Happy New Year!

It has been busy around here lately. We rang in the New Year with a silly hat, Chinese food, noisemakers, and chocolate fondue.

Matthew is doing new things like getting out of his bed all by himself in the morning. I usually hear him open his bedroom shades, followed by the sound of his footsteps down the hallway to my room. In his own words:

"In the morning, I climb out of bed, open all the windows, find Mama, and play more trains."
