Is the child of your cousin still your cousin? If so, then that's who Kylie spent the day playing with. If it isn't, then Kylie spent the day playing with some boy who isn't her cousin. Nat's cousin Emily had to go back to work, so Nat volunteered to watch her 5 month old (Liam) for a couple days this week. Luckily, we had a supporting cast, because taking care of two babies isn't as easy as it sounds. It sounds easy....right?
Watching them play together was pretty funny. They both thought the same toys and same space was the best place to be. Can you imagine the scene? Two x month olds clambering on top of each other without actually seeming interested in the fact that they were invading each others personal space. It made me wonder what would happen if adults operated without any concept of personal space. If anyone tries it let me know how it goes.
Other funny moment for today. I was at work (computer training) but Nat, Kylie, and Melissa were home. Kylie was sitting on Melissa's lap while Nat stood right in front of her (Kylie not Melissa) feeding her banana. Kyle got a wild hair and decided that Nat's belly button looked an awful lot like a nipple (I know. I know. It's not even an outie). With a mouthful of banana she started trying to suckle on the belly button....but....that's not all. Our little monkey may be young but she catches on quickly. In a matter of seconds she realized that no milk was coming from the belly button so she started trying everything in her power to shimmy like a monkey up Nat's body, to reach the real milk makers. Unfortunately (for her not us), she isn't such a great climber yet so Melissa started pushing on her bottom to give her a lift. With every muscle in her body Kylie worked to climb the tree (A.K.A her mom) as she laughed hysterically and spit banana all over Nat (this got Nat and Melissa laughing like crazy too). It ended in a crazy fit of laughter and flying fruit, but we wouldn't have it any other way.
More to come soon,

p.s. We are finally getting pictures back! Some are a few days old now, but hey at least we have some photos.

| Poor Jackson. He never saw her coming. |
 |
| Uh oh! the picking on boys has begun. Does that mean she likes him? |
 |
| Jackson and Kylie are proving that adult's really need children to keep them in shape |
 |
| Even on Thanksgiving the teacher is never off duty. She had to make sure Jordyn and Adam understood the proper way to do Patty Cake |
 |
| A whole family picture? Almost as rare as a unicorn |
 |
| Good work Kylie. When a boy gets too close, just slowly back away |
 |
| If only the fire marshal could see us now |
