What we have been doing in 2014

Well, I think we finally recovered from Christmas travels! I wasn't really sure we would! LOL! Traveling has now become an adventure in itself!! With 2 kids it is interesting!! I will say though, our two boys did wonderfully! I couldn't have asked for better behaved children. I think they like traveling, especially when they get to see those they love and miss the most. :)

So, January...

Other than trying to get back on a schedule, we have been hanging around the house mostly. Momma and Ethan did travel back to Jackson, MS to visit our uncle BOBO who is in the hospital but, it was a beautiful trip and we were fortunate to see a lot of family we haven't seen in a while.

Ethan has been eating more solids and Graham is conquering the potty plus, Jon has been building benches for the property from crates, really cool! Oh, and Mandy has been doing laundry ;) We have been, unfortunately saying goodbye to our close close friends, Peter, Julie, Asger & Nora. They are moving back to Denmark this Thursday and we are devastated! Although we know it will be a great opportunity, we will miss them terribly!!!!!

All in all we are doing well. Ethan will be 6 months this week, get ready for that picture. And we are excited about all the trips we have planned for the next 6 months. We look forward to seeing you all again! Stay warm, hugs and kisses!!

Christmas shots!

happy holidays to all! Between driving, dealing with sick kids and trying to sleep, we didn't get a lot of pictures. But we did get a few wonderful shots. Plus, on the 25th, Ethan turned 5 months! We had a merry time and can't wait for more! Great seeing everyone! We love and miss you all!!
