Happy New Year

So I've been slacking from updating...I'm uploading pics to the computer and realized that I have 212 pictures from Christmas. How do I choose what to post?



The holidays are over and we're in 2008 now. Where did the year go? My baby is almost 2...eek!

We had 4 Christmas celebrations and all were lots of fun. Nick was much more enthusiastic about Christmas this year than last year. Once he realized he could open multiple presents it was on...before he would open one gift and then play with it for a couple of hours, by the end of the day he was a pro! We all got spoiled by Santa this year. It's a toss up between Nick's favorite present. First it was the garbage truck from Grandpa Ed, which the batteries were dead within 2 days....now it's the fish. Uncle Danny bought Nick a fish tank for Christmas and we have 2 goldfish now. Their names are "go go go" and "Dorothy". Mommy was spoiled by Eddie Claus with a heart lock charm from Tiffany's (my first little blue box) and daddy was spoiled with lots of kisses from Nick!

Eddie is working a new shift (woo hoo!!!) He no longer works weekend graveyard shifts, he's now working swingshift during the week. He's working Mon-Thurs 1pm-10:30pm. I'm LOVING this shift. It's a lot more work for Eddie, but we love him for making the sacrifice.
Eddie also turned 30 last month. My parents got us tickets to see Kooza (AWESOME show!) in the city with babysitting service included.

New Year's Eve was spent having dinner with my folks (Eddie worked) and being in bed by 10. I'm now a fuddy duddy! Nick and I rang in the new year yesterday by going to the gym and hanging out at home all day. Of course we watched a movie!
Here's to a prosperous 2008 to you all. May the year bring you all what you have wanted...

These pics make me SO excited for next Christmas when my baby isn't such a baby any more and can be as into it all as Nick was! :)

wow, you got your personal santa, you must have been very good.
Nothing so much fun as seeing those big children's eyes full of expectations. But I still enjoy it too.
We still have a few gifts that need to be exchanged because of the multiple families. So I am still in joyeux expectations.
