18 months and counting!!!

We realize it's been a while since our last post ... but so much going on! Thanksgiving in Chicago was a BLAST, and the month of December has seemingly flown by. Finally got all of the holiday cards mailed yesterday and now we're moving onto our next feat ... packing for Brazil. We take off Tuesday morning for our three-flight adventure, so here's to some vino for me/Ben, and some Benadryl for Caroline. This trip is gonna be a doozy - but we are so excited to see the Brites family! They've never met Caroline, and we already know they will just love her. She is thrilled to meet all of her many, many cousins!!

Speaking of C, she is 18 months today! Really the time has disappeared. Our little sweet baby has turned into a semi-sweet, very active, independent smart little cookie. This week her interests include: cereal, bubble baths and cooking up just about anything in her mini kitchen. It's adorable.
C is also really into anything Christmas-y ... the tree (read: shaking the tree), lights (read: pulling at the lights), Santa (ho ho ho!) and snow! This morning we had on GMA and the weather man was talking about all the snow we're anticipating in Washington this weekend and she promptly ran to the sliding door to look for the snow. She was sadly disappointed to not find anything just yet.
We wish everyone a very happy holiday season and promise to post some pics from our Brazil extravaganza once we're back in the new year! For now, enjoy some recent photos of C.
