Josh's cousin, Brad, and his wife, Amanda, hosted Thanksgiving for Josh's side of our family this year at their beautiful home in Austin. Brad and Amanda have 2 children - Haylee (6) and Connor (2 - just 4 days older than Jacob). We had SUCH a good time! Ruth did great in the car and we enjoyed her getting to meet so many people on this side of our family, including Ruth's (Josh's mother) 2 sisters, Betty and Agnes and Betty's husband, John - Betty and John had never met Jacob nor Ruth, so this was special. We were so glad to get to see some Tennessee family, too - Josh's cousin, Kim and her two children, Mallory and Chase were there. Jacob had a blast playing with his cousins and seemed to feel right at home! Josh had a great time with Brad and his brother, Curtis enjoying some laughs and football along with their cousin Chase. Ruth Evelyn slept really well and I got to have some ladies' time and enjoyed seeing my children loved on by family! Thank you to Brad and Amanda!

Haylee and Jacob playing outside
Teaching Jacob how it works
These pictures make me smile as I look at toddler play and learning to take turns. Jacob was NOT so sure about giving Connor a turn...
Haylee has a sweet "Mama's" heart already - she helped Jacob down the stairs and was such a good play mate with him and Connor!
Feeling loved by Aunt Kim
Everyone was just in awe of how much older Ruth seems than 6 1/2 weeks!
Cousin generations: Kim, Haylee, and Ruth
The girls with Uncle Johnny
Beautiful Haylee loved holding Ruth
Ruth was getting a bit tired, so Brad told Haylee how to use the soothie - Ruth approved!
Brad is good with the little ones!
Uncle Curtis is awesome!
He gets a signature Ruth Evelyn smile!

Ready to play! He found a ball - life is good!
My 2 JPs! Aren't they handsome!
Josh came in and told me Jacob had figured out on his own how to climb up this play set! I had to see for myself! My boy is SO big! WOW how the time has flown!
Here I go Mama!
