January
It is never too cold in Orange County for the beach.
24th birthday- You are never too old to make silly faces.
February
That Kate could now stand herself up in her cradle. We had a good 8 months in there.
How to make baby food!
March
Babies look really cute and squishy in a helmet.
Swallow's Day Parades are fun, and that Kate can make silly faces too.
April
That Kate really was going to get teeth! First glimpse...
That Kate was self conscious. Mad at us for taking a picture of her chubby body in a bikini.
May
We would never eat dinner sitting next to eachother anymore. Matt also learned that 29 is a lot close to 30 than 28 was.
A night or two away from your first baby is hard, but much needed!
That we had the cutest one year old ever. And nothing is more cute than a chubby face wearing a Birthday Princess hat.
Kate really could do something other than roll around and drink milk! She crawled!!
June
We learned a lot of fun swimming songs at swim lessons, and that Kate did NOT like going underwater.
That Saturdays beach days as a family=perfection.
July
All about mold! Found our first lovely home, and began the 4 month long process.
That Kate could walk!!!
That we have some great friend to vacation with, and that everyone needs a little boating time. Also, that babies act really funny with life jackets on.
August
That cousins are fun to play with.
And three years together seems like forever! (In a good way!)
September
Kate is happier in a one piece, looks pretty cute in pig tails, and that the beach really is our favorite spot.
That Escrows really do close, and that signing all the papers is a lot more glamorous on TV.
How do tape off a room, sand, paint, scrub, clean any and all nasty things clean, and install toilets. We also learned every employees name at Lowe's, and decided to nick name it Lowe's Blows.
Remove, cut and lay tile, tile, tile! And that maybe next time we will pay someone to do it for us!
October
After a year of waiting, moving day seems like Christmas morning!
November
That Gerber's food is not completely safe...and Kate gets a really scary look in her eye when she is choking. (The Gerber Lap tested that chunk she choked on, and told us it was a "woody carrot fiber"..more on that later)
Disneyland is super fun with an 18 month old.
That we work well as a painting team, and we can remodel (I use that term loosely) a whole bathroom in a 2 days. We also learned that Frog Tape works pretty well!
December
That Kate had lost 3 pounds, and Ani gained those three pounds plus one. Happy, but sad day.
Rainy days really can be fun, and that Kate always has to take the trash out with her Dada.
And that being a family of three is really fun.
It was the best year, and we are excited for what 2010 has in store for our family!
Happy New Year!
