My Cousin Nick

I love my cousin Nick!! He is almost 10 years old and he is the coolest cousin ever! I think I annoyed him a little bit with my cranky crybaby antics, but he still showed me lots of love and fun toys! Check out these cute pictures:

Here he is showing me his new computer game:

Whenever we sat at the table, I just liked to stare at him. He is so animated and says funny things!

Here is Nick and Mommy when we went out to dinner...

He tried teaching me how to play Wii:

He loved petting my hair because it's soooo soft!

He let me crawl all over him...

But made sure I wouldn't fall down!

And here's a video of us playing... in case you didn't know that I'm an expert crawler!

Aunt April

And I finally met my Aunt April!  (Can you believe I have 4 aunties?!)  Aunt April is my cousin Nick's mom and I think when she saw me it made her miss having a little baby around... she was always holding and squeezing me just right.  Not that I'm complaining!

This is just after we first met and I'm still a little shy...

On Christmas Eve i let her give me a bottle at the party.

Christmas Day was a long and tiring day.  I wound down by sitting with Aunt April and Grandpa's dog Rowdy. 

I miss Aunt April already.  Hope to see her again soon!

Aunt Katie

I met Aunt Katie when I was just 5 weeks old!  I've grown alot since then and had loads of fun with her on our visit.  Here are some things we did together:

She let me play with her phone - it's so cool.

She held me when we went out to dinner and I was getting tired.  She was kind of skeptical of what someone was saying in this picture, but I was about to fall asleep:

This next one is from Christmas morning.  We all just woke up (can you tell) and are waiting to open all the presents from Santa and eachother!  And there's a sneak peak of my cousin Nick!  His debut on the blog...  More to come with him later...

Here's Aunt Katie watching me play with the sliding glass doors at Grandpa's house.  I love sliding glass doors!

Then she told me a secret!  I can't tell you what it is.

Here we are out to dinner again, and I'm tired.  We were out way past my bed time, like every night of our trip!

And here we are reading a book before bed with Daddy and Charlie Murphy.

Thanks for hosting us while we were down in Florida Aunt Katie!  Can't wait to see you again!!!

Grandma Pam

I've been waiting my whole entire life to meet my Grandma Pam!  She did not disappoint.  She's loads of fun and plays all sorts of silly games with me.  She tried to teach me to blow kisses, but I'm still working on it.  Here are some of the fun things we did together:

This is a fun game where I stick my hand in Grandma's mouth and then she pretends to eat it and makes a crazy sound.  It makes me shriek with laughter!

 

I know this next picture isn't good quality but I wanted to show you the giant breadstick that Grandma let me eat.  I gnawed on it all night and proved to Momma that I won't choke on things bigger than a sunflower seed!

 

And here is a video of me and Grandma playing with Nannie's dog Chancey.  Turns out, I LOVE dogs!
