Christmas Letter

Dear friends,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! We hope you are doing well and wanted to take this opportunity to give you an update on what we’ve been up to.
At the end of each year, I tell myself, “Wow, this year has gone by really fast!” It is even truer this year than the previous ones. So much can happen and change in just one year.
Last Christmas, Logan and Taylor were almost 5 months and were barely starting to roll over, in Maryland. This Christmas, they’ll be nearly 17 months and will probably be running around the Christmas tree all day. They have both changed and grown so much this year. They’re not our little babies anymore, they’re our little boys. Soon they’ll be our big boys.
Billy is continuing his rotations in Iowa. He was gone in Oklahoma for a month, and then in Florida for a month. For him, time went by really slowly while he was apart from his amazing wife and wonderful children. He couldn’t have been happier to be reunited to us after 2 long months. (We were very happy to see him, too!) He has also been truly blessed to interview in multiple places all over the country for his anesthesiology residency.
I have equally been blessed to stay at home to raise our children, but I was very relieved and happy to be able to stay with my parents for 2 months while Billy was away. We try hard to do fun and different activities every day, but I’ll be the first to admit that Iowa does not have a whole lot to offer. So we try to get creative and spend a lot of time hanging out with friends.
In 2011, we will find out where Billy matched for residency. It could be anywhere, and we should be there for the next 4 years. A few months later, on May 29, we will welcome our 3rd child. We have not found out the sex of the baby, but we will keep you updated. Right around the same time, Billy will graduate from Medical School and will officially be Doctor William J. Beeston. Shortly after graduation, we will be moving to a new house, in a different state. Needless to say, it will be an eventful year…
We hope you hear from you soon,
The Beeston Family
