Jackson Meets Aunt Pat - and Happy New Year!

Happy New Year - and goodbye to Aunt Pat! Every Christmas, my great aunt (Grammy's sister) comes to visit for a few weeks. Growing up we always looked forward to seeing Aunt Pat in December - it was the only time we saw her all year long (she comes all the way from Ohio). This year was very special because Jackson finally got to meet Aunt Pat! She's been watching him grow up via our blog, so it was neat for them to finally meet. We made several visits to see Grammy and Aunt Pat these past few weeks. We love you, Aunt Pat!

Grammy had knee replacement done right before Christmas - Jackson thought he'd show her how the bicycle works.
This is how we found Jackson waking up from his nap on New Year's Day. We've lowered his bed, so he's figured out how to peep through to see us. . .

Happy New Year! 2007 has been an exciting year and we are anxious to see what 2008 brings.
