The Nieces in Texas

So, Sarah and Momma Donna and I took little Hannah Mo (AKA Hannah Boo or B'nana) out to Austin to meet her cousins and aunt. Apart from a small mid-air melt-down (on H's part) and a solid head cold (on Daddy's part), the trip was a smashing success.

Hannah has five cousins in Texas. Here they are:


1. Ruth, the oldest- Ruth stays busy with school and with the business of being the oldest sister.

 

2. Arden- She's the family science buff. She has no fear of anything short of a hen getting "broody."

Here she offers the day's finding in the hen house.

 Slight of build though she may be, she is a strong and vigorous young'n. She and Edie (#3) can often be found with their bicycles which makes me happy to no end! They'll be CXing in no time!

3. Edie- AKA "Shark Tooth." Rough n' Tumble she is the only person I know who has had her adult teeth begin to come in behind her baby teeth, possessing both at once. She's the spittin' image of her mother at this age- it's uncanny.

4. Lulu- One of the kindest souls the world has yet seen, she was immediately taken with her young cousins and the two of them were fast friends.

The smiles say it all.

5. Milly Rose- 7 months older than Hannah, these two are sure to be thick as thieves in years to come.

Momma Donna loves little more than to spend time with her granddaughters.

And the house itself is beautiful. Sarah's family has set up a beautiful life for themselves. The sky's the limit.
