What are your plans for New Year's Eve?

Oh I remember the days of the girls waking up so early. My oldest one we have to yanked out of bed, my youngest one (8) will wake up later if she goes to bed late. The restaurant will be our last splurge for a while - it seems like we have eaten out more these past two weeks with everyone on vacation. You will love the Wii!!! I hope you get it!

I looke forward to those days of sleeping in. I had a glimpse into the teenage years with our 4 year old the last week. He's a nightowl, and very grumpy when woken up. But the 18 monther goes to bed around 7 some nights. And is an early riser. Ugh...I hope they even out someday!

My oldest has never been a good sleeper and now she is a night owl. Now I know what my mom went through with my brother. My 8 year old use to be such a great one to go to sleep but we are having major tummy issues that we are trying to work through, so she can get a bit cranky!

Works for me!!!! Just make sure you don't drive, please be safe. Thanks for the response.

I was always the designated driver back in my single days. Thank you for being so responsible. I can only hope that everyone will be thinking responsibly tonite plus the rest of 2010. Hope you win whatever game you play!

I am very adament about not drinking and driving...I've already made plans to sleep on my friends couch :) Nice to see someone else who feels the same!

Thanks! PF Changs is always busy. This is the 3rd city we lived in where there was one and they are busy at lunch and dinner. They do have an online reservation system, so you can make reservations. They even send out a confirmation email with a reservation number.

Thanks for the tip, I didn't know that!

We started a tradition of doing Chinese the night before Thanksgiving, this past year. Gives me a break before I have to start cooking the turkey. We have a PF Changs but it is still too knew so the line is so long we haven't been in it yet. Enjoy your trip to San Francisco, this is one of the cities I would love to visit one day. Thanks for the response.

You are geting the snow we had this morning. Enjoy it! Nice and peaceful and somewhat quiet, my favorite! Thanks for the response.

thank you. yes it is pretty quiet out hopefuly it will stay like that for a while.

We are getting freezing rain right now. We are all cuddled in just waiting for the festivities to start on tv. Happy New Year to You!

Thanks Emvy! In my younger days I always went out and celebrated New Year's Eve, one time my brother wanted me to go to Times Square (New York City) with him and I said no way too too many people. Once my husband and I got together we started just going out to dinner alone or with friends. Once the kids came along we started spending them at home. I can still remember being pregnant with my oldest and telling my mom not to make plans or buy a new dress for New Year's because I had a funny feeling. Well, I was right - April was born at 8:47 p.m. We were waiting to move into our room and I heard the nurses toasting the New Year. Around 2 a.m. I finally got a Tuna sandwich for my dinner, LOL. I usually get dinners from the hibachi grill while my husband and oldest daughter go for the sushi. I hope you have a wonderful 2010! And thanks for the friend request!

Enjoy your evening - it sounds like a very peaceful one. Thank for the response.
