Recap

Since I’m a terrible mom, I totally dropped the ball this year on keeping up with Amelia’s baby book/calendar.  However, I did document pretty much everything on Facebook, so I went back and started pulling important dates and events from there.  In the process, I’ve reached the conclusion that pretty much all I talk about is Amelia and the weather.   I have also decided that if someone only knew me through Facebook, they’d think I’m pretty weird (then again, most people who know me outside of Facebook think I’m pretty weird).   Just for fun,  I compiled a few of my random, non-Amelia/weather related statuses from last year.  I also threw in a few completely unrelated mobile uploads I posted to Facebook.  Enjoy… or completely ignore.  I’m okay either way.

Amber …

Pancake Breakfast

It's bitter cold outside, we both slept WAY late this morning, and I still have a holiday hangover.  Definitely a pancake morning.  And since Peanut turns 17 months old today, those pancakes need a healthy dose of chocolate chips. 

This week last year we were excited because she rolling herself over.  Now she's eating pancakes all by herself.  It's almost sad that the time of our lives during which we change and discover the most is one we don't remember.

I love you, Peanut.  I'm so proud of you, today and every day.
