Sisters, Brothers, and COUSINS!

We are so lucky that Lauren, Tommy, and baby Emmett could spend a month here with us. Sidney and Emmett are just 5 months apart, making for lots of sweet cousin moments. For Lauren and me, it is so special to go through mothering together. We nursed side by side, whispered during naps, and took many walks with our strollers or ergo carriers riding parallel. Avery and Zeal showed great care with Emmett. Avery often said, "He's so cute, I just want to bite my teeth together really hard." Just short of nibbling on Emmett, we gave him lots of cuddles. 




Tommy is always a Hanson boy magnet; now he really has his hands full:





Mimi and Opa gave us a night off. We went to town.

Lauren and Sid look so much alike, it's startling.


Same eyes! I could see the resemblance the minute he was born. 





Dad and Lauren on a nature hike learning about the glacial shaping of the island and the coastal heathland plants.



Cousins who nap together stay together.


Katie and Peter came for the weekend for a whole family gathering.


Peter and Avery both speak the same language: maritime.






Peter looks good in everything.


Brothers-in-law are now Team Papa (a.k.a. the early morning crew)



We miss you already, Emmett! See you in a few months...
