Visitors from Beantown

Last month we were lucky enough to have a bunch of visitors. Meme and Poppa came first and it was so nice to see them, it had been a while. Ethan was a bit shy at first but it did not take him long to get comfortable and show his personality. It wasn't long before he was begging to help Meme cook Matzo Ball soup and for Poppa to play catch with him. We did a lot of fun things but most of all we enjoyed just hanging around, playing and being silly.



























After saying a sad goodbye to Meme and Poppa we quickly got ready for our next round of visitors, Uncle Ben, Aunt Karen and cousin Oliver. Ethan and Oliver had a blast and hadn't seen each other since April. They ran around the house chasing each other and were inseparable. We were on the move with them, going to the Long Beach Aquarium, the water park, walking along the cliffs in Laguna Beach and just playing. It was so much fun and we sure miss them. Next time we see Oliver he is going to be a big brother:) Here is a clip of Ethan and Oliver playing around the house, please ignore the talking in the background, wasn't planning on posting this on the web.



We had such a great time with all of our visitors and miss them already. We are looking forward to our next visit in November when Grandma and Papa come out for Thanksgiving. For now, we are gearing up for Ethan's 2nd birthday party this weekend. Stay tuned...

In my first message I forgot to type the "s" at the end of sibling - it should read the Stern siblings!
