Cousin Joshua, nurse Zachy, and "Charlos"

Alli loves taking care of Charlie and being the big cousin. From the time he was a baby she would stand about 1/2 inch from his face and say, "Hi my sweet cousin!" Even after Jen came home from the hospital Alli would call Joshua "sweet cousin!" I am pretty sure now she has learned to call him her brother.

We were hanging out at the Menlove's a few weekends ago and I heard the funniest, cutest conversation as the kids were in the playroom.
Alli: "Okay, Zachy, you be the doctor."
Zachy: "No, I want to be the nurse."
Alli: "Okay, I'm the doctor and you're the nurse Zachy."
Zach: "Otay!" (while holding Mr. Cuddles and sucking his thumb)
Alli: "Charlie can be sick... Charlie boy, come over here."
Alli: "CHARLOS, CHARLOS, come and play doctor."

Slumber Party!

This weekend we have had a Slumber Party with Grandma. Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night, Grandma had to be out of her house because "there are bugs in it" as Allison says. Grandma's house is being treated for termites and she had to be out of the house all weekend. The kids were excited to have a "slumber party" with Grandma for three nights. The kids are into making "funny faces" for the camera and Grandma is a good sport to follow along!
The weekend isn't even over and Allison is wondering when the next slumber party is going to be!
