Our Happy Holidays







This holiday was the beginning of many fun Christmas' to come. It was Caelan's First Christmas. He liked his gifts but really got excited about the crinkley colorful paper. We spent Christmas in DC then flew back to Chicago for a stay at my parents house. We had such a great time. Went to a friend's wedding, had a family Christmas, saw many friends and spent time with family. Caelan was really excited to spend time with his cousins, Moshe, Ty and Jaedyn, Megan, Emily and Tyler, and newest cousin Nolan David.
Grandma Betty and Aunt Robin drove out from Davenport for a visit, we had a lot of fun!
While at Grandma and Papa's house Caelan decided it was time to try cereal, it was a momentous event. He didn't particularly like it the first time, but now in week two of our road to solids he is eating it like a champ.
Since we've been home we have had fun with new friends in the two mom's group we belong to. And Shawn is sure he has little fishing buddy.

Great pictures Gina! Pretty good for the first try. Mark is working on a web page. It is not finished but if you want to see it so far it is konprinting.com/boys.

We think you should take his picture with every memorial, museum, etc. and of course the White House in the background. It would be like Where's Waldo, only this would be "Where's Caelan" and then people could win a prize for the correct guess? Oh... no? Well then... Cute green hat.. wonder who made it? Love the red ones too.

Great Pics Gina. He is adorable, can not believe he is already so big (5months)? Thanks for posting the cousin pics too they are all getting so big. How do you like it there. Looks like you are enjoying yourself.

Love, your cousin Cara
