Happy New Year, Baby Mozart

My how things have changed! This year, our family of four had a "quiet" night at home. Until around 11:30 when Lucy cried...and cried..and cried. Only this time, we discovered how to make her stop...Mozart.

Here is a photo of Lucy calming down next to an iPad which is playing Mozart for our little intellect. It is still playing now...seven hours later.

At midnight, Jason and I kissed each other, as well as our baby and dog. We are counting on 2012 to be as precious and fabulous as 2011, the best year of our lives.

And here is a photo of Miss Lucy ready to visit the Shapiro's new home in Vernon Hills two days ago. While she loved visiting the suburbs, she says she's more of a city girl for now.
