2010, Came and Went!

So I know it's pretty much the middle of January, but I have been very busy with Alex going back to school and trying to return to life as usual after the holidays has been rough going this year. But Am very Happy to start a New Year! So many things to look forward to in 2011! So I will take a moment to remember some things from a great year in 2010!

January
We were excited to start the New Year knowing that there would be an addition to our family. We started potty training, and a year later still are!

We took Alex to the Aquarium for the first time. He loved all the fish and cool animals they have there. Of course Nemo was his favorite though.
And we had our first ultrasound! And found out we were having a baby girl!

March
We went up to see my parents in Lincoln City, Oregon. Alex had a blast going to do fun things and playing on the beach. His favorite part was when my dad found a crab. After that Alex wanted him to find one everytime we were down on the beach.

We celebrated Devin's Brith, My brithday and Brad's Birthday and I spent a few days back in the hospital for a blood clot in my lung. On my birthday, welcomed the newest member of the Octagon, baby Logan! Went up to Logan to see friends Britany & Deven for their daughter's 1st Birthday and took Alex to sugarhouse park for some fun in the creek! (Kind of confusing with all the overlapping names!)
