It's A Bird, It's A Plane, It's Fun!

If Molly could have "her girls" around her every waking moment, she would be pretty happy. She's always chirping about her cousins and even when she is bone tired and falling asleep in her food, she would prefer to keep these ladies right with her and never let them go home. It's quite cute (and nice for me since I usually get to hang out with Mary and this weekend we even got the whole famdamily together). What's especially funny is to watch the dynamic amongst all the kids develop: Katy imparts her sage advice, Molly tries to organize everyone into random pursuits, Emmy keeps us apprised of what Baby Jack is doing and what is safe or not, and Jack just tries to keep up with everyone else and stay right in the thick of things. Oh, we love them all so much.

We have been listening to, and taking sneak peeks at, the Blue Angels for the past several days since they've been rehearsing by our house for their big performances this weekend. We checked out the real show yesterday and John and I thought Jack would go bananas with all the planes since he generally goes out of his mind for planes, trains, and automobiles. Nope. He was far more interested in the dogs that people were walking and the popsicle he got to eat. We walked back down to the lake for another air show today and the crazy-banana-antics did end up coming out... for the helicopters, which weren't doing any tricks whatsoever. He could not get enough of the twirly birds that were hovering... just hovering.

Okay, so I give up on predicting what my kids are going to love other than their cousins (and ice cream).






I'm stealing these pictures from Eric since I still can't pictures off John's phone. Thank you!
