Call us crazy - we made the trek home to Michigan this year for Christmas with our 2 week-old and our 22 month-old. The flight to Michigan actually went pretty well. We arrived in Detroit and spend the first few days there with the Redmonds/Denjas. Here are a sampling of the pictures of our time with them.
Dad opens his birthday present - an Ipod touch.
Daddy and Kendall get ready to go sledding. 
Avery and Mateo - hard to believe just a few months separates them.
Gma and Gpa with all 8 grandkids.
The Denjas.
Cousins. 
On December 26 we headed to Coldwater for a brief visit with the Losinski families and then spent the remaining time with the Masons.
It was a very busy trip. The girls did remarkably well! They slept great and no one got sick (I think this is a first for us). The last few days were hard - maybe a result of too much time, stress, or postpartum. Either way, I was SO glad to be home. New Years Eve was a bit of a let down. I was in bed at 10:30 and for the first time since we started dating (15 years ago) I missed kissing Aaron on New Years Eve. I guess having 2 kids changes things in more ways than you realize. Only now do I feel like we are able to settle into our new lives as a family of four. It will take some getting used to and has been harder on Aaron and I than I thought. But, we continue to be blessed by two beautiful girls that are healthy and happy. I am looking forward to 2011.
