Cousins' Reunion


I spent this past week "up north" (that's Toledo) because my Aunt Trish and my cousins came to visit all the way from Colorado! Our week was action-packed w/ lots of fun things to do.

We played in Nan's backyard:













We ate and colored together:




We went to the Zoo:












And we went to the Mud Hens game:






I learned a lot about my cousins while we were together.

Joshie is the youngest, but he's a wild man! He likes to run down the slide and play rough and tumble with the older guys. I don't think there's much he's afraid of!


Drewsie is a lot more quiet. He likes to play trains and golf. He'll let me play with him once in a while.


Jack is the silly one. He likes to make people laugh by acting crazy and singing funny songs. I especially liked when he fed me ice cream.


Mike-Mike is a good helper. He makes sure that I don't get hurt around everybody when we're playing. He watches out for me a lot.


All of us had so much fun together! I was sad to see my cousins go back to Colorado. I hope that we can play together again soon!

A New Baby!


I have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new baby cousin Taylor. I have been poking at Marissa's belly for months and wondering when her baby would come out and see me.


Yesterday, she finally arrived!


She was born at 8:11 PM and weighed 7 pounds 14 ounces. She is about 20 inches long. She's pretty small compared to me!


Mommy waited at the hospital for Taylor to be born, and I waited at home with Daddy.


But today I got to see Taylor myself!


Me and Taylor are going to be good friends, just like Mommy and Marissa. I can't wait to show her all my books and share my pretties with her!

Ava and Drew go to Cosi Too!


Me and Drew went to Cosi with our Daddies to check out the construction exhibit.

Drew was a pretty crazy driver in the Bobcat!


Maybe his Daddy can help him drive.

Next we went crawling through some tubing.


I can't get out!


Whew! That was a close one.


After that, we went to the play area where we had the best time.
