Long Time, No See!

Last week you got to meet some new family members and we stayed very busy running around with everyone! Your Great Aunt Cindy came in from Colorado and stayed for the week. She really enjoyed getting to love on you- she fed you and rocked you, and you even blessed her with some smiles!!! We may not get to see her and Uncle Steve very often, but when we do we cherish every moment!! Here's a picture of you and Grammy:

And Mommy's cousin Amy, her husband Mina, and their daughter Miriam came in from Costa Rica where Amy is working as a veternarian. We only get to see them a couple times a year, so it's always a treat! Hopefully we will see them again in January, and they will have a new little girl with them!! Naomi is due in November!!

Here is a great picture of Aunt Cindy, Miriam, Emerson, and Ryan:

And here's you, and your cousins!:

I LOVE this close-up of all of your sweet faces!!:

Family is so important little one. That is one thing you will see as you grow up on both Mommy and Daddy's side. We are constantly spending the evening with one side of the family or the other, even on some nights when we plan on spending a quiet evening at home, you never know what plans might pop up! I am so glad that you will get to grow up among both sides. It's tougher in some aspects because it's easy to get swept up in the drama, but it's worth it in the end because you are able to make so many memories and learn so much from everyone!
