Christmas time 2009

Again we celebrated Christmas several times with family and friends. Cheryl's family celebrated with us a couple weeks early because we planned to be in Calif. for Xmas with Carey's family. On the way to Sacramento, we stopped in Portland and would have celebrated Christmas with Shelly and Charli Jo there, but they decided to go to Sacramento with us, so we could all celebrate together there. Due to a funeral, Kent and Cheryl and Melissa and Rylan also were in Portland when we were there. After Christmas we retraced our drive back to Portland and we were fortunate not to have any bad traveling weather along the way. When we got back home, we had a few days to get ourselves ready for our trip to India.

Caden is making good progress and doing more and more things in his development. All of his therapies are certainly helping him. He really enjoyed Christmas. We were in India for his 1st birthday, but the videos we saw showed him having a good time then as well.
