ben came over to our house this morning to play, and the two cousins happily entertained each other. i let them play in the front yard for a bit, kicking the ball around, playing with chalk, and chasing after each other.


then we took a walk around the block (our city blocks are very long!), stopping to sniff flowers, pick up sticks, poking stuff, counting the trees, identifying the different colored cars, marching and jumping.













after the exercise, they were both quite content to snack and play quietly with each other or by themselves until ben was picked up. i popped in some music and got a pretty good chunk of embroidery done while they were busy doing quiet playtime. pretty amazing considering there were two 2 year olds in the house at one time.













it's fun watching them grow up together. especially since they get along so well.

and happy 2nd birthday to benjamin (for real)!


choo..choo!

That video is completely precious! Its so nice to have cousins the same age, isn't it? My oldest sister is expecting a baby boy in November, so my baby will have a same year cousin too! And a boy, which will be great. :D

What video editing software do you use?
