Extended family...

Ryan is SO lucky to not only have grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins that adore him, but tons of extended family members like second cousins, great aunts and uncles, and even a great-great aunt and uncle, that all love seeing him. This week we make a special visit to my Great Auntie Lou and Great Uncle Louie's house so they could spend time with their great-great nephew. If you follow this blog, you know Auntie Lou and Uncle Louie hold a spacial place in my heart as the host and hostess of all the amazing Christmas Eve dinners past. When we got to their house, Ryan made himself right at home - playing, running around and just being his normal happy go lucky self. Then, fueled by a 3 cookie sugar high, he treated them to several renditions of his favorite Barney song "I love you", even hugging them during the song. Seeing the smiles on their faces made me so glad we took time out of the week to visit them. Looking forward to seeing them on our next visit to Massachusetts.
