The one with some cousins.

Luca and I got up early to head to Sara's today. Hannah and Heidi came over for dinner--it's been way too long since we've seen them! 

Luca loves the jams Aunt Kenz got for him. He plays with the cuffs forever when he's in them. They are a beautiful built in toy for him. 

Then we headed over to see Sara and Grant. We brought the walker for Luca since they have all hard floor and he can go anywhere! Grant had a blast pulling and pushing him around all over as fast as he could. Luca didn't have as much fun. 

After Grant's nap he was being a weirdo and hid behind the counter. I still don't know why. 

 

Then Hannah and her boyfriend Jessi came--he was super sweet! We chatted a bunch and caught up on our lives. 

Grant stole corn on the cob and ate it outside. 

Sara made hamburgers--and when Hannah and jessi got there she awkwardly asked, "you're not like vegetarian are you?" And if course the response was yes they were. So that wasn't embarrassing or anything. 

Luckily she had other food and she pulled that out and everyone left satisfied. 

Then Heidi came and played with Luca.

Luca gets to play with everyone. :)

Grant attempted to feed Heidi and ant at one point. He's taken to carrying them around apparently. Luckily she noticed before he got it on her tongue. 

He kept it in his telescope and in the back of his bike. Because of course the dead squished ant needs safe keeping. 

Then he searched for more. 

Boys will be boys. 

Grant kept sitting on Luca to watch YouTube shows on the iPad so I put it in the bumbo to keep him off, thinking he'd take it out and go sit somewhere but it clearly makes an excellent holder, so he just left it there to watch.

We had a fabulous night catching up! 

Luca of course fell asleep on the way home--and is still currently awake chatting with dad. Shouldn't he be a little tired at least?? Good grief. 

The one with cute cousins

Sara and Grant came up to play today!! Thank you swapping. 

Grant is seriously so sweet with Luca. He always wants to hold him, kiss him and do everything like him and with him. I can't even remember the last time he hit him! That is some serious progress for an almost 2 year old. 

Luca napped shortly after they got there and when he woke up grant went right up there to try to comfort him. You can't see him well but he's there behind the bars talking to him. And then I came in and asked him to make Luca feel better so he held his hand. :)

After I changed his diaper and he was all happy I decided to get some laundry put away so I put him on his mat--and grant climbed right under there with him and just chatted away. It was adorable. He's pointing to something under there and they are both looking at it. :)

I can't wait for Luca to be a little older and learn things from his big boy cousin. They are going to be besties. 

After they left Luca and I just hung out and waited for dad to get off work. 

He's getting so big I can't stand it. He's holding his head up like a rock star lately--which I totally have Thomas to thank for. Kelly and I put them to do tummy time together on Friday and Thomas is so good at it, I was hoping Luca would take note and learn and he did!! Yay for friends close in age to learn from too. We need to get together more often!
