Cousins

Last week, Laura, Mallory and Adam came to visit! We tried to work something out earlier in the summer so Ed could come, too, but alas, his and Matt's work schedules didn't allow that to happen.


On Tuesday, we met up with them at the Toledo Zoo.

This is the girls "fighting." They started it when they were sitting together in the double stroller, prompting Laura to tell them to stop while they were seated, and they could "fight" when they got out. Not something she'd ever thought she'd say, but it surpisingly did not end in tears so no harm done. :)

After the zoo, we all headed back to Ann Arbor for our visit. That night, Laura and I even got a quick girl's night out! (Of sorts, Laura still had to get up with Adam and all four kids were raring to go bright and early the next day) But it was nice to get some kid-free time. The kids were pretty well-behaved the whole time, even taking simultaneous naps the next day. We had a great time and hope they come back again soon!

Kate looks like she is being nice to Adam, but she was really trying to steal his paci the whole time. And Adam is relegated to a pink bouncy seat here at our girl's paradise. ;)

This was the best we could do of all four of them.
