We joined Chris, Tracy, & Kerin on a mountain bike tour of the rainforest and Eerd Falls in St. Lucia. The island is so lucious and green! Jon, Kerin, & Chris actually got to climb the waterfall. It was a fun excursion!
Here we are by the Petit Piton while the sun set on one side of us while the moon rose on the other. God created such a gorgeous world!
We stopped at Darkwood Beach for a couple of hours before heading back to the ship. This is where we wrote our "baby announcement" in the sand! 
Dylan and I were looking at pictures today and came across this one. We were talking about how silly everyone looked. Dylan said, "Uncle Reed is silly, Mom. He is picking his nose. He is naughty." Yes, that was funny, but what made me laugh a little more was that I'm pretty sure it is Uncle Eric's finger (not picking Reed's nose, but giving Dad bunny ears)!
St. Thomas was by far the most gorgeous port!
The "kids" headed to Coki Beach to do some snorkeling. The water was beautiful! I wish I was there today...
Thanks to Eric, this is what we've heard at dinner the last few nights... 
We have had a busy and wonderful month! Hannah is a great baby and we are having fun with her. She is awake more often now, and during those awake times she is very alert. Yes, she is smiling a little, mostly at her father... and that just melts my heart! It is hard to tell from the picture, but Hannah is packing on the pounds. She gained 2 pounds in 2 weeks (up to 9lbs. 1oz. already) and grew 3 1/2" since birth! She is a great eater. It is so hard to believe that she has grown that much in such a short time. I hope I never gain 25% of my body weight in 2 weeks! I purchased a new baby carrier (Dylan calls it Hannah's backpack) and love carrying her around. I think she loves it too because she doesn't want to sleep unless we're cuddling her close. We'll have to work on that, but I still love cuddling her in my BabyHawk! (Sorry Tara, no pics yet... I wear it mostly during the day and it's hard to take a decent picture of myself!) Overall, little Hannah Grace is a sweetheart and we love our "new" family!
On to other news... Dylan continues to crack us up! Here are a few of his funnier moments...
This week, Uncle Eric got to watch Dylan for a while. When I got home, this is what Dylan looked like. Here's a snip-it of our conversation:
D: "Mom, Uncle Eric made my hair like a bird!"
S: "What???"
D: "Yeah Mom, like a hawk."
S: "What??? (pause) Oh! A mo-hawk!"
And he has asked us for his bird hair all week long!
Ever since I got home from the hospital, Dylan has known that he can't rough-house with me because "Mom has a big ouwie." Here is the conversation we had when I got back from my 6 week check-up:
S: "Dylan, the doctor told me that my big ouwie was all better now!"
D: "Yeah! You can do rough-house with me now... BIG rough-house!!!" (With arms waving up in the air!)
What a trip! He can be a little crazy sometimes and drive us nuts, but how can you not love the little guy!
He has also caught cabin-fever pretty bad lately. He would go away every night of the week if he could! What we need to do is play outside more often, but it is so hard with it being so cold and with Hannah around. I have to work on that. If only it would stay as warm as Tuesday (sunny and 55 degrees) instead of today (snowy and 30 degrees) we would be all set! So, if anyone wants a talkative little guy to run errands with, he's all yours!
There's my little update. Now to making a grocery list and finally taking down the tree (hopefully!).
Happy New Year!
