I cannot believe how fast 2010 went by. Just twelve months ago, I was very pregnant and so excited about what all this year held for us. It has been everything I hoped for and more. Here are some of my favorite moments from the year.
In January, there was a national championship win, our annual trip to the circus and thirty-one things we love about our sweet daddy.
February brought our first snowfall of the year, a Valentine’s date and a little work on our swing.
In March, we took a trip to the zoo, visited the hospital for a sibling preparation class and had a very reassuring visit with our high-risk OB after a rather scary ultrasound.
In April we had our LAST prenatal visit, celebrated a visit from the Easter Bunny and finally welcomed our sweet Sophie into the world.
May was a month of firsts: Ella’s first haircut and mommy’s first day taking care of two little girls on my own! We also managed to snap pictures to share of Sophie’s finished nursery.
June was one of my favorite months. Ella danced her socks off in her very first dance recital, we took our first vacation as a family of four, chased fireflies for the first time and spent MANY lazy days pool-side.
Sophie had her three month photo session, we kept up our daily routine of naps and laps and I finally went back to work all in the month of July.
Can you believe it was August before Sophie had her first taste of yummy green peas? We also spent a rainy weekend at the beach, met our bestie for a swim party and Sophie found her voice.
September was a fun month. We went to our first game as season ticket holders, celebrated a pretty fantastic birthday and threw a huge party.
In October we dressed up like animals, had a little reunion and took our sixth month photos {although I didn’t post about them until November}.
With it, November brought shoeboxes to fill, Ella’s first Alabama football game and lots of Christmas card orders.
December was my second favorite month. we rode the Polar Express, found the {not so} perfect Christmas tree, met Santa Claus and welcomed a white Christmas in Alabama.
