Louis was really excited about staying up till midnight to watch the ball drop. He nearly made it last year before falling asleep right before midnight. We took a trip over to the mall so he could pick out some new bed sheets for his new bed. It was going to be his first night in Leah's room, now Leah and Louis' room. While at the mall he asked if we could go over to Ikea. We stopped there for some frozen yogurt. He kept asking to go upstairs to look at their bed (Kura bed from Ikea) but the store was closing soon. He also likes to walk around and look at all the room set-ups.
After hitting the mall we headed home for dinner and to celebrate together. Leah and Gabriel were wired the entire night. Dancing, running around, playing while Louis was more lowkey, relaxing mostly. He did ask to watch his favorite videos and listen to his favorite songs of 2012. The top one being Psy's Gangnam Style. Other two faves are both of the same song--Somebody That I Used To Know.

Around 11 or so Louis started to drift off. He made me promise to keep him awake. Every few minutes I'd yell out how many minutes till we started to countdown the ball dropping in Times Square. It did the trick. He managed to keep himself awake.
The kids were happy to get up and count down together.
Shortly after Louis went off to his new bed. We didn't even get a chance to put his sheets on the bed.
