Happy New Year to you all!! The past week has been filled with fun and family, some frustration but all in all, the end of 2008 wasn't too bad!

Lil' Buddy started on rice cereal-

Boug was excited about socks-

And I think the hub had more fun messing around with the Rose Petal Cottage after setting it up X-Mas night than Boug had with it on X-Mas-
