We hosted a little NY Eve get together at our house for our friends and kiddos. We did the "countdown" at 8:30 complete w/ sparkling apple juice! We watched the IU game, so some of the kiddos wore their IU gear. Ellie and Claire in their matching cheerleader outfits were adorbs!
Here are some pics:

Happy New Year
1. What did you do in 2011 that you’d never done before?
Since I was 14 years old, I have collected a paycheck. In 2011, I did not! I did, however, start 2 businesses.
2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I'm really not into resolutions, so I can't remember if I made any last year, but this year my resolution is to FILTER. Basically I just want to work on keeping some things to myself... and to work on cursing :)
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Yes, MYSELF :) Cousin Carra. Friends: Jody, Alana and Kristina!
4. Did anyone close to you die?
I wasn't really close to him per say, but my friend Dana's baby died at 5 weeks. UGH
5. What countries did you visit?
Being pregnant and having a newborn in 2011 did not pave the way for much traveling! But we did go to Phoenix...
6. What would you like to have in 2012 that you lacked in 2011?
I would like to have my hormones back to normal at some point. Since I have been pregnant or breastfeeding NON STOP since November 2008!
7. What dates from 2011 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
The day Evelyn was born, of course! And the day we moved into this house...
.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?

Here We Go, by the Fresh Beat Band. Baby, by Justin Bieber. Take On Me, by A-Ha.
15. Compared to this time last year, are you:
– happier or sadder? Happier. Babies on the outside of the body work better for me.

23. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Lunch w/ Matt, Dinner w/ family. 35!
24. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
It really was a good year, so I can't think of anything really? Except maybe magically getting skinny after Evelyn was born.
25. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2011?
MuMu
26. What kept you sane?
Husband, friends, iPhone, Facebook.
27. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2011.
I believe that children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty the posses insiiiiide.
