Everyone in the house is sleeping right now (including the animals), so I thought I'd update my blog really quickly. Since today is the first day of the new year, I wanted to reflect back on a few things. This time last year, Nathan said "2008 is going to be great". Well, the year certainly has had its ups and downs, but of course the most important thing is the blessing of our first child. The next 7 months were rocky as I returned back to work and Nathan worked at home while keeping Nixon, but our prayers paid off in October when Nathan found a job with a small law firm and I was able to quit work to take care of our home and family. 2008 was great, and despite the country's economic turmoil, I'd like to say that 2009 is going to be fine.
Nixon is really growing and becoming so mobile. On Dec 11th, he took his first crawling steps. He's now a pro and has already learned to climb up the 2 steps going down into our family room. Below are photos from some recent events -

Sorry I didn't look at this sooner, but as I told you I don't get on my computer very often. Wow, I can't believe how big Nixon is getting and that he is actually crawling. Now the fun begins. You will have even more fun as he learns to get around. I must say that I am happy for both you and Nathan. The Lord certainly has blessed you. Love You MOM
His cousins and I were talking the other day, and we realized Nixon will be ONE YEAR OLD in less than two months!!!! WOW! We can't wait. Thanks so much for letting us keep up with his progress. He is absolutely adorable.
I love that he's crawling for the remote! Definately Nathans child :)
