Yeah, right! A second baby, 23 months younger than the first... relaxing it won't be. And that's ok, because we are very excited! We are looking forward to the year and all that God has planned for us!
It has been a very cold day today and we've been in our pajamas most of the day. Lawson didn't go to sleep last night until 11:00 so he slept until 8:00 this morning which was very nice. Russ stirred up some sausage balls for breakfast this morning and Lawson loves to eat sausage balls, or just "balls" as he calls them! : )
Here he is sitting and watching them cook.
After breakfast, we played, watched Elmo, watched the parade, watched football, watched Elmo some more and then we decided to go for a quick ride around the countryside... we needed to get out of the house! Lawson took a nap and Russ and I got a milkshake at Chick-fil-a so it was well worth the trip.
Around 3:00, we ate our typical New Year's Day lunch. Russ and I have been cooking this same meal each year that we've been married except for one and we were traveling back to North Dakota, and I must say that this year was the best yet! I suppose after six years you get it right! We don't cook this combination at any other time of the year.
So for lunch/dinner, we had battered bacon, a Russ specialty, homemade macaroni-and-cheese, southern seasoned black eyed peas, fried cabbage, and homemade sweet cornbread, along with sweet tea! It was yummy!!!!
Even Lawson enjoyed his New Year's lunch... in his PJs!
May God bless each of you and your families as He has ours.
Much love, peace, and happiness in 2010!
That sounds a bit like our New Year's Day....lots of relaxing and some eating in pajamas! ;) Lawson is growing up, and SO looks like a little boy....he seems so much more physical than Sadie in the pics from Christmas. Our nephew was the same over Christmas....ALL boy...and I'm sure you wouldn't have it any other way! It looks like he is enjoying life and well loved! Merry Christmas to you guys. We LOVED your Christmas card....it was absolutely beautiful (Daniel even said so!....so you know it's nice when a guy notices!). I hope you're feeling well also. I'm thinking about you and little Emmett. love you all!
