New Year's Eve was an early night for us. Maddie was having some tummy problems so when we finally got her to sleep at 10pm, Mommy and Daddy were exhausted and went to sleep as well. We wished each other a happy new year at the 2:30am feeding. Daddy went with Uncle Joel, Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Jean to the Blackhawks vs. Redwings game at Wrigley Field on New Year's Day while Aunt Julie, Grandma, Grandpa, Mommy and Maddie hung out at the house watching it on tv (much warmer inside!).

We're now back at home and getting back into our "normal" routine (which just means being in our house - we have no routine.) Grandma and Grandpa went to Florida and we are happy they are having fun but miss them. Maddie wears her "I love my Grandma" pjs in the photo above to send a big kiss to her Grandparents if they check this blog from the sunny balcony!

Tomorrow, Daddy returns to work and we begin the countdown to Vivian's arrival in the U.S. and Mommy's return to work. Vivian is our au pair from Sao Paolo, Brazil and will be arrive at our house on the 30th of January to stay with us for a year. We can't wait!
