Aunt Mary

Audrey and Abby were able to visit with their Aunt Mary today. Aunt Mary is Caleb's sister who lives in Olympia, WA. She was in town so we went over to Bossier to Jennifer's house (another Caleb sister) to visit. We had a great visit. I only wish Mary lived closer. She's a lot of fun and she and I have a lot in common. But for now, we will settle for visits. Just know that you are loved and missed in Louisiana, Mary!

Audrey and Megan stayed outside most of the afternoon with the older cousins (thanks, Tracy and Tyler) and Abby hung out with the adults and watched Dora. In the picture below, you can see Mary trying to coax Abby over with a doll, but with no luck. Nothing comes between Abby and Dora. Don't worry though, before the afternoon ended, Abby was in Mary's arms!
In the following photo, you will see just how intense she is when she watches Dora. She is so absolutely precious, right??!!

By the time we left, Abby was worn out. She was fussy, tired and hungry. Audrey, being the sweet big sister, was giving her a life lesson: "Abby, baby, I know you are sad. You want to stay and play with Megan and Buddy (the dog), don't you? It's okay, sweetie. We will come back again and play. All good things come to an end. That's just life."

What sweet, funny girls we have!!!

emma likes to give life lessons like that...and then trip jack as he is walking down the hall. they are so very supportive and kind to one another! that cracks me up how abby does not play around when it comes to dora. i bet one day you ask her a question and she answers in espanol. dad will probably then take her to one of his "ambassador of mexico" meetings and have her translate!!
