Our one and only vacation in 2009 was a fantastically relaxing two week trip home to the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Oh, how I miss the gray, cloudy skies and the green, green, green everywhere you look! We spent lots of time outside hauling tree branches, taking lots and lots of wheelbarrow rides, jumping off tree stumps, stepping on mole hills, and visiting the three black sheep next door to my mom's house.
My baby's new favorite game is playing "where is...[mama's eye, ear, nose, arm...the bunny rabbit, zebra, birdie, goldfish]." His vocabulary virtually exploded in the two weeks we were gone. The most often uttered word while in the Seattle area: Great Gran (pronounced goo-tee). Take a listen!

Playing with Auntie Amber and my baby's new favorite toy: Great Gran's walker
My two brothers had to work Christmas (in Las Vegas and Grand Rapids), so we didn't get to see them or their families. However, there were four packages from out of town to open, including the new set of dishes/silverware featured below. My baby won't have to eat off my plate any more!
Thank you everyone for all the thoughtful gifts! We love you all!!
