2nd Cousin Anna

Yesterday and today we got to hang out with our second cousin Anna and Hudson. They came in town with their mommy Kate (mommy's cousin) to visit GiGi. Anna is 3 years old and Hudson is 6 weeks old and they live in Minneapolis. We had so much fun together!

looks at my children- PRICELESS!!!!

We played with toys, colored on the aquadoodle, ate mac and cheese and lots of other yummy food, played hide and go seek, played with babies, prete3nded to be babies (we still can't believe mommy put diapers on ALL of us!) played london bridge (Anna's idea), played pretend pirate ship and laughed so much! We got together for a large family dinner Friday night and ate yummy pork tenderloin. It was really neat for Ashley this time because now that she is walking she can more easily play with the big kids; she even played london bridge!!

At first, Anna thought it was confusing that there were 2 Anna's but after a little while she thought it was funny. When you would say Anna, both heads would whip around and say, "huh?" So we all got used to using middle names and calling them Anna Colleen and Anna Kathryn. Anna would call them "Bowf Ahna's (Both Anna's)" and "Two Ahna's (and would count 3,4 (rememebr Anna doesn't count starting at 1; she starts at her favorite number 3!)"

We had so much fun and can't wait for them to visit GiGi again! And maybe Mommy's cousin Kate will give me more root beer. It was Anna's first time having pop and it was Ah-mazing!

Love,
Anna and Ashley
