Well... we made it. Through our first holiday season as a full blown family. This past weekend we went up to Crivitz to visit Grandpa and Grandma Sherman and Auntie Megan and Uncle Jeremy. Oh, and Uncle Sam too (dog, not the government).
Layla was showered w/ more gifts... as you'll see from the pictures, we pretty much needed a semi to get all of her things home. Santa came to Crivitz (Grandpa and Grandma Sherman and Jeremy and Megan) and brought her this awesome pink chair. She loves it. Hangs out in it just like Ice Man hangs out in his recliner. She got lots and lots of toys from Auntie Megan and Uncle Jeremy. I think so far her favorite is her little lullaby glow bug. She also got her very first Mother Goose Rhymes book from Grandma and she LOVES it. She says a BIG thank you to the Crivitz Santa. ;)
As you'll see from the pics, our time up North was very enjoyable. Layla even watched a little football on the floor w/dad. And, the picture of her and Hudson is on New Year's Day... they both had a hangover as they had stuck out the night before to go to Kau's party. I guess it got just a little bit crazy.
Layla has also learned from the Ice Man to nap like a champ... as you'll see from the two of them in the picture napping together. Thankfully, the chair had arms and Ice is a pretty stable nappers. So, no one was dropped and no one fell down.
Jake's first day back at work is tomorrow. :( I think he's pretty sad. Layla's going to miss hanging out w/him everyday and I think Jake's gonna miss having that little stinker around all the time. It sure is hard to have to be a responsible working parent. Layla starts daycare at the Sycamore Tree on Monday. We went in today to let her meet her teachers and play w/some new friends. She did very very well. Jake and I took a tour of the place (again) while Layla got aquainted w/everyone. She didn't cry once. What a relief.
Happy 2008 to everyone!!!
