Oh what the years will bring....

This weekend Cousin Michael and Aunt Aleisha came all the way to Muskegon to visit. It was such a special time for me. I was able to spend time with my wonderful sister who I miss and also see my precious nephew who is so full of energy. There wasn't much time for sitting down because the kids kept us so busy. Times have changed:)

It was hard to get the two to stay in one place and smile. Adeline's attention span is about one minute and by time she was ready Michael was tired of waiting so long. Here are a few candid smiles.

The two enjoyed tea time together and were both very good at cleaning up when they were all done. Adeline did very well sharing her toys with Michael except for her Barbie car. Michael loves cars and apparently so does Adeline. (or at least her Barbie one)

Aunt Aleisha brought some print outs of Elmo and friends to color. I have the Masterpiece's here at home if anyone would like to make a bid?

One of the closest shots we got of the two together smiling.

This shot was pretty funny. We were at the play land at the Mall and the two were both on the boat so we tried to take advantage of a photo opportunity. Once we started taking shots this kid jumps on the boat and smiles. He stays there the whole time. He was pretty cute so we decided not to ask him to get off the boat.

My special moment was this right here. Cuddle time with my sweetie:)

Side note: Two stories:
#1- riding in the car on the way to church we had both kids in the back of the Jeep and Adeline coughed. Michael was quick to imitate her with a cough of his own. Then it became a game and each one kept going back and forth coughing and looking at each other until the other went next.

#2- while at lunch on Sunday Michael I guess had to blow his nose so he took the napkin held it to his nose and made a LOUD spit noise with his mouth. Then he handed the napkin to Aleisha when he was done. SO FUNNY!.....Now Adeline does the same thing. She isn't as good on the loud spitting noise but she is definitely trying.
