TIme for an update....Happy Holidays!!

So...it has been a while since I have updated.

Not a ton has changed around our house except that Mikaela is growing and changing a little bit everyday. She is recognizing each of us in our family and smiles a TON!! Brother gets the most smiles from her, she sure does love her brother.

Christmas was pretty relaxing for us. We stayed here in Texas where there was less snow than Nebraska. Christmas Eve we opened gifts at home and Dad, Bonnie and our friend Alex joined us for dinner and the opening gifts. Landon was excited and had a great time opening all of his gifts and Mikaela's gifts. She slept through most of the evening after one of her evening fits. Bonnie took over and did great with her and got her to sleep. She loves her Mimi and Didi!!

Then on Christmas day we opened our gifts from Santa and then went out to Mike and Janet's house for the day of Rowland Family Christmas. Another fun time of opening gifts with the family and again Mikaela slept through that event...morning nap time.

I went back to work for a couple weeks before Christmas break started and Mikaela started daycare. At first it was stressful with many daycare changes for many reasons and prayers were answered and we found an AWESOME daycare for Mikaela to go to. She loves it there. She gets excited in the mornings when dad drops her off and is happy in the afternoon when mom and brother pick her up.

I promise for the new year to do a better job at updating this for you all to enjoy!!
