New Cousin

Ivory finally met Carter! She greeted him with clapping and gleeful squeals. She also proceeded to "pet" him with a little-too-hard tap to the head which resulted in a groan from poor baby Carter. Ivory didn't know what to think. She thought she was doing good tapping not grabbing, after all, isn't that what you do with Angel, the cat?! Later, she helped Daddy & Ben take care of Carter while the moms went for a quick shopping trip to revisit sister time. The dads reported that she helped pat Carter's back when he was gassy and enjoyed cuddle time with Uncle Ben. She also enjoys tackle football with the guys while Carter naps and snuggles with the girls. Ivory loves Canadian rocks and enjoys banging them on the deck. She also enjoys testing Carter's new toys & baby equpiment. Her stamp of approval has been given on most items.

The weather has been chilly, but enjoyable and a relief from our hot already summer Florida weather. We have exciting plans to visit a Farmer's Market, Mennonite Museum, Niagra Falls, Ben's family's, and other fun plans. We also enjoyed visiting their church on Sunday. Most of all, we're just enjoying family time and wishing we could do this more often.
