New Cousin Alexa!

We took a trip up north to visit our newest niece/cousin. Since we make quite a mess these days, we only stayed one night and drove back the next day. It was perfect timing because today was also my mom's birthday so we got to see her today as well. Alexa is only a week and a half old and she is perfect. Jack was excited to see Alexa and keep asking me if she would still be "tiny". But once we got there, he was so excited to see his older cousins, he didn't pay much attention to her. Finally before bed, he asked to hold Alexa. Anna really liked the baby. She was very interested which surprised me because I always think she is the most independent one compared to her sisters. She doesn't interact as much with Kate and Elizabeth and as much as Granddad holds her, we joke she wishes she is the only child :) Kate and Elizabeth pretty much ignored Alexa, except to touch her face (particularly her eyes). Alexa is so tiny, the girls look so grown up next to her!

The girls were into everything!

These girls will have fun together :)
