I did it. Well, actually I completed the 365 day challenge yesterday since there is an extra day in 2012 due to a leap year but I just considered that a bonus day in case I happened to miss a day. I didn't though! Here's the last picture of the year:



Charley and her cousins all holding their Cabbage Patch Kids and watching Rockin' New Years Eve. It's crazy to see how big she is on the last day of the year compared to the wee little thing she was on the first day of the year.

I think I'll keep this going because I enjoyed it. I may not be as dilligent, but I really like forcing myself to have my camera out at all times because the babe grows and changes so much at this age.

On to the next year!

I checked out the progress on our house this evening and discovered our tubs and showers had been installed. I am so darn excited for this big jetted tub!

I have a million pictures from today. Charley was especially photogenic, but this one was definitely my favorite.

Charley found her favorite section of Lowe's tonight: the singing, dancing, obnoxious holiday stuffed animals. (Truthfully she was afraid of them once I turned them on.)
