Yo, Cuz


As I was going through our pictures from VA and Buckroe Beach, I realized that I really wanted to write a blog about the special bond that evolved between Madison and her cousin, Katie. Katie is 2 1/2 years old and the middle child of my brother, Brian. Katie and Madison met once before, when Madison was about 9 months old, but for some reason on this recent trip they really just clicked. Actually, she loved playing with all of her cousins, but the two of them were like joined at the hip. Wherever Madison was, Katie was, and vice versa.
Katie had to have a lot of patience to put up with a 1 1/2-year old! And Madison thinks she is one of the "big kids" so it was a good fit!
Even now, weeks after the trip, when Madison sees a playground or a pool she says "Kaaaaaatie" and looks for her like she might show up and play. She misses her cuz!!!

Summer fun

Here are a few random short videos from this summer. These are just little clips that I came across after the big photo dump! We just got back from Virginia on Monday night and had a fabulous time. Madison loooOOOooooved playing with her cousin Katie (did I say LOVED??) and also Tommy and Chrissy too. :) Oh yeah and Jamie and Justin. It was great to have the whole gang together and the wedding itself was a lot of fun. I'll post some pictures from the trip but here the quick vids for now! I wish I had taken more at the beach, but I was too busy chasing after my water baby....!

Seriously??


Yikes! These bad habits can start young I guess..... The 'endangering their children' photos on here is especially freaky!
