Happy New Year!  This month has been pretty laid back... lots of fun with friends and down time.  And lots of indoor time because its been so freaking cold outside!  We all had the flu (as in influenza) this month.  Sean and gia were down for a couple of day, but I was down for 6 whole days.  As in, could not get out of bed.  Ugh.  It was the worst.  And now I've still got a lingering cold & Gia has had a runny nose for weeks.  But other than that, we can't complain!  We did lots of coloring & building things.  I've been working on a blanket for my nephew who is currently a week overdue.  Come on, baby!  I caught a couple of Oscar flicks at the theatre and even got flowers from my hubby.  Its been a very good month & I am blessed!  Next month is Whitney's month... looking forward to it and dreading it all at the same time.
