There is something very special about having my kids so close in age to my cousin Emily's two children. Em and I have grown up together and have been friends always. Now we get to watch our kids make friends with one another and play and grow together. We have Ava and Austin and now Gavin and Michaela. We spent the day with Emily and her boys a few weeks ago and here are some pictures. The swimming was awesome! The toddlers played and played and played in that little plastic pool in the backyard. The stopped for a supper break and then were back at it again within minutes. They also took some timeouts from the swimming in order to water the plants, talk to the babies, play in the sandbox, and swing. At one point the Double A's were running back and forth from fence to fence in the yard chanting something. Neither Em nor I knew what they were saying but they definitely knew and were chanting the exact same phrase as they ran. :) After the pool both had to take a bath and clean up. While in the tub I overheard Austin as he was trying to stop Ava from wrecking his bath art on the tub wall, "Oh, honey, no. No, honey, don't do that." So darn cute. I guess that's what his mommy calls him so its become his term of endearment to use on others.
