A Big Fun Day With Cousin Rose, Grace, & Jack

We spent a fun day with Memere, Pepere, and Cousin Rose. They drove up from Massachusetts this morning and met us in Portland at the YMCA to watch Grace's swimming lesson. Grace lit up when they walked into the pool area. We were excited for Rose to meet Jack for the first time! After swimming we all enjoyed a nice lunch together followed by a little shopping. Bob and I loved watching Jack, Grace, and Rose interact together. Grace and Rose share a mutual admiration for each other and are so sweet together! Thank you Memere, Pepere, and Rose for this special day we shared.

So pretty in pink ~ girl cousins and handsome Jack! Missing seeing Kimberlee this time :(

These pictures are such a sharing of love between Rose and Grace. I know that they will be friends forever, sharing special moments and probably a few secrets, too! Kimberlee will be joining in the girl love-fest, too. And Jack, he'll be the cute little boy who will need to get away from all the giggling sometimes! Though, by the looks of Jack's smile he seems to be right into it! Such memories. Yesterday sounds like just another step on the path. I love this.

PS, a HUGE hello to all of our family in Leominister!

Visiting together was like a warm, sunny day in the middle of winter.
We relished each moment. Grace and Rebecca are a pretty aquatic team; you could tell that the instructor enjoys working with them and appreciates Grace's cooperation and love for the water.
Seeing Rob carrying Jack in the baby sling was a tender scene. Rebecca and Rob, you are wonderful, loving parents.
Rose loved, loved her time with her cousins, as you can tell from these super pictures. When it was time to go, she was sad. There never seems to be enough together time when you love someone, and she and Grace just light up when they see each other. We feel the same way.
We are looking forward to our next trip, which can't come fast enough.
XOXOXO,
Memere

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
