As most of you know, once you have kids everything changes for New Years. I always laugh when people ask what my plans are for New Years. We could get a sitter, but the kids are still going to be up at their normal times. This year we decided we would let Andrew stay up until midnight if he wanted. Of course, he wanted to. We put on a movie for Andrew, then Mark and I played Monopoly. Don't be jealous of our wild New Year's Eve!! Andrew started to fade a little around 10:30. He snuggled next to me on the couch. He never fell asleep and then got a second wind of energy. We cut up some paper to throw in the air at midnight and he was super excited about that. We had so much fun staying up with Andrew!! After midnight he was ready to stay up. We had turned on one of the countdown shows so Andrew could watch the ball drop. Right after Mariah Carey came on and Andrew started a little dance party. We all went to bed around 12:45. Lucas slept through all of it. Andrew did sleep in a little, maybe an extra 30 minutes, the next day. He was a little grumpy on New Year's Day but it was worth the fun time we had.
