Family time with cousins and second cousins! Our first time hosting back here and it was nice having everyone together here. When we had everyone here before, there was only three boys. Now we're up to five boys and one girl.

Having his long stares with food. 

Writing a birthday card for his friend's birthday.
Ah-gong came for a quick visit to see us! He had to go to make a meeting and we needed to head out to judo.

NJ's been asking for bread in the morning. He got his wish because we made a loaf last night! He said he wanted the hazelnut spread. Then he said half hazelnut, half jam. Then he wanted hazelnut, jam, and peanut butter. There was plenty of time still so I gave him his request. His happy smile was well worth it. 
Homework and then writing some cards. 
Happy birthday to Auntie Becca! 
NJ read "Olive My Love" to auntie and uncle earlier, now he's snuggling up with uncle and his magazine. It's always great to hang out and catch up.

A lunch date with our cousin. We used to meet here for breakfast or lunch before we were married or had kids. Now we're here with our husbands and kids. Funny how things change. 

Boys bonding over Legos. How cute. 

We moved the play outside and we were out there until it was almost dark! They climbed and played on the structure, swings, did the monkey bars, rode on trikes, hit tennis balls, frisbee, chased each other, jumped rope, kicked goals with a soccer ball, snacked on fruit... I'm tired just thinking about how much they did! I joined in on some of it too. I'm sure I'll be paying for it tomorrow with being sore and exhausted, but it was fun. It's too bad we can't make our yard as play friendly. It's still more play friendly than our last house at least. Well, it was a really fun day spending it with family. If only we lived a little closer. 
NJ got a new game from his cousin Cooper, Rush Hour. NJ and Baba took turns playing. Baba tried the hardest level.
