Bean Town Visit

We traveled to Boston this past weekend to visit my Aunt Jan & Uncle Ken.  My Mom, Charlie, my cousin Ryan, his wife Jess, and their 2 boys, Evan and Alex, as well as my cousin Paul, his wife Margaux and their son Reed also joined in on the fun. 

Who would have predicted a wild weekend would have started with an accordion lesson. 
Here is Reed (2.5 years old) and Nathan scarfing down on cookies.  That's my cousin Paul in the background.
 This was the boys club all weekend - Reed, Nathan, and Evan (4.5 years old).
And here was the baby club (don't tell Alex I said that).  Ryan and Alex (1.5 years old) had a cage fight in the pack n play.
Although it came out blurry, this is a picture of my Mom opening up "Middle Sister" Wine.  I think it was subtitled "Drama Queen."  Fitting?  Nah.
The boys were enjoying their homemade letter pancakes from my wonderful Aunt Jan.  
And before we came home, the boys decided to watch a movie in the media room.  Ryan/Nathan - don't get used to this...
 I hope we can get all the cousins back together soon.

And I had to throw in Ryan's official 9 month picture.  He is 29 inches and 18 lbs 13 oz.  Tall and thin...just like his Mama. ;)

Living & Loving Life

Not much has been new with us lately. We are just going about our lives and trying to enjoy every minute of it. Ryan decided it was fun to make raspberries on my leg. Check it out.



Nathan went to a birthday party and did this for 2 straight hours.
We had a BBQ at our house and Ryan played with his friend Austin the entire time. They are going to grow up to be great friends.
Here is Ryan trying to play with big boy toys. He wants nothing to do with baby stuff.
I love snuggling with my munchkin and my bug.
And last but not least, we have a wonderful new addition to our family. My cousin Holly had a little baby girl this week. Welcome Hannah!
