Wine and Rice: Not ready to share

The cousins have been spending some quality time together and lets just say one of the cousins is not ready to share yet. No, no, no it is not my son. While he does steal every one's toys or hits the others, he is okay with the idea of sharing. Mattie on the other hand is having a difficult time sharing with Braylon and Liam. First, she does not want them near any of her toys. Then she does not want them near her grandma. As soon as my mom picks up one of the boys, Mattie will get upset and demand grandmas full attention immediately. While, frustrating after a while it is quite cute. Braylon loves to be around other little kids and to play with them. And if they have food to share all the better for him. Well, Mattie does not want to share her food with Braylon. She was eating Cheerios and Braylon was trying to get to them. Mattie kept getting up and running away from him. Braylon was frustrated but it was funny to watch.

Here is a tiny video of Braylon trying to play with Mattie and Mattie wanting absolutely nothing to do with him. Sorry about the bad quality.

This was basically how their whole day went. Mattie would go play with something, Braylon would follow and Mattie would leave. At one point Mattie and i were sitting on the couch and I asked her about having cousins and she said she does not like them and wants it to only be her. I thought it was funny. By the way she is two and a half and an only child. I find the way her little mind works to be very amusing.

I attempted to take some photos of the three cousins together. Now remember this is an attempt. Taking photos of multiple babies is VERY difficult. It was hard and I did not get them all to look at me at the same time but I did come away with some pretty cute ones so enjoy!

Liam looking very cute, but Braylon and Mattie are concerned with Grandma

Not sure what Mattie is doing

Liam thinks Braylon and Mattie are CRAZY. He is probably right.

They are so funny together. Braylon has even got Liam to start crawling a little. He wants to be on the move like his cousins are. I would not blame him. It is not fun to be left behind while the others are off exploring and getting into trouble! Oh by the way Mattie is two and a half, Braylon is 10 months and Liam is 5 months. I see a lot of trouble and destruction to happen at family functions in the near future.

While out here we have also been busy with some of my friends. Yesterday, I went over to my friend Sarah's house to play with her three daughters, Aidence (5yrs), Aivery (2yrs) and Adelyn (11months), and our other friend Lela came with her two kids, Talan (4yrs) and Ainsley (2yrs). It was a full house. Braylon has never been around that many big kids before. He was in awe of them. Most of the time he sat back and watched them play while he took apart cords.

I have some photos but they are of a very poor quality! I will share but remember I warned you.
