Just a thought...Why does Leap Year exist? Why do we have 1/4 days each year? It makes absolutely NO sense!! Anyway, that's been bugging me lately...
We are having an extremely lazy weekend! It's lovely.:) I did get out our box of 6-12 month clothes for Jazzy so she has some more options...and put away all the ones she doesn't fit anymore. It appeased my OCD immensely! :)
I did our taxes last week and we are getting a HUGE refund this year! We are going to pay off some bills so we don't have to worry about them anymore! Super excited!! :)
Anyway, just a little tidbit of the weekend. I'm trying to write more often, but it never seems to work out for me. We've gotten the house a little more organzied as of late, so I should be able to write more because I have to clean less.:)
Talk to you soon!

Deck the Halls, Bruise Your Hand
So, ya...it's been a LONG TIME since I had any time to sit down and write to all of you. Lots of stuff going on. Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years...and lots of day-to-day stuff.
Thanksgiving was an ordeal! We hosted Josh's side of the family, which is, thankfully, much smaller than mine! It was a lot of work, but with it. We got to use our fancy china which we've never had a chance to use before. We had fun! Jazzy tried sweet potatoes for the first time, and she loved them!
Christmas was a huge ordeal! We had our own little family Christmas on Christmas Eve, just the three of us. It was fun! Jasmine opened her present herself. Watch below:
She is so cute! :)
We then had Christmas with Josh's family (Parents and brother, and his fiance) on Christmas morning, and celebrated with my family (extended: aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents...over 20 people!) on Christmas night. It was a LONG day! But, it was fun.:)
On New Years, we just vegged and watched movies. Josh passed out before midnight, like he usually does. I had planned on it, too, but I was still putting Jazzy to bed...so I watched the ball drop by myself. It was nice and quiet...until someone started shooting off fireworks and GUNS in our neighborhood! Not my favorite!
We also got family portraits done in the beginning of December. They turned out great! Here are a few:
I love them!
Let's see...what else...Oh! Jazzy got her first teeth last week! I'm so excited.:) I love little baby teeth! And she's almost crawling. She does this little inch-worm thing...it's adorable! When she really starts crawling, she's going to be EVERYWHERE! She can't hold still.:) I can't really think of anything else right now...I'm hoping to be able to write more often...*crosses fingers* We will see!
Have a good start to the year!

P.S. Farewell Karen. You are sorely missed! You are where you want to be now; you are lucky!
