Happy New Year

Happy New Year!!!!

I hope every one's New Year is off to a Happy start and enjoying the delay in winter (b/c we know it will eventually come to New England). It's been a quiet start of the new year as Dan has returned to work since Evan's been home and I'm trying to get into some type of routine. Not successful yet, but hopefully will accomplish it in the the next couple of weeks.... only to have it changed I am sure.

Yesterday, my friend Laurie came down with her 8.5month old son Christopher and we went walking around the neighborhood... it was Evan's first walk in his stroller and it was a perfect day for it. And he really did enjoy the fresh air and the walk... but him to sleep and gave mommy some exercise. And today we ventured out to the mall. What a surreal experience to be amongst the many mommies with strollers... Evan liked the walking around, but didn't like it when I stopped to shop... needless to say, I didn't get to buy anything, but it was a good showing for his first trip to a public place...then after an hour, he get hungry and it was rapid time we needed to get home.

Tomorrow will mark yet another first for Evan and his parents... we are all traveling to NJ to visit Joe for his birthday. Is it too soon to travel 100+ miles with a 7.5wk year old infant... guess we'll find out :) We hope to get Evan used to traveling and show him as much of the world as we can in his lifetime.. and we are starting with NJ.

Time to feed the baby....
