Boy 2008 quite the year! I'm going to do my best to recall some of the years highlights.
January: Tony was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps. We were alternating staying with my parents and in-laws in Ohio waiting for our house to sell. It actually sold towards the end of January.
February: I celebrated my 27th birthday. This was a big month for Hannah, she started taking dance classes and pooping on the big girl potty. We also closed on our house in North Carolina and officially moved to Ohio on the 22nd.
March: Kind of a slow month for us. Alex finally got his first haircut, getting rid of the mullet that he was sporting. Our niece Leah was also born in March.
April: I found Tonya's blog and contacted her. We ended up driving to Michigan for a little party and met some wonderful families.
May: I finally finished my degree!!!! Hannah had her dance recital.
June: Quite a busy month for us. We went to the LPA convention, while we were there Tony got a job!!! He also bought a motorcycle towards the end of the month. We went on a family vacation to the OBX, where Alex learned to "swim" by himself. My credit card was stolen.
July: Hannah turned 4! Hubs and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary. Hubs "moved" to Columbus and started his job. We started the LONG process of house hunting.
August: Another slow month. We spent a lot of time at my in-laws swimming. We did some major house hunting and I was adjusting to being a "single" parent.
September: Tony turned 28. My sister got engaged.
October: Alex turns 2!! Our offer was accepted on the house. We had another party up at Tonya's and met the Hedgers. We celebrated my Grandparents 60th anniversary.
November: There was a lot of waiting on the house. We finally closed on the 24th, and moved the weekend of the 28th.
December: Mostly spent unpacking and settling in our new house.

Congratulations on your BEAUTIFUL new home! My daughter Anne has stainless steela appliances and she usesPledge or some sort of aerosol furniture spray on them. They really do get fingerprinty and smudgy especially with little ones but that seems to get the job done.
Catie!
My goodness - you guys have been BUSY! You did pick a crazy time of year to move.
I love all of the pictures! The kids look adorable sitting on the stairs ... and you have already created a memory in your new home ... you can continue that picture on the stairs each year and watch the kids mature :0)
That sucks about the tree falling - but stringing popcorn for the tree sounds like fun, I forgot about that idea!
