You Say Goodbye and I Say Hello

The year 2012 came and went with a bang. It certainly was a memorable year with many happy times. I think I closed my eyes for a moment and found it over. I am sad to say goodbye to 2012 for many reasons but mainly because time is going by too fast. I just want to freeze time and keep all this blissfulness in my pocket for a little while longer. Some of my favorite memories include:

• Teaching Emma to rollerskate.
• Abby's hair being long enough to put in pigtails.
• Finding out we were pregnant with our third child.
• Taking a family trip to Disneyland.
• Emma winning the pig race at the Rodeo.
• Rediscovering Austin during Spring Break.
• Abby and me pictured in the newspaper.
• Hosting an Easter egg hunt for our neighborhood buddies.
• Visiting the Waco Zoo.
• Welcoming and meeting our two new nieces, Elle & Rosa.
• Taking a long family trip to California and Colorado.
• Watching the girls take dance lessons.
• A family trip to the beach.
• Emma learning to swim.
• The girls getting matching TOMS.
• Abby starting preschool.
• Emma starting her last year in ELE (tear).
• Taking the girls to see Thomas the Train.
• Abby's obsession with everything Disney.
• Watching the kids play with their cousins during Thanksgiving.
• Afternoons outside with our neighborhood friends.
• Emma turning 5 and asking for a party with friends. So proud of her social accomplishments.

The number one memory of 2012, was welcoming our handsome little man, William. Life is so amazing with him in it.

We look forward to seeing what 2013 has in store for us. 2012 did end with some interesting news for me that I will share later on in January. I became part of a club that I never thought would happen. So heres hoping 2013 is filled with joy and happiness.
