In case you
were wondering what’s new with the Donohoe’s:
Nolan
Age: 5
This Year I: started Kindergarten! I am learning
lots of new things – how to read, counting money, making patterns, and more! My
favorite things at school are math stations, PE, and art.
My Favorite Things Are: building things with Lego’s, playing
board/card games, reading books by myself (easy ones), playing baseball, and
playing with Boomer.
Favorite Memory of 2014: going to Busch Gardens and Water
Country. I love going on the roller coasters and water slides!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: playing
tee ball on a team and Summer break with lots of “not a school” nights.
Abby
Age: 3
This Year I: learned to ride my bike (with
training wheels), played countless hours of “tea party” and “doctor”,
discovered the wonder of Disney Junior, and became a big sister!
My Favorite Things Are: singing Frozen songs, playing with
blocks (and building “farms”), riding Meemaw’s horses, and playing outside.
Favorite Memory of 2014: becoming a big sister! And getting my
own room for the first time in my life!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: getting
spoiled since I am the only girl and middle child (which my mom can relate to).
Joey
Age: 0 (5 months)
This Year I: was born! My parents waited to find
out if I was a boy or girl until I was born. It was a fun surprise! They named
me Joseph Robert but call me Joey. I was 8 lb and 11 oz when I was born!
My Favorite Things Are: eating and sleeping (I am very good
at both).
Favorite Memory of 2014: coming home to my family. My brother
and sister (and mom and dad) are great – they love me very much and like to
make me laugh!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: Learning
new things like eating solid foods, walking, and playing with toys.
Katie
Age: younger than Jack
This Year I: turned the big 3-0, had a baby, moved
into a new house, and survived another year of teaching – including taking on a
new prep – AP Statistics! It has been a busy (but wonderful) year!
Favorite Memory of 2014: On July 2, we welcomed our newest
addition into the world. From the very beginning, Joey has been the best baby!
(don’t tell Nolan and Abby). He is a great sleeper and eater, and is generally
a very happy baby. He literally never cries. He smiles a ton and laughs and
“talks”, and just brings so much joy to our lives!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: getting
settled into our new home and life with 3 kids. Hopefully there won’t be as
many major life changes next year!
Jack
Age: Old enough
This Year I: enjoyed trips to Busch Gardens with
the family, went to several Nationals games, welcomed a new baby boy, and moved
into our new house. I am enjoying being a homeowner. It’s the first time in a
long time we’ve had a place to really call our own. I enjoy working on the yard
and finding projects to do. We are loving our house but have more to do to
“make it our own”. I am glad that all of the hours of dealing with the county
and permits are over! I am still working
at Morton’s and enjoy the challenges that business and working in sales bring
on a daily basis.
Favorite Memory of 2014: See above – all of those are on the
list!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: going to
Costa Rica with Katie in January.
Boomer (our
black lab)
Age: 7
This Year I: Slept a lot, ate a lot, and moved
into a new house. I’m not allowed to get on the new furniture and that makes me
really sad!
Favorite Memory of 2014: moving to my new house and checking
out all of the surroundings. I have my very own pond that I get to go swimming
in any time I want!
In 2015 I am Most Looking
Forward To: finding
new mischief to get into!
2014 was a very blessed year for our family. I
hope it was for yours too!
Merry Christmas!
Love, The Donohoe’s
