Even though my bedtime is 6:30, I thought it was only fair that I stay up and ring in the New Year with everyone else....
I played with my Uncle Jody and his fiancee, Samantha, and chatted it up with Grandma and Grandaddy.
I accomplished one of my goals before 2008 was even over: I started holding my bottle (well, I can do it if it's not too heavy).... But I couldn't quite make it 'til midnight. The BOOM BOOM of the fireweorks woke me up every now and then, and by 8:30, I was watching my eyelids and wasn't even thinking about watching some ball drop.
To kick off 2009, I went to Manning with Mom and Dad. We saw Mimi and Gramps and I got to try out something called a walker. My own wheels!
We watched a football game but our team was losing so I decided to just go to sleep.
I am excited about 2009 and the adventures ahead...crawling, my first steps, first words, first tooth, and who knows what else I will be doing...I say bring it on! -maddox
