We're riding in the car when Max starts talking from the backseat..."Why is Hudson my cousin?" My reply: "Cari is my sister, so any of her kids will be your cousins. It will be the same when Uncle Devin and Aunt Bug have kids they will be your cousins too-because they are also my brother and sister." To which he says, "No. (pause) I think it's because God knew I'd love him so much that He made him my cousin." Yep Buddy you got it! AWWW!
This was going to be The Boys' very first sleep over together. I don't know who was more excited the two little boys or Uncle Jake! hehe!
Jake and Cari had lots of fun things for the boys to do. I didn't hear a peep from Max all night or even early the next morning. In fact when I called to check on him and see if he was ready to come home I heard him tell Cari something along the lines of "Tell her not to come yet." When I did show, somewhere close to NOON(!) he still didn't want to leave.
Max and Hudson can see each other every single day-and everyday it's the same greeting...like they haven't seen each other in years. I am so grateful for my family, for the way they love my kids. I know that my children are loved just as much in their homes as they are in our home. Thanks Cari.

I love this post! You do have a wonderful family! Max and Hudson are terrific! We miss them (as well as you too)! Maybe we can get the boys all together when we are there for Thanksgiving!
Is that just not the cutest pictures of them hugging!? Hudson looks very grown up in the pictures. I haven't seen him in a long time. It was shocking!
That is so nice that he lives just down the street from his cousin and they are such good friends.
It makes me sad that my girls are mising out on having cousins they are close with like I had growing up. (YOU!) They don't get to spend enough time with their cousins at all.
XOXO!
