Being that it's a new year and all, I figured I would actually write a little. Things have been fairly crazy the last couple of weeks with holidays and weddings and such. We also finally weaned V from her pacifier, which took a little longer than I had hoped. However, she seems to be sleeping better at night without it, which makes all of us grateful.
We also decided to move down to Grand Rapids earlier than planned. It was getting too expensive to live so far away from Joe's work, our doctors, etc. We had hoped to buy a house this spring but decided just to rent for a few months longer and take our time looking around at where we want to buy. I am excited to be going back to the city and am glad that we will be 45 minutes closer to the hospital I'll be delivering at at the end of the month, especially since we're starting to get more snow now.
I have been thinking about making a list of goals that I would like to accomplish this year in different areas of my life. I will probably share them in another post, but one in particular I would like to accomplish is to do more crafty/creative things with Verity. She is getting to the age now where she is more interested in stuff like that and can listen to instructions better, so I have been reading up on blogs and got a book for Christmas that should give me some ideas. Hopefully I can do at least one activity a week with her. For Christmas we got her some coloring books and she has been enjoying that:
We haven't had any issues with her trying to color on something other than the paper...yet. :)
Well, I suppose I should be thinking about dinner. Happy New Year everyone!

Do you have an apartment already? When are you moving? Exciting! I am hopeful you will have better phone reception in your new place. :) I miss talking to you!
My friend Amanda is so good about doing creative things with her daughter. You should check out her blog: http://mandilu.blogspot.com/
We do have an apartment. We will be moving in two weeks. I should have better reception then as we will be in an actual city instead of out in the country. :)
