Steiner Cousins, Woot Woot!

We were so excited to have Aunt Monica and Cousin Rylee come for a visit last month. (Rylee is six weeks older than Mason.) While most babies are sort of oblivious to other babies when they're that young, Rylee and Mason seemed to be very interested in each other. Like they knew they are going to be buddies. And Avery enjoyed being "in charge" of all the babies. And the adults too, for that matter.

"Hey Cousin, scoot over!"

"Much better!"

Rockin' on the porch

Avery discovers Aunt Mona's suitcase and models some "big girl undies."

We took the babies downtown for a fancy lunch. They requested a booth.

Matching sleepyheads.

We took about a thousand shots trying to get a couch pic of all three of them. This is the best one I got.

...and this is my favorite outtake from that photo shoot.

I don't exactly remember where this came from. I think maybe we made it up to get Avery excited to smile for pictures. And then maybe we were recreating it for Chris? At any rate, it was pretty silly.
