This year I....

I was inspired by Kaylah from the Daintysquid to take a moment and reflect on this past year. Man oh man did I do a lot!!!

In January I traveled to Colorado to attend my grandfather's funeral. 

In early April we made the announcement that we were expecting.

In May I graduated!! 

I spent the spring and summer nesting, learning Spanish and trying to survive one of the hottest summers ever! We had TWO baby showers and went on a beautiful vacation. I had my ten year high school reunion! I also got to spend some time with my dear friend Kate (who lives in the UK) and ALL of my siblings (which is super rare). 

Pat on vacation.

In October Henson was born. 

The rest of the year has been a blur of bonding, family visits, doctor's appointments and diaper changing. Although recently Henson and I did take our first trip to celebrate my dad's retirement where he also met his cousin Wilder.

Phew! I also read a ton, watched every episode of the Sopranos, designed and decorated a nursery, quit my job, made new friends and blogged! This year was crazy good but I hope 2014 is a little um....calmer. Happy New Year everyone!! Thanks for looking, Love, Ms. Kate.
