Goodbye 2008, Hello 2009

2009......WOW!
Seems like just yesterday it was the year 2000 and I was just graduating from high school. It's now 2009 and I'm a college graduate, happily married, great job, and have a new baby! What more could I ask for?
Jeremy and I have been married for almost 2 years (in March) but been together for 8 years. We'll both have been at our jobs for 3 years. Cooper will turn ONE this year. WOW! Seems like just yesterday I had him.
2009 is going to be a great year. Jeremy and I are in the process of looking into buying a new house. With Cooper we are busting at the seams. Actually we were busting at the seams BEFORE Cooper. It's just time. Not to mention we want to be in a good school district for when Cooper starts school. Baton Rouge is just not the place. We've actually found a neighborhood we like and a house plan. Now it's the not so fun part.....putting in an offer. How much do you offer, what do you ask for, blah blah blah. To be honest I wish I could skip that part and go straight to picking out colors/details. That's the fun part. Then we have the other not so fun part....selling our house. With selling our house comes cleaning the house. YUCK! I just can't get motivated. Feels like I clean one room and then something else gets dirty. Then I start another room and that room I cleaned already is dirty again. Very discouraging! But, we'll get it.... IF everything goes right and they accept the offer we put in and our house sells before our new house is built then we'll be moving in with Jeremy's brother. Not really looking forward to that. They have a 1 1/2 month old and we'll be coming in with a dog and a baby. REALLY STRESSFUL! But, hopefully everything will work out.
What can I say....let the fun begin. Bring it on 2009!

I love your new layout!!! Crazy how fast time goes, huh? I remember our parents saying stuff like that when I was little and thinking... "are you crazy? It's going to take forever before I'm an adult!"... and now here we are. Real live adults. I don't really feel that old. :) Praying for you and your family that you have a joyful, blessed 2009! Love you guys!
