First Sleepover

We had our first cousins' sleepover a few week-ends ago. Six kids and we had so much fun. With two babies (7 months and 9 months), we were reminded of what life was like when the boys were babies. Of course, when they were babies, we didn't have a helpful 5-year old to step in for baby-holding and we didn't have three three-year-olds (yes, that's right) to keep the babies entertained... :) The boys were so sad when their cousins left, but we told them there are many more sleepovers awaiting them in the future.

Mmm... oreos. Way fun.
Shea is Cash's biggest fan. She spent every waking moment trying to get to Cash... grab his face... give him kisses. What Cash had, Shea wanted. It was so cute.

How did we survive baby twins?! I have no idea!

Reese lost her very first tooth while biting into an apple right before bedtime. What fun for us that it was the first time the tooth fairy showed up at our apartment! Also fun was the fact that I lost my first tooth in an apple, too.

Naturally, I was thrilled to death when all four of the bigger kids were up for an art project. Reese wowed us with her adorable bumblees and the boys all painted their own verstions of black and gold batman. The batmen were truly abstract.

Walker and the boys basically chased each other and/or wrestled non-stop, but they even got Reese to join in for a little bit. Woo-hoo!!! I'm telling you, the volume was through the roof!

"Come here, cuz!"

"Gotcha!"

Walker is totally baby crazy. It's awesome. When Shea wasn't chasing Cash, Walker was chasing Shea. Good thing Shea is used to 3-year old boys!! :)


Shea has a total of 5 (almost 6) boy cousins and two brothers, but only one girl cousin. I'm so glad she'll have Reese!!

Jaxon, keeping Cash from eating Lightening McQueen.

Cash and Jax, hanging out.

These photos of Dex just make me smile. They're SO "Dex." Sweet smile...

Silly smirk...

Jax and Walker, playing cars.

I think the highlight of the sleepover for the three boys was when D.R. helped them make a jumbo-fort. It completely took over the living room and the boys were so, SO sad when we had to take it down!

Et, voila...
