Baby World

We spent this past weekend in my husband's hometown, spending Easter with all his family and wishing his mom a happy 81st birthday. We had the privilege of meeting three new members of the family, all born in the last few months, and visiting with the recent one-year-old and a new big sister to twin girls.

Throughout Saturday as people arrived at the house got noisier, busier and messier. At one point Wayne's niece Chelsea, who is visiting from California, walked into the living room, looked around at the chaos and said, "It's Baby World!"

Grandkids and great-grandkids (minus Nicole's three girls.)

And there are more and more photos of all the shenanigans. Our girls' toys were a big hit with all the little ones who came through the door, despite Marissa's attempts to keep them out of the reach of "the toddlers."

The kids were especially entertaining, and when we got tired of watching them we found a deck of cards and entertained ourselves. It was good to watch the new generation of cousins playing together.

Playing a game of "Up and Down the River."

A good time was had by all.
