Holiday Recap

We had quite the unusual holiday experience this year with all the snow. Unfortunately many of our family gatherings were cancelled due to poor road conditions and we had one nasty stomach flu that attempted to ruin everyone's fun. In the end, it all worked out well and we were able to make the most of all the days. I hope you all had a great holiday season and Happy New Year!

Aidan was struck with a stomach virus around 1am and was over the toilet every 15-30 minutes all night. Fortunately he was able to feel well for a few minutes while we opened presents.

Maeve loves her Kai Lan toys! Maeve had a great first Christmas, though like most 2 year-olds, she didn't quite get the whole experience.

The boys and their cousins celebrating as the ball dropped. This is the most exciting night of their year. They absolutely love New Year's and the thought of staying up until midnight is such a thrill. We are always regretting it in the morning, but it is worth it for one night!
