Well, this is incredibly overdue, but here's a little post about our trip to Ohio for Xmas. Besides getting to spend time with the family on the trip, I wanted to show Heather our family tradition: the "authentic" German Xmas with candles on the tree and celebrating on Xmas eve and everything. Also, it was the first time that Sabine got to meet Uncle John and her cousins, Anna, James, Katie and Christian. Heather and I also managed to squeeze in lunch with Kevin and Mark, two old friends from high school.I kinda wish that we could go there for Xmas right now, because Sabine is just so much more aware and fun now. And way less colicky. Oh, well. It was a little challenging with her at first, with the time change and not having all our stuff there, but we eventually got it under control.
We had a really good time and Sabine did really well on the airplane. Except when our flight was canceled and we had to wait in the airport for 6 hours. But, we got to spend an extra 2 days in Ohio, so that was nice.
The odd thing was that while we had mild weather in Ohio, Portland was hit with the worst snow storm in recent history. By the time we got back it had all melted, so we're not sure if the whole thing was just a hoax.
Sabine always loves bath time.
