Our 2009 January in Review:

31. We had all free cable channels all month long!

30. Chloe finally decided she wants a princess birthday party at home.

29. At work, I had 11 meetings and completed 5 evaluations.

28. Chloe knows the 12 months of the year!

27. Kyle is now in 24 month-2T clothes and wears a size 6-7 shoe.

25. Everett started playing on 2 soccer teams again.

24. Kyle has a big boy bed!

23. Chloe is now in 4T clothes and wears a size 9 shoe.

22. Every morning, Kyle and Chloe want to eat their daddy's breakfast even if it is the same as what I fixed them. It just tastes so much better when it is on daddy's plate!

21. Everett and I both had a cold for a few days, and the kiddos somehow managed to stay well!

20. We stuffed Nay.

19. Kyle now says he is "sorry" when he yells or pushes someone.

18. We went to Captain Nemo's with Rachel, Tony, Julie and Louie.

17. Kyle now says 3-4 word phrases and sentences, and people can understand him!

16. We all went to visit Granny

15. Chloe's favorite comment: "You're so silly!"

14. I turned in 2009-2010 preschool enrollment forms for both Chloe and Kyle. It is hard to believe that they will both be in preschool next year!

13. Chloe and I saw the movie, Hotel for Dogs, with Cousin Madison and Aunt Brenda!

12. Chloe painted my nails! She painted her grandma's nails, too!!

11. Homer turned 3 years old!

10. Chloe spells her last name and wants to start to write it.

9. Two "ICE" days off from work even though one of them was not very icy.

8. Kyle sat in the barber chair all by himself and got his hair cut like a big boy!

7. Chloe completed 40 piece floor puzzles by herself.

6. Everett and I went on 2 dates to Uncle Buck's Steakhouse.

5. I attended my first parent-teacher conference with me being on the parent side this time!

4. Chloe can do a cartwheel!

3. Kyle's favorite sentence: "Have a nice day!"

2. We are thankful to have 2 children who look forward to going to bed. We must really wear them out!

AND the #1 thing in January: Kyle went tee-tee in the potty 7 times the last couple of weeks...potty training a boy might not be as hard as I thought it would be.

January was mild compared to the whirlwind of the holidays!

I already know February will be busier with planning 2 birthday parties!
