Happy New Year!!

This NYE was as about as low-key as they get! We had a quiet dinner with J+J and the kiddos (my in-laws swung by around 11:30pm), drank yummy wine, played board games and rang in the New Year with lots to look forward to. While 2010 was a good year, I know 2011 will be even better! Each year I come up with at least one ridiculous resolution that never comes to fruition. So, this year, my resolution is really not to have one.  I just want to live my life better, period. I think many of us strive for those unrealistic goals come January 1st... Why not do what you know you're capable of and concentrate on that? When I say, "live life better," I don't have one particular thing in mind. But, I think it all starts with your attitude. Looking at things with a positive attitude and letting the cards fall as they may is definitely something that I look forward to this year! So, here's to a kick ass 2011 filled with endless hopes, dreams and memories to be made!

Lucas, 6.5 months!!

{Introducing}

...our new little nephew, Lucas James Donahue Hobbs!!! I've been so curious to know what Julie was having and finally he's arrived, 5 days early! He was born yesterday, June 13th at 8:29pm, weighed 6lbs 10oz and was 19 inches long. He is SO cute!! I think he looks a lot like Eliza with the bright blue eyes, perfect little lips and cute button nose. His hair is a little darker and wavier than Eliza's was. (He had just had a bath in these pics) He has long fingers and toes and skinny little legs. He's a little congested and was making adorable little snorting sounds that made me laugh. SO cute :) Here's Eliza as a newborn He's perfect in every way and Julie and Jason couldn't be happier with their new little man. We missed Eliza's visit but saw pictures of her holding him, she's going to be a great big sister! I'll get those from Julie and post them.


Don't you just want to snuggle him?!

Big yawn!

Proud Auntie!

Jules and Lucas
