Another year page to the book of adventures

2010 came and is gone.. But as I look back, it amazes me how busy we have been at times, how much the kids had grown, how many miles we had traveled, how many changes has our little family made in just a year.
Let's recount.
Chronologically speaking would have been like this:

January - lots of snow, no job, cooking with daddy, church ball, Mavericks hockey game.

February - more snow = sledding, still no job, reading with daddy, church ball, Valentine's, baby news = vomiting.

March- little snow, no job, road trip for family funeral (WY) and best friend's wedding (UT)= road sickness, birthday, baby growing, more morning.. all-day-sickness..

April- Easter egg hunt, Samuel's first kite flying, museums visits, little vomiting, got a job but too late because we are returning to Dominica.

May- Enjoying Dominica, Samuel's first school, loving playgroup, little dermatitis, no more vomiting!

June- too much dermatitis = flying back to NE sooner than planned, cute beach family pictures before leaving.

July- family reunion (SD), enjoying AC, dermatitis getting better, enjoying summer, belly really growing, missing hubby and daddy, enjoying summer with lots of time outside.

Aug- enjoying summer weather, little dermatitis, Jay's visit x 2 weeks, first time sewing (Relief Society activity.. jean quilt).

Sept- posters for welcomes = my mom (Colombia), my sister-in-law (ID), my brother-in-law coming back from mission (Germany) all in the same week! adjusting to more crowded house.. but loving the extra help!

Oct- no snow, belly is too big to sleep good, anticipation.. Jay is here for 8 days, induce and 4 hours later with no drugs Daniel got here! Bye daddy, hello baby, trick or treat.

Nov- no snow, little sleep, recovering, enjoying abuelita.. thanksgiving, black Friday, bye to my mom.

Dec- little snow, abuelita withdrawls, enjoying Christmas time, baby sleeps through the night, Jay's here for 3 weeks, sister-in-law's here for a week, brother-in-law's engaged, Santa was very giving and generous (I have a feeling because is at Grandma's house), 30-hour-trip to Nauvoo, IL, family pictures, bye sister and brother-in-law, a week later bye daddy..

Ladies and gentlemen, that was 2010 and a lot of adventures and we hope to have a lot more this year.. It broke my heart to have decided with Jay for the kids and I to not return with him to the island.. but this time, my health came first.
