Here are some of our highlights:
- Luke arrived in February! :)
- Meredith became a big sister.
- Meredith moved to a big bed (and bedroom), leaving Luke to use her old crib.
- I hit the big 3-0!
- Meredith got her first professional haircut.
- Meredith is potty trained (with the exception of some naps and nighttime).
- Meredith now has all of her baby teeth.
- Luke has 4 teeth!
- We took the kids on a few short/mini-vacation trips: Fon du Lac Farm Park in East Peoria and Curtis Apple Orchard in Champaign.
- Luke ended the year by beginning to finally crawl on 12/13, then began pulling up on Christmas morning (on top of one of his gifts).
- The Prentice's have entered the 21st century. Yes, that's right...we purchased smart phones about a month ago. It was a sign when both of my parents got one and knew more about them than I did.
I looked back at my blog post from this time last year and I can see that Chad and I didn't fully stick to our new year's resolutions. I wanted to eliminate soda completely from my diet. I now drink tea everyday to get my caffeine fix, but will occasionally have Sprite when eating out or very rarely Mountain Dew. Not too shabby for a soda-lover like myself. Chad wanted to read more and run more. We are getting rid of Direct TV at the beginning of the year (both as cost-savings and as a way to break a bad habit of watching too much), so maybe he will read more this year.
I can't wait to see all that 2014 has in store for our family.
