Happy New Year 2011

Another year...so many changes.
I set one really huge personal goal for myself and I DID IT - I achieved it this year - it felt REALLY REALLY good!  I found 'my word' which is 'intention'...more precisely 'living with intention.'  I fell in love with another little boy - I love so many boys I am starting to produce testosterone.  
I am plum full of love - I am so happy I have so much to give and so many people in my life to give to.
This year...I will continue my journey from last year and build upon it.  I will live with intention.  I will try harder to enjoy the moments that seem insignificant at the time.  
I will sit down with my Carson tomorrow and have him write out a goal for this year and create a vision board (I'll post a picture of it later).
I will potty train Cam and toss out Cam and Crew's binky's (shoot - did I really just commit to that?)
I will be a better tennis player.
I will find a passion for myself unrelated to my husband and kids.
On that note...good night 2010!

Santa, puppies, jumpy houses, family, kids, oh my...we LOVE Christmas

 Molson got a NEW puppy friend (hopefully to help with his separation anxiety) - so far I think Bauer drives Molson crazy

 Little Bauer Sox - he is so cute and only 7 weeks
 Snowman making
 Christmas morning - look at all those presents



 Look at Crew - almost walking.  As I am blogging this Crew decided to walk yesterday December 29th, 2010.  He literally just decided he was going to walk and he hasn't stopped.
 Boys
 self timer and it sort of didn't work
 Scott, Lisa and Sienna came for the holidays
Cam, Carson, Sienna and Crew

2010 Pay it Forward Cousin's Party

White Elephant Gift exchange - McCall opened a Power Lift Bra - it was funny.

Tyler's gifts kept getting stolen so he opened quite a few

these slippers were made by one of my Aunts (we think Camille) - they are maxi pads with BLING

Cory and Tyler trying to figure out this little guy that is sitting on a toilet but actually doubles as a tape dispenser and pen holder


Seth flipping off our cousins that skipped out on the party - hahahaha

Lacey and Tyson - they are so cute

McCall, Shannon and Susanne

Tyler was pretending to be a photographer so these are some random pictures

Shannon, Jenny and I hosted the Cousin's party this year...we had a great night with yummy food, funny gifts, hilarious game and just lots of laughter.  The week prior to the party the cousins randomly and secretly 'elfed' each other...in the spirit of performing a random act of kindness.

Molson Buggies...

Our little Molson Buggies had surgery yesterday and is recovering...He ate a plastic ball which lodged in his intestine AGAIN.  Hopefully, it will not get infected!  I had put him in the garage until we took him to the vet and when I came home from the gym Carson had put his gingerbread man that he had made at school (which had a cut-out of Carson's head) next to him, 'so that Molson wouldn't forget what he looked like.'  Carson is SO worried about Molson getting better and making sure he doesn't die.  It is amazing to see out how much he cares for him...I love that he is learning compassion and respect for other living things.  There are so many things (including a dead animal every once in a while) that Molson brings to our lives every day. 
We love you Molson...now get your stinky butt home.
