Where do I begin..... of course..... Zion! Zion is almost 5 months. He is rolling over, sitting up with help, and he is fascinated with Coda our dog. He is only getting up once a night and today he slept until 8am. It was heaven. It is amazing what a good night sleep will do... I feel like a different person. This next week Zion will be starting solids. I can't wait to see his face as he eats food for the first time. Don't worry I will get pictures.
Thanksgiving was really fun. We spent Thanksgiving with Conner's family up in Ontario. It was great to be around family and the food was wonderful. Thank you to Aunt VIv and Uncle Gary for hosting Thanksgiving this year.
The month of December... Let me think.... It went by so fast. OH YEAH,
Conner's birthday was on the 12th- He turned 32. I flew Barbara in for the week and we surprised Conner at his work. He had no idea his Mom was coming. It was so much fun. Barbara watched Zion so Conner and I could go surfing and after that we went to a really nice dinner at the West in Carlsbad. It was the best present ever to spend an evening just Conner and I. Thank you Barbara for watching our little man! I got Conner the new GOPRO HD Surf Hero video camera. Check out the video! It is sick!!!!!- ( sick in a good way:)
Christmas was so much fun. My Mom and Dad flew in for the weekend. We had everyone here for dinner on Christmas day. One of my friends I moved here with was pregnant and due on Dec. 31 so she couldn't fly home for christmas. WE invited her and her husband Risshan to spend the night Christmas Eve and stay for dinner Christmas day. Well Jo went into labor Christmas Eve and had ELijah @ 3:35pm on Christmas day. What a great Christmas present!
Conner and I had never cooked a turkey before (terrifying) but we decided to try it. Conner brined the turkey for 48 hours. I am telling you it was the best turkey I have ever had. No REALLY! I will never cook a turkey any other way! Delicious!!! We are still eating let overs:)
2010
What a wonderful year! I want to praise God for all he has done for us and for blessing us with our beautiful healthy son Zion. He is the joy of our lives! I am blown away by what God has done in one year. May God be the center of our lives in the next coming year and always. I pray that we will be open to his wisdom as he guides us through this adventure of parenthood.
I leave you with one of my favorite scriptures and I hope it is one that will bring you peace as you look back on all the amazing blessings God has provided in this last year and will provide in the next. We love you!
