This weekend we got to meet L’s newest little cousin, as well as visit with the older generation.

We went to the Nevada County Fair, which had loads of rides, games, food, music,  animals and exhibits.

After watching her fearless cousin tackle walking on water in a big bubble, L had to give it a try!

Yesterday we went with Grandma to see Lucy’s cousin starring as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz at her school.

Lucy is a big fan of putting on shows, and she loved it…she was on the edge of her seat. We envision a lot of plays and shows in our future.

There were no photos of the show allowed, so we just snapped some before and after pics. It was a lot of fun, and we look forward to the next one. Congrats on a wonderful play!

She talks about them, refers to Wubert and most of her toys as her cousins, and really looks forward to seeing them at family get togethers. She loves to hang out with the big kids.

Here are some pics of her being a big girl with her cousins at grandma’s for Thanksgiving.

“everybody play blocks!” Lucy said…and they did!

Lucy had a hard time leaving her big cousins to go home…but happily proclaimed ‘see you at Christmas!’

In addition to her aunts and uncles and the birthday Gma, Lucy got to see a big chunk of her cousins. She loves to hang out with the big kids!

She was very happy to be included in their hide-and-seek game, and hid very well (without her usual “I’m in here!” shouts to give her away).

When we got home (and after a sufficiently refreshing nap) she proudly told us her cousins were all big girls, and that she was a big girl too.

p.s. Good luck in your new home, Nina and Larry! We’ll miss you!
