I am going to start with a recap of our first holiday season with our baby. We spent 5 days in Eugene over Chirstmas with my mom and sister. Sawyer turned 6 months old on Christmas Eve and we celebrated by introducing him to a little taste of solid foods. Hani roasted him a sweet potato, and he seemed to really like it. Christmas day he was pretty cranky, very unlike him, but I think all the gifts and excitement overstimulated him. There was lots of snuggle time with grammie and we did get to make quite a few visits up to see Sawyer's great grandma. We also got to spend time with our friends Brian, Katrina, Tori, and the Hansons, as well as Angie and Easton. It was a really special holiday and a nice relaxing trip.
For New Years we headed to Montreal for 5 days. It was Sawyer's first flight, and he was a natural traveler. We were super spoiled and went first class. What a treat. The food was decent, we could get a drink, and even change Sawyer on the floor in front of our seats, instead of cramming ourselves in the bathroom. It was the best flight we have ever had to Montreal. We arrived in Montreal to 1 degree weather and big smiles from Sawyer for his Teta and Giddo! It was exciting to see Sam, Irene and cousin Anthony, as well as finally meeting Tatiana for the first time. We also got to visit with friends Gerry and Renee, as well as the Moukheibers. Sawyer tried banana for his second introduction to solids. He really liked it, but both Hani and I were a little shocked when it appeared in the diaper the next day. New Years Eve we were all asleep by 10:30 p.m., I swear it's because Hani was sick with the flu and not because we have a baby now! Sawyer had lots of fun singing with Teta and playing with his cousins, we were all sad to leave. The flight home went smoothly and Sawyer did great transitioning back to his own crib after two vacations.
