2012 Comes to an End.

What a year we have had! Kayla is now 8 months old, and Isaac is one month into being 4 years old. This year has been so pack full of ups and downs, I am so excited to burst into 2013.
Kayla has reached many milestone in December, she is crawling, eating solids 3 times a day, doing baby sit-ups teaching herself to sit up on her own. She has said mum, dada, Aaay (I think its Isaac), hi, okay, yay. She plays with her musical toys, reaches up to things like she is trying to stand. She is just amazing us! She has also grown out of most of her 3-6 month clothes and is fitting into the smaller of her 6 month clothes. We are still working on a sleep schedule, but I really don't see a full nights sleep in the foreseeable future.
Isaac is starting to recognize letters. We were at Co-op the other day and he spelled it out and told me we were at co-op, he can also write I, S, A, H, W and the number 3. We are getting him slowly ready for kindergarten, which is probably going to happen this coming September, if he is ready.
The year brought us so many challenges.
> Bedrest
> Isaac's night terrors
> Pregnancy related infections an illnesses
> Pprom and preterm labour
> Infant illness
> 7 weeks stay in the NICU
> Kayla's Heart Murmur
> Car accident
> Job loss

But, we are coming into 2013 with a positive prospective and a happy healthy family. Its been a tough one, but we have had tougher, and we can only go up from here.

To healthy, love and happiness in 2013!
