In addition to opening gifts, we took our traditional Christmas Day walk around the neighborhood. Miles was ready for the cold weather!
On December 26th, Brian drove us over to Uncle Seth and Aunt Carina's house bright and early, so Miles and I could hitch a ride with them to Ohio. We loaded up the van with three adults and four kids. It was the first time that all three Brownlee children were able to ride facing forward in their car seats. Big day!
Granner and Dee were glad to see us. Here's a nice shot of Miles with Dee:
Brian, along with the rest of the Meyers and Brownlees, joined us for New Year's Eve and Day. As soon as everyone arrived, we celebrated our Meyer family Christmas. It was a wild time! Everyone got into the spirit. There was cousin Jake and Uncle Nate:
There was "Explorer Cole" and "Princess Lydia:"
Granner just loved having her newest grand-babies with her!
Miles had a good time too, as you'll see in these photos. His favorite gift this year is the "Elmer Fudd" hat that Granner and Dee gave him. It's a classic!
Once all the excitement died down, Miles unfortunately came down with something . . . we think it is croup. He has had symptoms for almost a week now, but we think he's on the mend now. The drive home from Cincinnati wasn't easy, but we made it in one piece. We also think Miles might be starting to teethe, but thankfully he has his thumb to soothe him, especially for the long car ride.
We hope you all had a blessed Christmas and New Year. We still hope to mail out a Christmas/New Year's card by the beginning of next week, so look for us in the mail!Christ is Born! Glorify Him!
