aunt susie's visit

as most of you already know, russ's sister susan and her family live in virginia so we don't get to see them often. they decided to come down and visit right after christmas and it was such a treat!

all 9 cousins together, a rarity

russell was SO shy at first, but it didn't last long!

natalie was busy chattin it up with EVERYONE!

she just LOOOOVES her aunt susie -- her cousins too -- but no one compares to aunt susie!


dylan brought his wii with him and this dance game was the BEST!

we had so much fun while they were here. dylan stayed with us most of the time and once again, we had our "third child" back :) russ and dylan stayed up late every night playing the wii or snacking and watching tv. natalie enjoyed playing with her cousins and little russell opened up a lot with his communication/speech.

we can't wait to see them again!
