Cousins!

This weekend, Michael and I flew up to Boston to surprise Mimi and see Doc, Courtney and our new cousin/niece Rebecca! Mimi was very surprised - Doc and Courtney planned it so Mimi thought they were at the grocery store. Doc carried in Michael as the "groceries" and Mimi was so excited!!! Poor sleepy Michael was greeted with such excited voices and expressions, and he didn't know what to do except... SCREAM, so that was a pretty entertaining beginning to the weekend.

It was so wonderful seeing Michael and Rebecca together, and hoping and praying for their continued development, health and friendship. It makes me so excited to have Smith family get togethers since Michael will have a buddy to play with!

We enjoyed relaxing all together, sharing the feeding times between the two little ones - it was a wonderful time!

I love this picture for so many reasons - Rebecca's looking around, Courtney looks great, and Michael is just... being Michael.
