Cousin Love

Last night, JD came over to spend the night so Jon and Mandy could enjoy an evening to themselves. They are returning the favor today and are keeping Miss K...sounds like a great, new, repeatable plan to me!
JD loves to be outside and convinced his Uncle Dan to go out and throw the ball. Daniel would throw the ball and JD would run get it. He had a blast and was not ready to come in even though it started to get a little cold.

The two kiddos did really well playing together. JD loves to share his toys and was always giving Kenna something new to play with. Once she had played with that for a while, he would bring her something else and exchange it for the older toy.

At one point in the evening, JD decided to give Kenna some love.....

Miss K has decided that hands and knees may actually be a more efficient way to crawl. She will still drop to her tummy and army crawl occasionally but has gotten a lot better at being on all fours over the last three days. Tornado Kenna has officially hit our house and left a trail of destruction.
My favorite part of the evening was probably when everybody was getting ready for bed. I got pajamas on everybody and sat both kids up on the couch with Daniel. I gave JD his bottle and went to fix Kenna's (she is still very picky about the temperature). I think Kenna was ready for a bottle and wanted to take JD's. Look at the way she is eyeing his bottle!

Then she decided to just go for it....

She has always like to have something in her hand to play with while she is eating and would prefer for us to hold the bottle (that would be too much work for the little princess). When it was her turn last night, she got her daddy to hold the bottle for her while she rubbed JD's ear and the back of his neck.Apparently he is a little ticklish....:)
Miss K and JD were perfect little angels last night and both went right to sleep without a single cry. Fun, fun evening of cousin time. We will have to do it again with all of the cousins!!

That's something I would like to see - an all-cousin slumber party! I'm so glad that JD was good for you guys. KayKay has done just great this evening too!
