Mark was able to get the holidays off of work. This was, of course, after he had worked 6 days on inpatient! We both had late nights that week. The only advantage is that we were both up for the lunar eclipse!
On December 23rd, we headed out to Paris for our first road trip with Clark. It was interesting to see how many items were "needed" now that we had a baby. I jokingly told my dad that he needed to hire some movers to help us unload our car! We did use most of what we brought!
Highlights in Paris included: Christmas Eve with Swaskos, singing the "Twelve Days of Christmas", second date night and we saw "The Fighter", reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to Clark and my youth group reunion.
Next, we traveled to Austin to see the Clark side of the family. Clark's feet did not touch the ground during our time in Austin. Everyone wanted to hold him! He loved it and was amused by all of the attention. We also found out that two of my cousins are now pregnant with boys!
On our trip back to Oklahoma, we stopped in Dallas so that Clark could meet his Godmother Lindsay!
We also celebrated NYE with our good friends the Kirkpatricks. The Kirkpatricks also have a little boy who is five weeks younger than Clark. The boys have matching car seats and they slept through most of dinner. This picture was taken right before we rang in the New Year at 9 pm!
