Visiting with Cousin Louie

We have had the opportunity to see Cousin Louie quite a bit this summer -- and we are loving it!  My sister has the summer off from teaching and lives about 25 minutes away, making for some spur-of-the-moment visits.  Louie is such a good baby and seems to just rest whenever we see him.  Even amongst the chaos of my three kids running around, he doesn't seem to be the least bit disturbed.

My heart melts when I watch the girls holding their little cousin (especially when they use the boppy pillow that I used exclusively with them when they were little).

"Fish lip" kisses for Louie:

Samantha is so proud of him and can't stop staring at his little features:

And Jack?  Well he is just plain intrigued by him.  On this particular visit, he crawled over as soon as Aunt Minnie unbuckled him out of the car seat.

On another visit, he couldn't resist touching him the second that we laid Louie down on the floor.  Jack needs to learn the word, "gentle" now.  While he isn't aggressive by any means, he needs to be able to control his stronger arms (and pointed fingers) a little bit better!
