So, this was over a month ago now but I can't leave our first cousins trip out of the blog! We hope for many many many more of these with many many more cousins in the future :) Nana, Aunt Lauren and Owen headed down from Dallas to help us get settled. The downstairs went from boxes and dust to a home! The dining room table, hutch and piano were delivered and fit just beautifully. I am so lucky to have them. My mom and Grandma Ruth went shopping together and bought the dining room set right after Mom and Dad got married. It is so special to have them. We even embarked on the scary adventure of decorating the whole wall of shelves in the study... if they hadn't come I think the doors would just be permanently shut to that room!!! None of us are decorators but between the 3 of us we did a pretty good job! We had lots of fun too... swimming, playing at the park and even a girls shopping trip while Jeanne Ann played with the babies! Thank you JaJa!! We can't wait for the next trip! I didn't get any great pics but here are a couple.
First bath together! (You can see that Charlotte doesn't miss a meal these days, love my chunky monkey!)
Aunt Lauren and my bathing beauty
Enjoying the best spot in the house - the porch!!
Buddies... so sweet
The kiddoes in their adorable outfits from Hawaii! Uncle Vinny recently got back from running a marathon in Hawaii and of course didn't forget his niece and nephew. He is such a sweetie and I love Lotte's adorable little Hawaiian dress.
We had so much fun and cannot WAIT to come back soon!! Finish that test in October and we'll be on your doorstep waiting:)
