Cousins!

For years we've been trying to get Joli to ride her bike WITH training wheels. She sort of would, but just did not like it. Then today Uncle Sam was pumping up the tires on the bikes, and she realized that she actually liked it. Not only that, but she hopped on one of the bikes without training wheels and pretty much took off! So Joe took the training wheels of her bike, and they went out to practice. She did amazing!!



 She was so happy!!





 We were super excited to see Joe's sister and her kids, who we were meeting at the park today! The kids could hardly wait to go!!
 They all had such a great time together!
 We all had a few Christmas presents for each other. They were so sweet!





 Markus started getting a little tired, but he pulled it together.





 Yep, just the kids playing at the park...









 We brought a bunch of bikes and scooters with us, and the kids were thrilled to play!

 It was so fun to have all the cousins together!
 Two brothers and a sister!
 Plus the wifey's 
 Then we started getting tired and melting down.


It was so nice to all be together! We had such a great time!!

Outdoor Play

Yesterday the kids woke up entirely too early, so we let them watch some cartoons. Which they seem to really enjoy! 


 Markus and Berkley had a great playing pretend.
 Bailor was very happy that all the kids left their plates behind!

 Grammy and I took Joli and Markus for a walk.

 We ended up at Starbucks!

 When we got back the kids played in the back yard.


 Such a cute little dinosaur!







It was getting later and the kids needed a nap, so thaw's's what we did!
