for Christmas. She is a great dancer also and wants to get back into dance next year which I think is wonderful. Her dream right now is to be famous...she is considering acting, dancing, or being a rock 'n' roll star! She is a fantastic big sister, she WILLINGLY changes diapers, helps Violet get dressed, pretty much anything. Violet adores her and copies everything she does.
Violet is 20 months old...it is hard to believe that my baby girl will be 2 years old in a few short months! She is our little ham and mockingbird. She is VERY affectionate but also aggressive. She goes to bed each night with her "papi" (pacifier), two blankets, and baby; she also needs her lullaby CD and light show...but she sleeps for about 12 hours each night and takes a 2 hour nap! She is definitely like her momma in that regard! She loves to do art projects, mostly stickers and coloring.
Phoenix is 5 months old and is such a sweet baby boy! He loves his sisters and cracks up anytime they play with him. He is a pretty good sleeper, he wakes up 1 or 2 times a night and takes 2 or 3 naps. He is really trying to sit up and loves to blow raspberries and pull his sisters' and mommy's hair! He is the spitting image of his daddy; we all think that he should have been named Steve Jr.
Steve and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary in November; so in 2006 I became a step-mommy to Veronika, in August 2007 we found out we were expecting Violet and she was born in April 2008. In November 2008 we found out we were expecting again and we welcomed Phoenix in 2009! SO, I am praying for 2010 to be a quiet year, we are not planning on any big changes in our lives but who knows what God's plan for this year is! I want to sit back, relax, and watch my babies grow. I want to be a better wife and mother; I want to speak softer, kinder words to Steve and our children. I want to enjoy this life that God has blessed me with...it is everything I ever prayed for and so much more!
