2008 was such an intense year for me...LOTS of ups and downs. What a roller coaster ride it has been! I thought my pregnancy would forever stay what I'll remember from 2008 with all the hard times I went through...but you know what, now I just remember the birth of my incredibly beautiful baby girl Anaïs. I am so thankful to have her be a part of our family, she brought us even closer than we were before!
When I think back on 2008, I do remember some not so fun times, but I became a stronger and better person by getting through them.
For me, 2008 has 3 highlights and here they are:
Jeff: my incredible husband and best friend. He is the love of my life and I am so lucky to have him. So many people spend a lifetime hoping to get even a moment of the kind of love we have for each other and I never take that for granted! With him by my side I feel like there is nothing I can't do. He is ALWAYS there for me, no matter what I need and he makes me feel like I am the queen of his world. I love him so much.
Samantha: My first born princess...I still can't believe how fast she's growing up!! I love this girl so much it hurts!! She is such a smart little girl and amazes me everyday. She has such a good heart and ALWAYS thinks of others, I am so proud of her for that!
Anaïs: my baby girl! She is my hero! Seriously, how can such a young baby have taught me so much already? I have become such a better person thanks to her. What strikes me the most about her is how happy she is ALL THE TIME! She brings so much joy to our lives! I love her in such a special way and I feel so lucky to be her mom.
Once again, Happy New Year to everyone out there!

Isn't amazing how far you can come in a year and how much you can endure! Your girls are adorable - and both are growing up so quickly! I love the chocolate post below - the things kids say are great! I can't wait for caden to start talking in language I can understand - I'm sure he will come up with some good ones!
