Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of my family & friends! I spent my NYE at home with my boys, and truly couldn't have pictured it any other way. I tend to not go out on big holidays such as this as I've seen many innocent lives affected by drunk drivers or careless drivers (being a trauma operating room nurse). OK, perhaps with my family along the beach of The Bahama's (where Adam & I got married) would have been nice.

We decided to get take out from a local mexican restaurant (Macayo's) that has special meaning to Adam & I. 9 years ago yesterday I flew into Tucson to visit Adam, that night we went to Macayo's. We've made it a yearly tradition and have yet to break it! While Michael was a bit fussy last night we decided not to take him to the restaurant. Instead he was asleep in his warm little crib by 7:30. Not only does NYE signify our anniversary, it also marks the day that Adam proposed. It's a day that I will never forget!

While ending 2013, I took some time to reflect on our amazingly busy & very productive year. We were blessed to meet our tummy mommy & welcomed Michael into our home, hearts, and arms. Adam's grandma passed, I reconnected with my Auntie Trish & her loving husband Joe (he's my UJ). We did some minor home repairs, prepped the nursery, & took a couple of long weekend trips to Bisbee, AZ. We had lots of visits from our family & Michael's God Father Cheyenne. We caught a couple of colds & was visited by a nasty flu bug. Most importantly, we had received such unbelievable support in our decision to adopt from all of our family & friends.

I know that it's some what of a cliche to make NY's resolutions, although this year I would like to focus more on my close friends & family. And I would love to paint more of the interior of our home & make it warmer.

I hope you all had a very safe New Year's Eve!
