Happy Holidays!




We've had a great first holiday season together as a family of 3. Ben is, of course, too young to know what's going on, but he did a lot of visiting with family and friends and had a great time! We spent Christmas Eve Day with Erin and Mike (and Erin's family) in Fayette, then had Christmas Eve dinner with Nana and Grampie and GG & GG Wentzell in Manchester. Then, Christmas morning we went to Matt & Jessica's (see photo of Ben with arm around cousin Claire), and Christmas dinner at Nana & Grampie's. Phew. The next day we went to Sugarloaf to spend time with Jay's family~ Grammie and Grampa Phil and the Bronsons. It was a whirl-wind visit, but we got to take a walk in the snow and enjoy our family. We're a lucky bunch!!!

Ben did really well with most all of the visiting, but we could tell he was tired at the end of it all. When we got home from Sugarloaf he took two sizeable naps, and then slept (with a couple of wakings to eat) from 6pm-7am! He's catching up on his sleeping, as are Mum and Dad, though Dad is back at work for a couple of shifts already.

Thanks to everyone who hosted us and fed us and gave us gifts over the past several days. We had a really wonderful time.
