Happy New Year!

Our New Year is off to a great start!  All due to Amelia being a great baby.  She is really good in the car now, our trip to Freeport went fine (we left from Elgin so she wasn't in the car too long).  I even took her around to some of the doctor offices I call on and everybody thought she was such a chill, well-behaved baby.  I felt so proud! :)

This blog is getting harder and harder to maintain now that I am back to work!  I am even slacking on taking pictures as I don't think I took more than a couple on Christmas Eve, Christmas, or New Year's Eve.  New Year's Eve was pretty funny.  We spent it with Kelly and Ted and went to party down the street in "waves".  Kelly and I were at the party until just before midnight and Kevin and Ted took the late shift.  It is said that what you are doing at midnight is indicative of how your year will be.  Kevin and I were trying to get Amelia to go back to sleep.  Uh oh. 

See below for some pictures from the Ziesemer Christmas and some videos of Amelia sitting, attempting to crawl, and talking.
