today is 12/30/8 and one of my new years resolutions is actually to take up something, which is blogging!  my family is far away and i want to be able to share our day to day happenings with them so they can feel more close at home.  im going to try to commit to once a week blogging as i have no time to even read a book, but this is important to me so i will try:)  carter is getting so big so i want to be able to capture and share all of his fun and amazing moments while growing up.
