The only thing better then cousins is more cousins! believe it or not these are only the grand kids from 3 of the 6 children... of course we are the 3 that have by far the most kids, 5, 5, and 7.
Lilly and Peter loved holding little Olivia, in fact they were very upset when it wasn't their turn to hold her, as demonstrated. Except for the occasional tantrum, they really were very loving and gentle with their little cousin, hopefully that will be the case when they have a new little brother...
Eating yogurt, chillin' by the out door fireplace. Life is GOOD!
Grandma with her newest little addition to the family. Olivia is one of the cutest, sweetest little babies.
Braving the pool in the FREEZING cold (high 60's). Thankfully the pool was heated, so getting in was great, it's the getting out we had a hard time with...
Sharing Grandpa Great. With a new little cousin around, Lilly and Peter had to learn to share one of their favorite cuddle buddies.
Every night while we were sleeping, this little guy made his appearance and ate anything and everything left out. We set a trap for him and had no luck, he was too smart and some how managed to sneak the food out of the trap without getting caught. Well grandpa finally fixed the trap and he got caught, The kids were SO excited to have a "pet" raccoon. The mommies on the other hand were not too thrilled with having a wild creature in a cage were little fingers might get bitten. so he got moved into the donkey cage where the kids could still see him but not get close enough to touch.
Don't let the sweet innocent face fool you, racoons are actually quite vicious... despite any cute little book you may have read to your children recently.
