Over the River and Through the Woods (and Up 95)...

It's been awhile... We just got back from our trip up to Plymouth, MA to see my family. Susan & Ryan also came up from PA, so all of us were together and got to finally meet the little Milo, newest member of our family. The kids were so excited to see their baby cousin and we caught a glimpse of how they will be with our new baby - both of them were so sweet with him. We had a really fun time, staying in a nearby apartment in the same complex as Mom lives, and spending lots of time hanging out, having another Christmas together, and of course eating. I've posted lots of pictures - hopefully not TOO obnoxious. We just got a lot of fun ones!

Grammy with her three grandchildren!

The three cousins. Hard to get them to all three look at the camera!

Skyla and her little guy - she loves helping to take care of him.

Christmas! Kind of crazy with so many people but lots of fun of course.

This is before the room got completely trashed with wrapping paper. :-)


The gang's all here - Ryan & Susan, Erin and Mom

We all fought over holding Milo whenever he was around. Such a little snuggler!

Skyla & Brody watching Donald Duck with Uncle Mike.

A grat view of his little face - isn't he a sweetie?

Skyla practicing her mommy skills.

I know everyone is shocked that the Belle princess dress made the trip up to MA to show everyone... along with the accessories.

On our last night we made an outing to a Japanese hibachi steakhouse. The kids loved the eating part, but were not huge fan of the big flames!

Three generations - Skyla looks mildly terrified of the flames that could come at any moment!

Brody figured out in his own way how to use the chopsticks like a champ. Of course our vegetarian ate mostly rice and eggs.

Our last night at Grammy's - Skyla & Grammy reading one last book to hold them over till February.
