You had one crazy year … I hope 2013 is a bit more restful (is that even possible?) At least you're back in Oregon and the baby is here and well, We've got to work on Isaac I guess! ; )

Happy New Year! Wishing you the best of everything! You rock!

You reminded me - I have Samuel's hat, which hopefully still fits. I just need to sew the ears onto it. Thanks for the reminder.

Great year. It sounds like 2012 was great. It is amazing to me how Isaac looks so chubby and babish at the beginning of the year and so grown up and big brother-ish toward the end. Still time to have #4 in 2013!

Here's wishing you lots of rest and less Aquaphor in 2013, too!

Looks like a good year. <3

I love the pic of Samuel in the costume! (actually I like all the pics but that one is especially cute)
