We're Home!!

January was so full of travel - it was wonderful to have the opportunity to make all of our trips, but it is equally wonderful to be back home! After returning from San Francisco, we had 5 days to unpack, do laundry and pack again. We spent three nights in Tahoe with the Pedrottis and Callisons. 5 kids under the age of 5 was not stressful at all......well, maybe a little. But, it was also a lot of fun. Especially the night we hired a nanny and went out for dinner and to the casinos!


The "big" kids were going sledding one day, so Chris and I brought Aidric along and thought we might get a photo or two of him going down on the sled with one of us.


Aidric thought he'd rather have a nap.



If you haven't been to Tahoe, it is one of the most beautiful places in the world. Highly recommend it!!


All that "sledding" really wore him out!


After Tahoe, we headed to Southern California. Chris had to be in Palm Springs for work, so I stayed with his family for the rest of the week. As you all know, his cousin Grace is 4 weeks younger and seeing them together is always fun. This time, they took turns being the bully and stealing the toys. A little glimpse of what the future holds....

What perfect little angels...


Who look like they've had a few too many!




While we were in California, we celebrated Grandma Porras's birthday. Here is how Aidric felt about singing Happy Birthday!



Hmm, maybe he was still upset with his grandma for putting his cousin's girly, pink, "princess" bib on him earlier???
