Another year gone
Well, here we all are about to pass through the end of 2007 into the new year of 2008. I am sure we are all pretty much thinking the same thing, "Where has this year gone!?". I don't know about the rest of you but it's been another crazy as crap and eventful year! The questions lie at our feet until at last one by one they are picked up, faced, and answered. What did I accomplish this year? Did I do what I set out to do at the beginning of the year? What can be improved upon? And then we settle on one of them usually to base our new year resolution off of. haha. Well at least this is somewhat what goes through my mind. :P
We've all taken on new tasks and grown in different ways. It's an unknown and endless journey. I am happy that I am still friends with those of you from previous years, and I want to also add that I'm happy and also lucky, to have met some of you just this past year. People come into our lives for a reason, for a time...a season, and then they go.
UPDATE:
I'm still doing the Data Entry from home even though the people I work for are completely uneducated communication wise and are not dependable. :) I only make $8.00 an hour, but I suppose to be able to do it and be home with my angel, and only have to work for them for a short time until I am done with school, then I can just buck up and deal with it. ;) I am still doing my Medical Transcription Program, so in May I should be finished with the course and have a better job and still be able to work from home.
I cherish every waking moment with Addy and so much that I have basically given up everything I ever was and ever wanted to be, to be the perfect little mommy for her. Yes, that includes my running. Parenthood involves so much sacrifice, but with it comes so much love! No offense to those of you that read this that I've told that I love you, but I have never felt this much love in my life before my daughter! ;) lol. My weight and the way my body feels is ridiculous. I know I'll never be the same, so yeah, sad times with frustration and tears definitely come, but when I see what I've done for Addison and who she is becoming because of me, nothing makes me want anything more for her than to grow up healthy, happy, and successful. If now is the time to help mold that for her, then so be it.. that's what I am going to be doing! :) 2008 may it bring a miracle!! -LOL
Addy has 6 teeth and actually likes to brush them while singing momma's "brush your teeth song". haha. Anytime, she likes to sing and dance-she's got natural rhythm like her mom! haha, loves to turn the dials on the entertainment stereo system, watch Harry Potter movies, click the mouse on the computer, and hit the keyboard. She absolutely loves rolling, bouncing, and wrestling on the bed! She is building confidence and is slowly taking one to two steps now. She says Hi, Bye, No, What's this... and many more things. I swear she picks up a new word or new habit everyday! :P
OUR THANKSGIVING:
We had a little thanksgiving here at home first. I spent most of the day in the kitchen cooking a turkey (turned out delicious I might add) :) ... a pumpkin pie, blackberry pie, apple pie, and sweet potatoe casserole and stuffing. Dinner was fantastic. Then the next day-(Thanksgiving day) we went to Grandma/Grandpa Truscott's house for the real thing. Afterward Addy played with her cousins, and I went and played football. I scored 2 touchdowns! lol. And well, about busted my hip after a leap of about 3 feet into the air taking out the opposite team player. I couldn't believe my aggressiveness! Did I ever mention I can't stand how sexist my brother in law can be!? UGH.... regardless I got one of the hardest work outs that day than I have experienced in a long time! :D I hope you all enjoyed YOUR family time haha, and had a great Thanksgiving!
Coming in May, we'll be moving to Idaho where I am from to live closer to my family. May all of you find that your own states where you live bring you warmth and happiness in the Spring and Summer months, and refreshment with peace in the cooler months. When the times comes, have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
With our love,
Tara and Addy- p.s. those of you who would like a christmas picture, email us your address! xoxo.
