MinnesoOoOota Welcomes Rhett

i was a nervous-nelly before our trip to minnesota, but i must say, young rhettski was an adorable little trooper. he slept the entire car ride besides a short stop to eat and diapy change, and he slept like a champ (7-8 hours!) during the nights. he did catch a little cold on new years eve, so we did not stay up to ring in the new year with him.  despite his anxious-mama-nurse being crazy and wanting to go to the emergency room (for bedside oxygen and suction equipment...), mr. rhett recovered quick, and we got home safe and not completely traumatized either. who knew? merry minnesota!

i ride in the backseat now cause i'm cool like that

my grandma, when she held him, would say "ahhh boo boo boo boo boo".  he and i both loved it.
