This New Year's Eve was probably one of the nicest that I have had in a long time. We gave up on going out for New Years a couple of years ago. Since then we usually end up at someone's house for a party. This year we went to my friend Jennifer's house. It was just the two couples, but we had a really great time. Peanut had a pretty late nap, so she was able to party on with us until 8:30 (her normal bed time is 7:00). I was able to lay her down to sleep without even a whimper. We actually stayed up to see the ball drop. I don't remember the last time I saw a new day in, so it was quite an accomplishment for me.
Peanut seems to be walking more and more. Today she was walking a lot, still not too far, but she is trying.
Her big thing lately has been feeding the two of us her food. Today Mr. T was the partner in a cracker caked with yogurt and baby slobber. I got to partake in a slobbery apple. Feeding your mom and dad is fun, but it is more fun getting to eat something, say an apple, at the same time. If we are both biting into it, well, that is cause for loud belly laughs.
We are getting ready for the big party at our house. I think I invited maybe 4 or 5 families over to eat either tacos or chili. We are not doing presents because we have enough toys already for her, and there is only so much room in the attic. We are going to have a rubber ducky themed party.
I did set up her 529 account and Upromise account. I don't think it will be enough to pay for all of her college, but it will certainly help.
Mr. T. is putting a bunch of my climbing equipment on eBay next week. If anyone is looking for some used climbing equipment, then we have some at a great deal. It is sad to see it go, and some of it I won't let him sell. We are getting rid of my trad gear and my crash pad. It is sad to see it go because I have so many good memories from climbing, but I am not that girl anymore. I haven't been that girl for a number of years now. Spending every weekend looking for a good crag is not a priority anymore. I don't even think I have any friends that climb still.
Tomorrow we start the new daycare. I am a little nervous that I will forget something or that peanut will be traumatized that I am dropping her off with complete strangers. I don't have to work tomorrow (RIP), so I can check in on her throughout the day.
