The End of 2009

Can anyone believe it.... 2009 is over.

My 2009 highlights are:
Degan was born April 6, 2009.
His cousin was born Feb 7, 2009; Elizabeth Buhrig.
Craig got a steady job in March.
We bought a house in August.
Terry came home from is mission in September.
I quit my job in September to be home with Degan. (AWESOME)
I also started school again. (I am not sure that is a highlight but it happened.)
And we had another great year in McCall with the family.

2009 was a great year. So much happened. Thanks to family and friends that loved and supported us in all that we did. To Linda and Steve helping us move 3 times in a short amount of time. Oh and I was eight months prego. Thanks to my parents that helped us find the perfect house for our cute little family. To Jeri and Scott-Maybe this year we can find more friends to party with! And to the girls that watch our husbands play basketball, here's to another season! Hopefully 2010 will bring as much joy as 2009!

2010 Resolutions
You know the norm
Loose weight and get fit. (Just get healthy!)
Craig and I really need to get our budget in order.
Be a better wife and mother.
Study hard in school.
Hopefully sometime this year Craig and I can build on to our house. (We have major plans.)

This is the YEAR!!!

I should be doing my Homework, but I'm not!

Degan was a pumkin for Halloween. He was so cute. Once I got the camera out he started to attack me.

See hollydianephotography.blogspot.com for our family pictures.

My life is upside down.... and I love it!

Bronco GAME DAY!

Tomorrow it has been one month that I have been home with Degan. Wow, how did I get anything done when I went to work everyday. Life is great. I am busy as ever and get to see Degan grow up. The past month, we have moved into our house. It is wonderful. We have put a lot of work into it (and money) but I love it. The inside is mostly done. I just have to put things away and pictures up on the wall. Outside is another story. We had Steve (Craig’s dad) cut 2 very big trees down and one of the stumps is up. It is huge. I am not really sure what we are supposed to do with it. No grass yet, but hopefully this weekend we will plant some parts of the yard. Craig has been working out of town the past couple weeks. He is home now and working hard!

Degan is growing like crazy. It is so fun to be home with him. I can clean my house everyday and no one would notice because of him. I up his toys away while he is sleeping and put them right back on the ground where I found them when he wakes up. He doesn’t sleep through the night yet so we aren’t as productive as we could be. The last night was a good night! He is trying to crawl. He gets up on all fours and rocks and then lunges forward on his chest. Some how he can be from one side of the house to the other in seconds flat. I try to feed him baby food at least once a day. He is gaining weight so his cousins better watch out!

Terry is HOME and looks great! He got in Wednesday September 23 at 10:18. Well his plane was early and was waiting for us when we got there. Sorry. My dad has had him busy!

I started school at TVCC last week and man, I don’t remember it being this hard. I have already dropped a class. It was just too much for me to handle. I am taking English, Art and Education classes. Hopefully in two years I will have my teaching certificate. Hopefully!
Life couldn’t be better!

GO BSU!!!!

Terry

Terry sent some pictures in his last email. I thought that I would share. He has one month left. We are excited! My mother can't wait to have her baby boy home. We don't have a date yet, and that is killing her. She only have a month!

2 years!!

Today is Craig and I's second anniversary. We have a beautiful baby, we are moving into a great house and love each other more than anything. Who would have thought! Life to be so good.

Just bragging!

Degan had a Dr. Appointment on August 6. The doc said he was perfect! He weights 15 lb 11 oz and is 26 1/2 inches long. He has strong muscles and is holding up his head really well. He has been rolling over for a couple weeks now. Linda said that when she picked him up from his nap yesterday, he had rolled on his back. I will get some new pictures of him. He is getting so big and cuter if that is possible. Three weeks and he is all mine!
