Before & After

    

Travels to IL & KY (2017)

We enjoyed our visits with Tim's brothers and their families and were able to see all of our nieces. There was lots of playing with and snuggling of babies on this trip. :-) 

First night -- stayed at a hotel where we all went swimming before crashing for the night.

Cousins!

 Being silly with Papa

Trying to make B laugh -- they were successful.

Playing with B.

Kentucky! First time for Michelle & the kids

And finally at our KY destination.... and lots of pics with Baby A

Apparently he didn't want his photo taken... lol

Where we had dinner (frog legs were on the menu -- Welcome to southern cousine!)

Tim and Baby A

Watching Phineas & Ferb ... the Star Wars episode

Guess who loves holding babies?

So sweet.

Even though he tried to play it cool, you can tell he liked his newest cousin.

Cousins!

Seriously, she adores babies.

She looks so little here..

Silly faces!

They're glowing!

Brothers!

Selfies w/ the baby

Feeding her cousin like a pro!

Such a good mommy :-)

Thinking hard... "What will my next move be?"

 Daddy & his little girl

Baby A was not too sure about this...
