Indiana visit

Kate made a pre-Christmas visit to her mom's in Indianapolis so we all got to meet Ruby Stokes for the first time!  You can see Miller is hitting on her already.  "Hey baby."  And Hollin is like, "Dude, you just met her."
These babies were born within 3 weeks of each other. 

Reunited and it feels so good! I wish I'd had a video camera to capture these two meeting again after 6 months.  They jumped and screamed and squealed! They are peas in a pod, partners in crime. 

Liz Hahn hosted a small reunion for those of us that were visiting and live close.  It was amazing to see everyone and for all the babies and big kids to play.  I felt so lucky holding some of these ladies' babies.
Rachel's quote was the best.  When she got home, Shawn said "was it just like old times?" And Rachel replied....pause..."No.  No it wasn't."

Then we headed north!

Since Teddy has bought Ohio Earth food, we visited Topeka more in November and December than we did total last year. That's fine with me.  We love to see Ninie and Pappy.

McCartney, Teddy and Miller are all asleep on the way home. :)
