Happy New Year!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's Eve celebration! Here's how our night went...

8:00pm Max is finally asleep
9:00pm Kira is finally asleep

At which point, Dave and I settle in for a festive evening of watching the Dexter disc we've had from Netflix for weeks...when...

10:45pm Kira comes stumbling out of the bedroom, doesn't want to be put back to bed, wants to be on the couch with us. Ok, off goes Dexter.

11:15pm Max, hearing his sisters voice, also decides it's time to be awake.

So, the four of us hang out on the couch...eating a little popcorn and watching the New Year's festivities on TV. At one point, Kira starts yelling "I don't like it, I don't like it!!!" during the Jonas Brothers performance(that's my girl!). We're all a little frightened by Dick Clark's appearance. A guy that old just shouldn't look like that.

12:00am We do the countdown...and yell Happy New Year! The kids look confused. Kira wants to see the ball drop...over and over again. Thank goodness for Tivo! :)

12:30am Kids are back in bed...a new year has begun.

Here's a couple of pictures from as we got closer to midnight...
