A New Year with Lots to Look Forward to!

First off, I have to say, I am rather ashamed to admit that I wasn't able to get any of my Christmas cards or new years letters out this year. :( Things are a LOT crazier with a 1 year old, moving around, and being over 22 weeks pregnant. So, of course, things didn't go as planned. Such is life.
So! I thought I would do a quick family update on here, and what we are looking forward to the most this year.
2011:
We moved back to Rexburg, Idaho, in January so Xander could start his Junior year at BYU-Idaho. We were greatly blessed to be able to house-sit for some Kansas of ours, who were serving a full-time mission in Sand Diego, CA. It was such an amazing blessing being there up to the end of June.
Xander applied, and was accepted, into the fast track program at BYUI. Which means he could now take classes from January to December. Thankfully this is allowing him to graduate almost 6 months earlier than we originally thought possible.
During this time, our sweet Alex was learning and growing like crazy! :) He learned to crawl and walk, and by Christmas was running around Grandma and Grandpa's house. He also learned how to say Dada and Mama, and even picked up on a few others words that are in his own language. He is such a joy in our lives, and we are loving every new day with him.
One of the most exciting things that happened in 2011 for us, was finding out mid-August that we were pregnant with our second baby! And then finding out after Thanksgiving that we were having another boy. After finding this out, and after much debate/discussion, it was decided that Alex and Mo would be staying at her parents until the baby arrives in April. While Xander would head back up to Rexburg until the beginning of April for classes.
So that is just a bit of what happened in 2011 with the Xander and Mo Brown family. We are now looking forward to a few awesome things set to happen in 2012!
2012:
Xander is starting his senior year of college, and is set to graduate this December! We couldn't be more excited and READY for this. We are also happy to be having our second little boy, due April 24th! Mo is just anxious for Xander to be home before then.
So, for now, those are the two things we are looking forward to in 2012. But, as this year continues, we will see what other wonderful things are in store! :)
