Happy New Year Wishes!

I hope everyone had a great holiday this year and are looking forward to a great 2010.  I know Ben had a terrific first holiday season.  He got lots of attention (and gifts) from all his friends and family and loved every second of it.  Last night for New Year's eve he even tried staying up to midnight!   He somehow must have known that he was supposed to say up...  he didn't quite make it to midnight, but he finally knocked out at almost 11PM.  He had his party hat on and just did not want to go to sleep!

Fortunately he let us sleep in a little this morning though..

So for the new year, Ben thought that he would impart some of his own new years wisdom that hopefully everyone can apply in 2010.
.
1. How you get something done isn't as important as getting it done.

Ben finishes his sweet potatoes every time...  even if half of it ends up on his face and bib.

2. Its not what you're doing that matters, but what you look like while you're doing it.

Sucking on a pacifier might not be the coolest thing, but Ben always looks cool doing it.

3. Have a goal in mind, and keep at it...

You might not succeed at first, or not even be sure what to do once you get there...

But try hard enough and you will achieve happiness!

(I never thought we could have so much fun with a $3 balloon!)

 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
