Cousins

We recently enjoyed a visit at my mom's with my brother, his wife and their two boys Radnor and Ace. Radnor and Caleb are just 3 months apart so it is always interesting to see what they will be into when they get together. They are both the type to get into anything and everything and they have some of the most hilarious antics. Radnor does a wonderful Pants On the Ground solo as well as This Land is Your Land. While taking a break from supervising them, we were able to enjoy watching Eli crawl around and snuggle with sweet little Ace. Rad is quite the big brother and quite the loving cousin.
This little guy will just melt your heart.
Wonder of wonders that my kids look like they are BOTH on some kind of illegal substance.
There were many outtakes in trying to pose 4 boys ages 3, 8 months, 2 1/2 months and 3! Although Rad sort of does have a "Gap" type pose going on here.

My sister and her two boys came down from KY just the other day to attend the Vandy-UT basketball game. As there were only 3 tickets and my brother Luke was going, one of the twins had to stay with Grandmama. Ethan was kind enough to let his brother Clark go, which is a decision he no doubt later regretted as Grandmama stayed at our house after his mom and Clark left so they could hang out with Caleb. Caleb was perfectly beside himself over the visit of his cousins, so much so that he couldn't even take his nap after I told him they were coming. He chased poor Ethan all over the house and wouldn't let him 2 inches away from him. He did settle down a little when I put a movie on, but the boy thinks the world of his older cousins. I'm sure they would say he has a most interesting way of showing it, however, as he most often will jump on them, hit them and just basically pester them to death. Thanks guys for being such good sports- you truly are baby celebrities!

A moment's peace for Ethan.

That picture of Caleb and Eli "under the influence" is so funny! I wonder how many years it will be until we can get a picture of all four boys, smiling and looking at the camera. We had fun with you the other night!
