Starting off the NEW YEAR

So far we've been lazy. I have started my goal of losing the rest of my baby weight, I've been doing alright so far, I have my snack of chocolate chip banana muffins that I made before the new year, so after those are gone, its carrot sticks! I've been really wanting to lose the rest but my motivation is its a brand new year, bring it on, maybe. My cousin, Danielle & her college friend are traveling to Portland, Or. to see boyfriends & friends, they decided to come see us before they headed that way, a little out of their way but it was nice of them. I am happy to see family, but I have caught the head cold, but I sucked it up anyways, and we toured around Oak Harbor and I enjoyed having family & girl talk. We got to go walk along the beach which its been a while for us, Addyson loved it being bundled up in her stroller. Then Addyson ended up having a slight cough and stuffy nose so last night she woke up three times. I don't know how I am functioning but I am. Josh has to make a trip to Seattle to pick up friends from the there long trip back home, which now they are coming back engaged! Congratulations Kellie & Aaron! Lately we've been blessed with the beautiful sun and clear blue sky but that clear sky at night is giving us such cold days. I don't like being stuck inside sick when its so nice outside, hopefully it keeps it up. This year is going to be so exciting. Addyson turns 1, Our family is moving to Everett, we'll be closer to home, starting school, maybe squeeze in a job, my sister is graduating, and I AM GOING TO BE AN AUNTIE! (again) I haven't told many people because she has been having troubles, but my mom is taking her to the doctor on Thursday. I'm excited, but scared for her, when I first found out a few weeks ago, I was just in shock. Hopefully our entire family will support her and that way the baby is brought into a great place when he/she comes (I think it might be a BOY, but that is what I thought about Addy) even if the Dad isn't around. I miss my family lots, but I'm excited to come home this late spring, maybe Josh will take a few days leave and we can take Addyson fourwheeling! Just a lot of things going on so far for this year, and I am VERY VERY excited. As excited I am, I think I am going to go lay down while Addyson is napping. (pictures soon)
