Cousins and LiLi

The Ruston cousins came over yesterday to play.  They also came to see LiLi.  Abby and Madeline's relationship is complicated.  I'm certain they love each other because they are family, but sometimes I am not sure they like each other.  Abby's 2 months older than Madeline and that makes Madeline sooooo mad!!  Madeline is taller and just a little bigger than Abby and that makes Abby sooooo mad.  "Why is she bigger if I am older?"  I suppose this will go on for the next 20 years or so.......ha!  They are BOTH precious; that's certain!

Audrey LOVES Julia.  In fact, she loves all babies.  She spent most of the afternoon playing and holding Julia.  Sweet baby girl!

We love that LiLi comes over practically every Sunday.  The girls love to play with their LiLi.  It is even more fun when the cousins come, too.

As a side note, Poppa and Honey have started charm bracelets for Audrey and Emma (and the other girls when they get bigger).  They bought them James Avery charm bracelets and the summer after each school year they get to pick a charm.  So, by the time they graduate from high school, they will have a charm bracelet full of memories.  So neat!  Audrey had a hard time narrowing down her charm choice.  I tried to get her to get peas in a pod because she was a pea in her 1st grade class.  She quickly reminded me that she had strep throat and didn't even go to school the day of the play.  She also considered a few beach charms because we went to Watercolor with the family during Easter break.  She finally ended up choosing an artist's palette because she LOVES her art class with Mrs. Renee!  She's excited to get it.  What a neat idea!
