French Reunion

Today was the day of the French Reunion. I went up in the morning with Nico, and then came back down so he could have his nap. After Nico's nap, just Guy and Nico went back up to the cabin. From what I heard, they had a great time!

It was quite a hot day today, and we're trying to figure out how to cool the house down. When it gets this hot, our heat pump stops being very effective. It's at least 83 degrees in here based on our thermostat. We're thinking of utilizing the power of FANS!

No pictures from the reunion, but I'm sure there will be some in the future! Here is Guy reading books to Nico before bedtime. New books for him from Molly! Baby Elmo books.

Cousins and 2nd Cousins and More

Today Nico got to see a lot of family. This morning I took him up to the cabin to see some of my cousins and Aunts and Uncles. He also saw Leia (3rd cousin?) for the 2nd time in his life!

This evening we all went to Chicago Connection Pizza for the first get together of the French Reunion Weekend. A LOT of family to see. Nico fell while climbing one of the railings, and gave himself a gash just outside his left eye. He cried really hard for a while. It is certainly the worst he's ever been hurt, but he recovered fairly quickly and he seemed to enjoy being around all the other little ones running around.
