Cousin Visit and Backyard Fun

We had lots of fun visiting (second) cousins Alanah, Imani, and Montego last week. Aunt Kerry drove us up and got to spend lots of time with the girls, Leah got to know the girls, I got to meet Montego, and everyone had so much fun in the huge baby-proofed area at the Wilson's.

I also got some good pictures of backyard playtime, and our first walk in the cold. It was easier in some ways when they were teeny and immobile - just bundle bundle and go. Now they want to tear off their blankets, hats, etc etc. They'll get used to it all eventually. And also they're not teeny so it's not SO imperative to make sure they're toasty warm.

Bundled. They look so different in hats!

This was our compromise on the hat. Looks pretty sweet

Freya not all that thrilled

She got out from here herself

Leah, Imani, Kerry, Signe

Rita, Freya, Imani, Signe. The girls warmed immediately to Rita because she looks so much like their Nana Carol
