christmas road trip to NM & TX

Here are some shots from Christmas. We spent 2 days in the car driving to Roswell, NM to visit ALL the aunt, uncles, cousins, and Gramma. We continued on to El Paso to visit another uncle, and Grambo and great-grandparents! It was loads of fun, thanks to everyone for hosting us!

11 Months!!

Micah will turn 1 on the 20th, and he has finally started to crawl like a normal baby (no military drag here!). He has quite the personality. He wakes up saying "no" over and over again. He can make ribbit noises, and finally gives kisses!
Here are the boys at the Portland Zoo...


By the end of it, Micah had passed out in the wagon.


Micah enjoys a drum circle in the backyard from time to time...
