Family

One perk of being here (as opposed to Columbus) is we are close to family – both our families, in fact.  The other night my parents invited us to come over along with one of my brothers and his family for a bbq and homemade ice cream.  It is good to see and connect with everyone again.  We came home often, but it always seemed a little rushed, like we were trying to fit so much in.  It is nice to just have time, and to be able to pop in for an hour if we want.  It is also really neat to see Madison bond with her cousins.  She liked Sam and Lilli, but was very impressed with Sam’s antics – although Lilli started to win her over with her dance moves!  The three were like peas in a pod for the night.  It started with the swings and what my brother called “turbo blasting” the kids, and it continued through bath time.

Madison liked wearing Lilli’s flip flops as well.

Ellie is also entertained by her cousins’ antics and enjoyed the extra time with Grandma and Grandpa and anyone else who wanted some baby time.
