Escaping the cold and snow
Grandma Dianne and Grandpa Don came to visit at the end of January. Weather here at the beach was cool that week, but it was better than the sub-zero weather that Minnesota was experiencing.

Camille loved watching football with Grandpa!

Catching-up...Thanksgiving, Christmas & Hawaii!
Wow, having 2 kids is draining...I haven't blogged for 3 months!
What did you miss? Well, Grandpa Don, Grandma Dianne, Auntie Stacy, Grandpa John and Cindy all came to visit and meet Camille throughout the month following her birth. Chad made a delicious Thanksgiving feast for us to enjoy with his Mom and Dad. Our days and nights were a blur with a newborn, but we're getting back on track now that we're back to work and we have a great nanny at home with Camille 3 days a week (I stay home the other days).
The next 2 big events in our life were Christmas and Hawaii!!
Connor spent the few months prior to Christmas convincing us (and Santa) that he has been a very good boy and he really, really, really wanted a little bike that he could pedal himself. It was nice having something to hold against him if he would misbehave. I absolutely threw out the whole "Santa is watching you" and "if you're naughty, you won't get any presents for Christmas" comments and they worked pretty well.
As it turns out, he DID get his bike...although it took him a very long time to realize it was right there in front of the tree...
Thanks to my boss for letting us stay in his amazing timeshare at the Mariott Ko Olina and thanks to our fabulous nanny (Chad's Mom), we were able to enjoy a family vacation this year...in Oahu of all places!
To our surprise, both kids did great on the long flight and we had such a fun time relaxing and enjoying the views. Mommy & Daddy even got the chance to ditch the kids for paddle boarding and dinner out. Connor had the best time of all - swimming for hours and hours each day. If only we could get his time share every year!!
