Some Little Cousin Lovin'

All last week we told Quincy about how he would get to meet his cousin Lexi. He couldn't wait to play with her by the time Monday rolled around. However, on the drive to Grammie and Grandpa Loren's house he fell asleep and so his initial reaction to Lexi was a little shy.

This was his excited face to meet baby Lexi, before the nap.

Who couldn't love this little girl? She's so cute!

After a little while Quincy and Lexi were best buds. Although Quincy's more than double Lexi's age... the two were great companions for each other. Quincy loved that Lexi would crawl around chasing him, and Lexi liked having someone her size to rough house with. Boy that little Lexi bug is one tough chick. Thank goodness because sometimes Quincy's a little rougher than he means to be.

Lexi's not always all smiles... don't get me wrong she's one happy little girl, but she's quite serious sometimes (could be because she cut a tooth overnight while they were visiting). I loved these pictures of her different faces... this girl cracks me up! Especially this last one of her tilting her head to the side like, 'Hmmm... I dunno'. Funny, funny, girl!

Not only can Lexi keep up pretty well with Quincy while he's running around, she LOVES to play with hair. Not just play, but grab and pull out hair. Here's a great photo capturing Lexi gearing up to grab some blonde locks off Quincy's head. Little did Quincy know... I must say though, he didn't retaliate once, much to my relief he was very gentle with her. This was some much needed reassurance to the doubts I had about him and a newborn baby.

These two had so much fun being silly together. It's like they were both feeding off each other's energy. When one would get excited and start squealing, the other would follow. By the end of this night the two of them were exhausted!

Quincy can't wait to see his cousin, Lexi, again!
