Swedish Visitors!

Our good friends Curtis & Therese came to the States for a 3 weeks. Therese is swedish and they have moved to Sweden 3 years ago, which was also the last time we saw them. In the meanwhile we both had kids and they are both over a year old. Jacob is only 20 days older them emma so the two of them had a great time playing. The first day they were suspicious of each other and fighting for toys but after day one they were great friends. Emma was visibly sad when Jacob left and kept of looking for him around our house for a whole day after. Chris and I missed our friends too. Even though it was a full house with 3 adults (Therese brother Markus was also visiting with them) and 2 kids, we loved the company and were sad when they left. It was european style living and we all have experienced it:) Next time they will just have to stay at our place longer:)
Here are some pics of the kids playing and having fun!


Jacob loved all the new toys!

Look at that cute face! We are hoping we can maybe do some marriage arrangements:):)

Emma loved therese and loved smiling and cuddling with her!

Investigating the outdoors-or maybe i should say the Conway back yard:)

Taking the bath together!

While at our place, Emma and Jacob enjoyed taking baths together. In case you are wondering, they did not notice that they are different. They simply enjoyed some good time together in and out of the bath!

Hanging out with Ty!

Out friend Ty Davis came and spent a morning with Emma and Chris last week. They had fun playing together and following each other around. When Anna (TY's mom) told me that Ty is into everything I replied that Emma is too. But then sometime duringb the morning Chris calls me and says that he needs to redefine the phrase "being into everytyhing" to me because now, watching TY, he understand what people mean by saying their little boys are into everything:):):) Emma was thrilled to have a playmate for the morning. Her dad gets boring since they hang out together all the time. She enjoyed following Ty and learning new tricks from him.
