Last Post of 2011!!!

We made it through our first Christmas as a family of three, we enjoyed all the company, I got to meet two of my 2nd cousins that were born on October 31st, they are super sweet! We really enjoyed spending time with our family the past couple weeks!

WOW..What a blessed year we have had!

First I want to say that it has been such an amazing year for the Buchholz family! Here are just some of the highlights--

January- Still following Dave Ramsey paid off a lot of our debt and are now living a little better rather then spending what we didn't have :)

February- Thinking about upgrading on a house... and some ideas for change in our home now :)

March- Hershie had a safe surgery, and we found out we were expecting :)

April- was a slow month..but I know I was having a lot of morning sickness so it was probably for the best!

May- Blakely Faith joined the world on May 4th!!-- We also took a girls weekend to Cali. to see my cousin and celebrate her baby shower!

June- Well I can tell you this month was extremely busy- I went to camp for a week and it was amazing! Celebrated Dan's 26th Birthday, and there is probably something I am missing but I didn't post anything so it's hard to say :)

July- Of course the 4th of July- 1st one we have celebrated in town in the last 3 years! I was finishing up summer courses, We bought a car for Dan, Natalie Miller and Griffin Wallace join the world!

August- Did our birthing classes, painted Kypton's room

September- Mom's 50th birthday, Baby shower's, and a scare that Kypton was on his way...a little to early!

October- We demolished the bathroom, Mom and Dads anniversary, Dan and I's 2nd anniversary, New dresser, finishing Kypton's room, Brodie Burns and Maverick Opp joined the world!

November- Bathroom finished, House cleaned/organized, KYPTON ARRIVED, Kypton's first Thanksgiving!

December- Celebrated my 26th Birthday, and enjoying being home with my 1st child, Kypton's first Christmas!

It's amazing how much can be fit into one year! The blessing on birthday's, anniversaries, and the birth of healthy babies, it's all from the Lord, and he has been so gracious this past year!

This past month home has been so amazing, I'm not ready to go back, as we are still working out the details for that. We are also still waiting to here on Dan's job, we should know more by next Friday the regional manager thought anyway. I really hate the waiting game but I know in the end it will all be worth it. I have a week left of maternity leave which means I really need to think about what I want and Dan and I really need to seriously talk it over, which I think in our minds we both want me to stay home but there is the voice that really wants the extra money every month. Time is running out though tick, tock, tick, tock.... Anyway-Kypton is doing great, he is changing everyday, although I don't know how much he weighs we are up to 5 ounces every 3.5-4 hours. Last night was the first REALLY GOOD night of sleep. He went from 11-5! I can't even believe how fast he is changing and growing into a little boy instead of a baby, you will probably here me say that a lot this next year! I just love him and want to hold him all the time but I started reading a book on Healthy Sleep Habits and well I have to let him sleep in the quiet! As far as healing and energy, well I think I am back to "normal" I had my 6 week check up today and everything is back in place, although I haven't lost as much as I was hoping, I got the okay to workout again, so hopefully the last little bit will now melt away! It was good to hear that everything has healed though, I thought it was all dandy but it's always good to have piece of mind from a professional! I think that is all the news we have for everyone at this point, we hope everyone had a blessed holiday and are ready for 2012, have fun and be safe, and we will post NEXT YEAR!!

Love the Buchholz Family!
