Happy 2009

I have to say that New Years Eve was wonderful, spent just the three of us, cozy and simple. We went out to dinner around 6ish, came back home and played for a bit, then it was off to bed for Noah and into the jacuzzi for me and my hubby. Of course we were dozing at around 10:30 so we set the alarm for 11:45. Sure enough we had fallen asleep and I awoke just as the count down was beginning. My husband isn't one for the whole ball dropping thing so we was still half asleep. 

As everyone was counting down I starting crying. That is the first time in my 27 years that New Years Eve made me cry. At that moment I just felt so happy, so thankful, and so optimistic about the future. It may sound super cheesy but it was a really great moment. Our neighbor started setting off fireworks that I could see from my bed, it was just so so nice! About 2 minutes later Noah woke up and wanted to nurse, and as I held him in our bed, looking out at the stars, I felt peace.

I have a lot of "work" to do in the new year, work on myself as an individual since that has really taken a back seat since becoming a mother. I would love to shed those last 10 baby pounds I have lingering, I want to "de-frump", make some more time for my husband. We shall see how it goes, but for now I am sitting in my robe, eating cinnamon bread because well...the diet starts tomorrow!

Happy New Year to all!
