Nothing Like a Cousin

Rachel only has one cousin.

His name is Nigel.


That's Nigel.

Nigel and Rachel met for the first time before Christmas.

Rachel was thrilled.


Andrew had a lot of fun throwing Nigel around. You can't throw around a two-month-old baby.

For the most part, Nigel could care less about Rachel. And Rachel could care less about him.


Nigel was interested in Grandma's toys and his Aunt Leslie.

But when their mommies forced them to sit by each other, Nigel and Rachel really hit it off.


This must go on my wall.


Sitting with Grandpa.


Nigel looked away from his drum for a minute to look at the little person.

I was always amazed at how big a difference six months made! Maybe someday they will be friends. Or, more likely, they will torture each other. It was a fun holiday spent with a cousin!
