Billie's Here!




Billie is Magnus' 3rd cousin from FL and she and her parents have been visiting us this week. We are having a GREAT time, and are trying very hard to convince them to move up here so they can enjoy our company much more often. Ruth and I had the exact same due date for our babies (can we still call them that?), but Billie was born a week before Magnus. Magnus is much bigger, (Billie comes up to his ear) but Billie wins the mobility prize as she can walk much better! The first day they fought over the car and tried to steal each other's toys all the time, but now they're playing together better, and Magnus follows her everywhere. Although, as you can tell from the "pantry raiders" photo, Magnus was quite peeved at Billie right then. You know why? He was trying to empty the shelves of the spices like a good little boy, and she kept messing up his efforts by picking them up and putting them back on the shelf! He was not impressed! It kind of reminded me of Joe and I. I'm always putting things away before he's done with them! =)
