Wow, I can’t believe that 2011 has come and gone already. This past year has been a great one, but we are looking forward to great things moving into the new year.

How did you ring in the New Year? 

Did you go to a party? Celebrate at home, or did you watch the ball drop live? 

We used to go to New Years parties, however since having children we like to stay home, get comfy, snack all night, watch movies, play games and ring in the New Year with our kiddos. Last night all 5 boys were up to watch the ball drop! 

We had a great time, however I was disturbed from my sleep around 5 am with a little guy that was getting sick. That’s right, our baby decided to start 2012 off with a yucky stomach bug. However, you wouldn’t know by looking at him at the moment. He is playing and happy as can be. One minute he’s throwing up and the next he’s bouncing around and playing with his new toys. I’m just praying that this sickness doesn’t last long. The rest of the family is eating our new favorite flu meds like they are candy in hopes that we stay healthy. (The meds are called Oscillo -that’s the short name for them-and we will be blogging about them in the next day or so, so stay tuned!) 

Have you made any New Year’s resolutions? 

I want to get more organized. I say that every year and I really want to try hard to declutter my house and my life and make things more simple. 

What will you be doing in the New Year?
