Oh the joy!

So Mom and I came up to Michigan for our vacation to spend time with my oldest brother, sis-in-law, 2 nephews and new niece.
Time is so precious and flies so quickly!!!

There's Jack, a miniature look alike of his Mommy, who is now a grown up 7 years old, but still has his attachment to Bo the Bear (still surviving 7 years strong) and Bubba his blanket that has diminsished to little scraps. How quickly the day will come when he no longer takes them with him :(






He loves to climb up trees, swing on the monkey bars with amazing strength, and be so courageous and strong!



Also, incredibly smart and now addicted to the Wii thanks to Aunt Cici (me)haha




There's Thatcher a miniature of his Daddy, trying so hard to be as grown up as Jack...who giggles if you even think of tickling him. Strong and courageous as well, but still fighting not to be a "little boy". Who loves to snuggle on the couch with Aunt Cici when he gets a boo boo (which is very often!).

Thatcher, who loves his baby sister, but doesn't know what to say to her, so just looks and kisses her when he thinks no one is looking



Baby Margaret, the picture of absolute cuteness! A perfect mixture of both Mommy and Daddy and all personality. Loves to be held and cuddled, loves her Mommy and Daddy to talk to her all the time. LOVES being center of attention! Smiles and coos and her big brothers even though they don't say anything to her, they just stare in awe. Smiles and frowns almost in the same second, and will be a force to be reckoned with once she starts crawling!!!!






So neat to see my big brother, who loves his rambunctious boys, and gets a soft smile and such joy in his eyes when he talks to his baby girl

My sis-in-law,

who is SUCH an amazing sis-in-law, wife, and mother. She's absolutely gorgeous. My brother really lucked out! She always makes us feel so welcome and it's hilarious to see her facial expressions when the boys have once again been wrestling and beating on each other, and inevitably someone gets hurt!


And Nana, who never wants to leave and whom I have to steal my niece away from her to have a few moments to bond with my niece. I love seeing her be so joyful and happy and at rest!



And fun for Aunt Cici, is waking up to hearing little giggles in the basement with me and whispers of "Do you think she's awake? hehehehehehehe"
