Happy New Year!!!


Rory's first New Year's Eve celebration was a snowy fun weekend at our friend Smooth's family house on a mountain in Jackson, NH. Its the perfect place to hang out with wonderful friends, play games, go sledding or skiing or snowshoeing or some days all 3. Cooper loves to run free through the snow and to chase people down the hill in the yard as they sled down. As you can see from the photo above, Rory had a great time too. Some quality time with Aunties Smooth, Michelle, Em, Court and Heather and some play time with little friends Ryan and Jack was the best way to start his first New Year!! Hope everyone else had a fun and safe holiday.


I'm totally loving our new Nordic Cab. Rory is snug as a bug in there and usually goes right to sleep when we start skiing. We've used the cab 3 or 4 times already and the snow is only just beginning.


Mama Bev giving the new x-country skiis their first workout in NH.


Rory all bundled up in the Nordic Cab pulk sled. If its cold, we tuck a warm sleeping bag around him too and then he's supre cozy in there. It actually looks so comfy in there that I sort of wish they made them in adult sizes. Then I could have Bev pull me around when I got tired. :)


Rory's first big accomplishment of 2010...Roly Poly. He rolled over for the first time on New Years Day up in Jackson. I had him playing on his tummy on the floor and I turned away to tend the fire for a minute and when I turned back, he was on his back looking thoroughly shocked and amazed at the sudden change of scenery. Then, he got a big, proud smile on his face when he realized what he had done. It was priceless. He did it again a few times that morning, and had done it 4 or 5 times since then. Its so amazing to watch them learn and figure out the world around them and what they can do in it.
