Cousin Love

Once upon a time, sweet Sadie Jane entered our lives. Everyone was ecstatic about the new addition except for one little lady. Laurel wasn't sure about this new person and how much attention she seemed to get. Somewhere along the way, Laurel got over herself and has become totally obsessed with Sadie. No lie, the biggest fit I have ever seen her throw was leaving MDO on Tuesday because we walked out with Nat Nat and Sadie and when they went the opposite direction to their car, she totally lots it. Screamed and cried all the way to pick up Micah. When he got in the car, he looked at her and said "Mommy, what is wrong with Laurel? She has big tears!" and then she started up again with "SAAAAAADIE!!!!!!" After this episode I called Nat and demanded a play date this week! She and Sadie came over this morning and spent the day with us. Micah wanted to take Sadie for a ride in the Jeep so we let him "tow" his wagon which he thought was super cool. Sadie LOVED riding in the wagon and was so smiley that Laurel decided she wanted to ride in the wagon too!

 We cruised all over the neighborhood and then headed to the park. Fun was had by all and all 3 of them were worn out by the time we cruised home for lunch.

They all napped while Nat and I worked on birthday party planning for Sadie's first birthday and Micah and Laurel's joint super hero bash (details coming soon). When Sadie woke up and it was time to leave, it was quite the event. Micah and Laurel climbed into her car and hugged and kissed on her and begged for them to stay. We need to be having cousin play dates more often!
