A fun visit from cousins

What a busy week we've had! We had a fun visit from Mark's sister and her family. Thursday morning Mark's mom and I 'babysat' for two of the cousins while the rest of the family had an appointment in town. We had a fun morning! It sure was different to have three kids instead of one!


Here's the latest James & Ricky Friday photo...yes, our living room is almost always that messy these days. Oh, and the empty oatmeal container to his right has been a great toy--he loves to chew on it (of course) and dump things out of it!

Here's James playing with, or at least next to, his cousin Jason. Jason is exactly two years older than James, so we get all of his hand-me-downs. Thanks Jason!
We started off the morning with some sugary cereal with marshmallows. I never eat cereal--but I did Thursday morning! And no, Andrea, I didn't pick out all of the marshmallows first. I know, it's hard to believe. The kids were pretty excited about the cereal!

After James' nap, we went on a walk! I'm glad we had two strollers, as the park was five blocks or so away. It was a beautiful day for it!

Look at this big boy!

I was surprised at how hard it was to get all three kids to be looking in the direction of the camera. This was the best of four or five attempts!

Sarah was so sweet with James. He wasn't sure what to think about all the loving from her, but she was very gentle with him. At one point she even picked him up and hauled him into the kitchen where we were getting lunch ready--they might be a little too small for that yet! :)
