Cousins!

Last week Alex met his cousins Ben and Tyler Weader for the first time. (Actually, they are Matt's first cousins, but are close in age with our little guy) Ben is almost 2 1/2 and Tyler is 5 weeks old! They are both such sweet boys and we enjoyed spending time with them. I loved hearing Ben say "Baby Alex" in his sweet little voice!

Alex also took his first trip to Knoebel's Amusement Park with Ben, Tyler, Ethan, and Lauren. Knoebel's is a such great place! I spent many, many fun days there as a child. Being there with Alex made me so excited for all of the fun times we will have over the next few years! Alex loved watching all of the activity.

We played the fishing game (everybody wins!)

We watched Ben ride in the red car.

We also were soaking wet because of the unexpected rain! We waited out a few heavy downpours under various covered locations (food stands, ticket stands, trees) and then finally decided to take Alex on the Merry-go-round. Just as the ride was about to begin Alex fell asleep on Matt's lap! Oh well! We will certainly be back to Knoebel's again soon!
