Seven Months Old











These past few weeks have been filled with family visits! Twin cousin Amelia and her mom, Monica and her grandma Maria came from Orlando (and Thailand) to visit and we got to spend some time with new cousin Lanna and her mom, Yoko and dad, Chris, as well. It is always fun to see Amelia because she and Everett were born on the exact same day. Everett thought she was especially tasty as he kept trying to take a bite out of her (but she quickly crawled away during each "attack"). We were hoping that watching Amelia crawl would inspire our little man, but no such luck. He is happy as can be just sitting and chewing on ANYTHING he can get his big hands on.

We just returned from four days out in Boulder, Colorado visiting Jenni, Will and our adorable nieces, Lucette and Violet. We always love going to Boulder, the weather is always sunny and crisp and we truly enjoy the little ones. We got a chance to see WVU play Colorado and although we had a wonderful time at the game and at dinner beforehand (the kids stayed home with a babysitter, so it was rare night out for Ben and I), WVU lost in overtime :( Thank goodness my parents are currently on a cruise in Europe and did not have to watch the game live (I don't think my mom could have taken it!).

Everett was a good traveler (although he refused to sleep on either flight!), and got three teeth while we were in Boulder, which translated into a few tough nights for mom and dad. He is such a happy little man and continues to be the light of our life. How did we get so lucky? We ask ourselves that each day. Everett truly amazes us. Here are some pictures of our trip and visit with Amelia and Lanna!

We loved visiting with y'all again! Amelia is pleased as punch to be "twin cousins" with Everett!
