Palm Desert

We had a great escape down to Palm Desert.  We were told on Christmas day that we would not be able to travel due to Katie's RSV.  We put Christmas away, cleaned, organized, and headed to Katie's follow up appointment expecting to hear again that we should stay home.  Our pediatrician said that Katie sounded GREAT and a little sunshine might be good for all of us.  So...we called the airlines and got tickets on the next flight out of town!  The weather was "cool" for Palm Desert, but perfect for us.  We walked, worked out, played in the hot tub, had yummy meals, drank wine, golfed, read books, and enjoyed time with Ka and Bapa.  Both kids started the trip off with RSV and Andy was still crawling with his boot.  We came home with two healthy kids and a running Andy!  Hooray!

Every night, Andy read with his Bapa (thanks Baps!).  Andy's current favorite book is "Caps for Sale"

Katie now is a pro solids eater.  Thanks Ka for all of your help feeding our Katie girl

Happy New Year!  Only Kyle made it until midnight - the rest of us celebrated with New York and London : )

More books...

Hey Mama : )

Andy LOVED his golf cart rides

Once Andy was on his feet, he re-discovered his love for golf.  He would line up the balls and hit them...over and over.

So proud

And so not into getting his picture taken

Showing off his boot

And the new habit he picked up - nice Andy

Sadly, I didn't get any pictures with Ka.  She was so wonderful and hands-on.  Thank you for helping me enjoy some time away and for co-parenting with me while Kyle was back home.  We love you!
