Welcome 2010

2009 was a great year, as I said before it was a roller coaster of emotions but Presley has brought a new joy into our home. Her smile lights up the room and her laugh, just makes you laugh along with her. So as we say goodbye to a great year, we are looking forward to an even better and busier 2010.

This last week has been good and busy! Wednesday my friend Cindy got word that she might be having her baby early! She was only 37 weeks, but her blood pressure was going to prevent her from getting to 40 weeks! So we were all excited that she might have a new years baby!
Thursday we got ready for Brock and Jackie's New Years party! Lots of drinking, eating and laughs. We took Presley for a while but like always she was overwhelmed by all the people and was cranky for the first hour or so. Once she got used to it, she was a little happier and willing to look at people without glaring at them! My parents came to the party for a bit and then took Presley back to our house, put her to bed and my mom stayed with her until we got home! Nice huh? We are so lucky to have them around, aren't we? ;)
Here is Steve playing a little drums on Rock Band. He thinks he's pretty good (on the easy level), he's thinking about going pro.
And we also had some karaoke competitions on Sing Star, it was a lot of fun with a lot of great songs! Most of which Samantha had never heard of (poor young thing), it's amazing what a difference 5 years is between us. I feel sorry that she had to miss out on all the great 80's, early 90's music because let's face it.....it rocked!
Here are Jackie, Chris, Lyndsi and Lisa singing We Didn't Start the Fire! (love that song!)

Here is April and her bottle of champange! They look good together, don't they?

Here is adorable Ava, Brock and Jackie's little girl! She is 4 1/2 months old, but weighs as much as Presley did at 6 months. I love those cheeks!!!!

And it turns out Cindy and Micheal had a new years baby girl!!! Welcome Breanna Jane, weighing in at 7 lbs, 1 oz and 18 1/2 inches long (can you imagine how big she would've been if she would've gone to 40 weeks)! I warned Cindy that she could have the baby early, but she didn't listen to me. They were not prepared for this little bundle of joy (the car seat is still in the box as I type this!) They will be great parents and I wish they all the joy in the world. :)
