Cousins

Aunt Laura, Ben, and Alex got to come up last week for a fun weekend. I'm sure I was more excited than Reid, but he was really happy to be around his cousins and his aunt.
Ben, proudly wearing a shirt that he'll have fun sporting back Down Under in Perth, where they live.
Ben enjoyed taking pictures of Uncle Jason taking his picture. I think Alex just enjoyed the saying, "Cheese!" part every time a camera came out :)
Our weather has been so crazy...90 degrees and muggy, then 55 the next morning. You just never know. But I have happened across a couple of adorable outfits that Reid hasn't gotten to wear yet. Look at this cute little baseball bottom!
And this adorable one is brand new, compliments of Aunt Laura. We had all three of the boys' pictures taken at J.C. Penny on Saturday. Despite the photo studio running very late, all three boys did a great job and worked the camera. Can't wait to pick those up next week! They all had a white polo shirt and jeans, so Reid's actually came with these cute overalls.
Practicing standing with Aunt Laura:
Playing with Alex:
And we rarely ever have the chance for a family photo since either Jason or I am always taking the pictures, so we jumped on the opportunity.
Happy boy with his hair blowing in the breeze (or should I say 40 mph wind?? We left the park early later because it was so bad!)
The boys all needed to get some fresh air and play time after their naps, so we braved the wind and headed to the park. All Reid could really do was swing and watch his cousins play, but I did put him on my lap and slide twice, much to his delight.


Amazingly, we did fit all three carseats and all three adults into my Highlander so we wouldn't have to take two cars to church the next day. It was a tight squeeze (and we did end up changing the arrangement the next day so Laura wouldn't have to flash people while crawling over the seat), but it worked!
And you KNOW your sister rocks when she comes halfway around the world, drives up from Houston, AND offers up a date night for you!! So Jason and I celebrated our anniversary at The Grape down on Greenville Ave. Fittingly, that is also where one of our "babymoon" meals was last year. It was perfect, relaxing, and romantic. Thanks, Laura! :)
