We had a great trip to MN over Christmas this year. Stuey had lots of time to play with friends and family. The top picture is him and his friend Molly Hockett. This is the best shot I could get before they scattered! They had fun playing together, wish they could do it more often!
This was the first year Stuey had the joy of opening his own gifts (with a little help from Grandma, of course!). He has lots of new toys and books to play with...and some much more chatty (aka: louder!) toys than he had before. Hmm...how did that happen? : ) Also, had to add in the family shot in front of the stockings because we're all actually looking at the camera! Amazing!
Stuey missed the major gift-opening extravaganza at great Grandma and Grandpa Smith's house again this year. His 7:00 bedtime cuts into those party animals' tradition. The picture above is about the time I was trying to shake some of the sleepy-whining out so we could at least make it to the family photo!
Really though, he did amazing with all the new people and places this trip. We did a mini-roadtrip the first few days in MN in some areas surrounding Minneapolis/St. Paul. We had the pleasure of staying with some of my cousins: Mandy and Chad in Chaska where Stuey got to play with his second cousins? Laila, Abigail and Lydia (see Stuey and Laila having dualing breakfasts above!) and with BJ and Stef (pre-Carson era!) in Red Wing. It was lovely to spend time with everyone!
