New Year's


Between my being pregnant and some health concerns with other various family members, it's been what feels like forever since we've been up to good ol' Hooper.

But never fear, we managed to get up there so ring in the New Year.

We put Ollie and Del to bed at normal time. But we let Lincoln and Ivan stay up until 10pm playing Mexican Train with the adults. They did really well too. I think Ivan even won a couple rounds.


At 10, we drank sparkling cider, and then everyone, including adults went to bed. Hey, when you have a newborn, you do what you've gotta do.

It was a New Year's miracle, all my older kids slept all the way through the night! They usually don't at my mom's. I don't know if they are just too excited to sleep or what, but it usually takes forever to get them calmed down and in bed, and then most of them are usually up at least once before morning. But this time, nada. Maybe we're starting a new trend for the new year, I sure hope so. Rue even slept reasonable well,,,for a baby.

New Year's Day we just hung out. It was fun. We played a little Guitar Hero with Uncle Tanner. Let's just say I am MUCH better at Dance Dance Revolution. I suck at guitar hero. :)



Aaron and Rue had a better idea. This is how they partied:
