bonding



This weekend we have had the privilege to have our nephew as a guest in our home while his parents are enjoying some time in California! Used to his "quieter" surroundings, I think the circus that our house sometimes is came as quite a shock to this little man! That said, sweet Tyson adapted quickly and Anna and Emmett have enjoyed every moment they have shared with their cousin.

Upon waking Anna and Emmett both look and ask for Tyson - they have helped him find his water, read books, eat snacks/lunch/dinner, held his hand, gave him hugs and made him giggle if he was ever sad.

It's been special for all of us to get to know this sweet little boy in a whole new way - we have a sneaking suspicion that he and Emmett are going to be good buds as they grow older being that they are so close in age.
We love you Tyson and are so happy to have you here with us!


P.S...no, we did not get them matching shirts. I looked in Tyson's bag and saw he had the same shirt as Emmett by chance and thought it would be silly to dress them alike for the day!

I love these pictures - it's so fun to look at them and think of what times will be like when as they get older and start to have sleepovers, and run/talk/play. Thanks for watching, and taking care of our little man. We could tell he had a blast with his cousins and Auntie/Uncle, as he was pooped upon return! Thank you again so much!
