Cousins Cousins Cousins!

Our boys are so lucky - they have so many little cousins! Family is the most important thing in the world to me and it makes me feel so happy to know that our precious boys come from such a big, loving family. At last count, the boys have 7 cousins (there will be more) - my sister Anney and her husband Andy have 3 boys, Joseph (10), Timmy (8) and Elijah (nearly 5), my brother Mal and his wife Lindy have 2 girls Sophie (7) and Aimee (nearly 4), my sister Fi and her partner Scotty had little baby Abbey 2 days ago and Jimmy sister Sarah and her partner Matt have Miki (8 months)......Jett is great friends with Elijah and Aimee and Ollie will hopefully be great friends with his little cousins, Miki and Abbey :)

We went up to Sydney on Sunday, just after I'd met little Abbey in hospital, for Sarah's 30th birthday and we got some cute photos of the boys with Miki. Miki is just the happiest little thing - sometimes her face looks so serious, like she's really concentrating on something and then you just have to look sideways and her whole face lights up with a big smile!

The face says it all!

Ollie just loves being on the trampoline - he tries to bounce by bending his legs but he hasn't worked out how to get any air off the mat. If I try to call him off the tramp he just runs to the other side where I can't reach him - in fact, this is what he does around the house too.....if I call him over to me, he thinks it's a bit game and just runs away giggling!

His latest little game is when we're all watching TV at night, he runs up to the TV and pretends to turn it off. As soon as he puts his finger on the 'off' button, Jimmy, Jett and I all say "NO Ollie!" and he turns around and gives us this huge cheeky smile. Then he does it over and over again, laughing his little head off.

He's a real sneak too - Ollie just loves water and as soon as we have our backs turned, he sneaks down the hallway to our bathroom and climbs into the shower - we'll find him in there a few minutes later, slapping his hands on the shower floor and splashing in the water. Another favourite of his is toilet paper - if we haven't shut the toilet doors, he sneaks in there, grabs hold of the toilet paper end and pulls it off as fast as he can - if he wasn't such a gorgeous little thing, I spose I'd get quite annoyed about it :)

Look at that little face....he is just the cheekiest little thing!
