Cousins!

We are so happy that here in Houston, Luke gets to live near his cute cousins, Bethany (3) and Becca (1 - just 4 weeks older than Luke!). I'm sure they will become great friends as they grow up together. We drove out to visit them the day after we arrived in Houston.

Luke was so excited to see his cousins and their beagle, Rocky that he started waving this fork around wildly. Don't worry, we took it away immediately.

Luke is already really good at invading his older cousin Bethany's space.

Becca was eating dinner when we arrived, but she got distracted with all of the excitement going on around her. Luke decided to help her out by chowing down on a few of her fries.

Until he realized it was even more fun to feed them to Rocky.

Caitlin tried asking Luke nicely to stop feeding Rocky, but he was having way too much fun. He erupted in huge belly laughs each time Rocky took a fry out of his hand.

After an hour or so, Luke was getting pretty tired and a little grumpy. Normally, at that point he only wants Mommy or Daddy, but he happily went to his Uncle Ben for a game of catch with Jeff and Becca before we drove home.

How exciting for you guys to be so close to family now. Isn't is the best?!? Luke is going to be SO spoiled by those grandparents. ;) So glad that things are going so well for you.
