Time to ring in the New Year!

So another year draws to a close. I can't speak for AJ, but this has been one of the best years of my life. I'm glad everyone is happy and healthy. We had a wonderful time with Grammy and Papa Joe in Columbus and all of D's aunts and uncles (see pictures below). Diego received so many wonderful Christmas gifts from you all, thank you so much. As for us, we got our X-mas gift back in July. Diego is growing so much, it is so hard to believe that he is going to be 6 months old in less than 2 weeks. He is eating like a champ now, loves peaches and carrots. He has mastered the consonants "G" and "D" so we are treated to a round of gagagaga and dadadada every morning. Now if he would only master "M" so he can quit calling me "AWH". And, all I want for Christmas is for his pesky teeth to finally break through (or maybe I don't want that, which is worse irritability in the baby or irritability in the nursing mother who suddenly becomes a chew toy?).

We aren't planning on doing much for New Years eve and I will post pictures of that later. Here's wishing everyone a happy and healthy and prosperous 2009!
