My sister Julee has been here visiting for the past week. It was her first time out and she braved the trip from Utah almost 8 months pregnant and toting her 18 month old son around. She even went the extra mile and brought Gavin, my sister Arah's son with her so that Keely would have a playmate while she and Ayden visited.We had such a great time. Julee and I got to sneak away while Shawn watched the kids a few times and we of course made time for some good restaurants and a couple movies. Gavin and Keely had the time of their lives and Ben and Ayden were hilarious together. Pretty much they took turns bopping each other on the head and rotating time outs. 18 month olds haven't mastered the art of being social yet, have they? One of the funniest interactions was when Julee picked up Ben to show me how jealous Ayden gets (he's pretty possessive of his momma). Needless to say Ayden was not a happy camper, but the funny part was when he turned around and started yelling at Ben after he had given Julee a piece of his mind. He just pointed his little finger at Ben while waving his arm up and down and bellowing very descriptively. While he wasn't using any words his position was definitely made clear. Thanks dear Julee for making the trip, it was so great to have you here!
Here's a few pictures I took during the visit:

Fun Fun Fun!!! Cutest kids ever!
Isn't it wonderful to have extra family in your home?!?!?!
Cute pics.
Thanks for taking such good care of my boy. But so far I'm not real happy about this sleeping schedule you have him on. He got up at 5:55 this morning and went to bed at 7:00 tonight. I'm expecting an early morning tomorrow.
So fun, really cute kids. I didn't know julee was having another baby:)
Thanks for the comment I have lost 23lbs, I still have along way to go.
The Chicago post was great! The kids are adorable in these shots. We miss you guys :) Loves from the Costleys in Texas.
I'm glad you had fun with Julee. It's so nice to have family come visit when you live so far from them.
P.S. it's nice to know that Bronson isn't the only one who bops cousins on the heads:)
You got some cute kids! I love how Keely is all cuddled up on Gavin!
I wish I had a sister close by to take a couple of my kids for a bit. Sounds like a lot of fun.
So nice that you can have your sisters see you so often. (At least it seems like they see you often). Great pictures! All of the kids are cuties.
So maybe Caleb's aggressiveness is normal? Glad you had fun with your sister. Thanks for helping with the garage sale even with all this extra family stuff.
I love it. Do you have a picture of Julee? I hardly recognize Ayden. Good someone is posting.
Did you find your camera?
Ben is SOOOOO cute! He's got the cutest, sweetest smile. Time to take away that bink!
I am so glad that Gavin and Keely are such great friends. I am also thrilled to hear that Ben and Ayden are beginning to develop such a CLOSE relationship. By the way...about Chicago...It was Rhyne Sandburg day. You better remember that!
NO WAY-Julee traveled with both boys at 8 months! WOW-I'm impressed!!! That is so perfect that Ben & Ayden are becoming close like Keely & Gavin-I LOVE IT! Hey-what about a pic of you Moms?!
