Ski trip

We went to Snowmass Village, Colorado for a week. Matthew learned how to ski for the first time. Nanna and Papa watched Audrey in the condo while we skiied. Lori, Bryan, and Mike also joined us.
One time at bath time, I washed Matthew with a soap containing microbeads. He didn't like it so I used something else. While on vacation, he drank some orange juice with pulp in it for the first time. He said "mama, this has microbeads in it!".

Matthew had a sinus cold and had trouble sleeping the first night. Andy had to pit him in our bed where we were both kicked at during the night. Audrey also struggled with a cold and I had her in the bed, too. Matthew accidentally woke her up with his flailing arms so she cried and then he cried. Audrey had sinus drainage that caused her to spit up a lot. We were all taking lots of showers to get cleaned up. It was exhausting at first. But then they both started feeling better and sleeping better so we were all feeling better from the good sleep. It is a rough adjustment the first couple of days to get used to the altitude.
We flew into Eagle Vail airport and rented a car. Audrey did well on her first plane ride and Matthew was a big boy, too. The kids slept in the car on the way to the condo so mommy and daddy were happy to have some peace and quiet on the drive.
Andy and Matthew were playing and Matthew bit Andy thinking that it was funny. Andy disciplined Matthew and later that night Matthew said "daddy have bobo. Matthew bite daddy. I'm sorry daddy"
Bryan was cutting some vegetables the first day and cut his finger. He put a bandaid on it
and Matthew talked about it the rest of the trip.
Matthew was having so much fun with the family that he didn't want to go to bed. He can be very chatty when he is in a good mood. Audrey would nap a little and try to sit up to see everyone. She has good control over her head and she would lift it to see whats going on. Nanna would feed Audrey the bottle and Papa would burp her. Papa was able to get her to sleep by walking the floor and patting her back.
