Christmas 2009

We spent this Christmas home in Austin, just the 3 of us. It was really amazing to watch Cash as he figured out that that Christmas morning was different than any other morning. Although he didn't really open his gifts himself, he realized very quickly that what was inside the wrapping was for him, AND HE WANTED IT! It took us nearly four hours to open gifts because Cash wanted to stop and play with each one as it was opened, and we were happy to oblige. Needless to say, mommy and daddy got their money's worth this year if measured in time spent. I'm sure next year will be a bit different, so we really relished the time together this special, first Christmas home together. And Kevin and I would both agree that this was truely the best Christmas as we got to witness the joy through our own child's eyes.
2009 has been a wirl-win of firsts for us with our new family, and we can't wait to see what 2010 has to bring. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of our family and friends. Below you will see some pics and video of Christmas morning at the Bromenshenk's home.
God Bless you-

What a year

Can't hardly believe a year has come and gone. To refresh your memories, Cash has been home with us for 1 year as of Thanksgiving Day. Cash has come so far and we have had some great milestones. Watching him learn to sit-up, crawl, stand, and finally walk! He has gone from bottle only, to darn-near feeding himself without assitance. He talks all the time, but has finally dropped a few words we can understand..."Dadda", "Mollie" (which is more like Ollie), and "I love you" thanks to Grandma Marlene. Cash has brought so much love, joy and laughter into our lives in the last year, we can't wait to see what this next year has in store. This is video taken on Thanksgiving Day while Kevin was on the phone to Aunt Doris and Uncle Wayne in Montana.
