Last week the Carles came through for a visit for a few days before heading down south to see other family. It was just like old times from when they lived here by us. But it was even more fun this time because Rex and Audryn got to finally meet and we of course got to finally meet Audryn and the Carles got to meet Rex. Jessica and I were pregnant during the same time while they were here and that was fun to have a sister nearby pregnant with me (I've had plenty of sisters pregnant when I'm pregnant, but every time they live far away, except when Sarah and I were pregnant with Audrey and Kayley). Anyway, so Rex and Audryn are very different in great ways. Audryn is younger and walking/running like crazy while Rex is just very content with crawling and only cruising around furniture. Audryn is a busy body and Rex is just content just sitting for a while. Audryn is a bit more vocal and knows a few more words than Rex who is very quiet. It might just be a girl/boy thing, but nonetheless it's fun to see the differences and then to see them still play together like long lost buddies! Here's Rex trying to get Audryn's binky (another difference as Rex has never taken a binky!)
And he got it, but doesn't know what to do with it. all while Audryn is trying to take away his phone!
And then the funniest thing was Rex is very clingy to Nick and I and when it comes to new people, he's usually really shy and clings to us even more. But when it came to JT, he went right to him! Here he is playing with him. I couldn't figure out if maybe Rex thought JT was Andrew who had been living with us for almost a year or not. Either way, it was really cute seeing how he took to him so quickly!
Rex debuted his new PJ's from his big cousins, Sterling & Andrew. He looked so cute in his spider man PJ's!
And then dress-up. Olivia brought out some wigs of the girls for Audryn and Rex to wear! Audryn was a pretty good sport and smiled pretty for us!
It was pulling teeth to get it on Rex! He's all boy remember!! He got very offended with us putting it on him and started crying!
And who did he go to to be consoled? JT!! It was so cute and sweet!!
And Olivia had to model the Rapunzel wig. We decided she makes a better brunette than a blonde!
And sorry to post this JT, but you were the one that posed for the picture! He also makes a better brunette!
And it was really cute because Kayley and Cora waited all day for Olivia to come play with them and Olivia was wanting to visit with us grown-ups. But eventually she did go in and play/coached the girls in dress-up. They had a blast! They played dress-up pretty much all the time after that until they left! Here they are having a tea party on the top bunk!
Cora, Katrina, and Kayley waiting for Olivia to bring them their tea party food!
And three very wiped out kiddos! They all slept on the bottom bunk together and Olivia slept on the top! They were all in 7th heaven! After they left, Kayley kept telling me she wished the Carles lived by us again and they both want to invite Olivia and Katrina to their upcoming birthday party, but don't quite understand that they will be miles away again back in Idaho! We all wish they lived closer again...maybe someday sooner than later! It was definitely a lot of fun to have them over and to visit with them!
