Jenna and the kids met us at the airport and the kids were ecstatic to see each other. Mia was holding a big "welcome to Boston" sign that she had made. It was so much fun. And the boys were buddies from the start. One funny conversation in the car:
Lennon: Let's go to Jordan's
Jenna: Sorry Lennon, Jordan's is closed, we'll go another day.
Lennon: (clearly upset) Then I'm going to throw Jordan's away!
Mia: Um, Lennon, you're not really strong enough to throw Joradan's away.
Lennon: I'm cool for throwing Jordan's away.
Jackson: I could use tools to throw Jordan's away.
Mia, as usual, was great with the boys. She's still the most loving, funny, creative and sweet girl ever. Lennon and Jackson were the best of friends. It was really fun to watch them play. Occasionally we had to step in to decide whose turn it was etc but all in all they did great. Not even one major fight from the boys. Lennon doesn't drink out of a bottle but the whole time we were there he and Jax both drank bottles before bed. It was so funny because the bottles were in the fridge and neither boy ever went to get only his own bottle. They were constantly asking if Ba or Enin wanted a bottle. I can totally picture them being college roommates someday.
Ok, here are tons of pictures. . .
Jax and Lennon checking out a snake (or as Jackson calls them "more pow!") at the Rainforest Cafe.
Our sweet boys.
Happy guys loving being together.
The boys grilling hamburgers.
The cousins having their evening snuggle time.
These guys were inseparable for the whole trip.
Playing in the furniture at Jordans.
Aunt Sissy playing with the boys at Jordans. She's holding over 70 pounds of two year old here!
The boys fighting with lightsabers while Mia conducts a Miley Cyrus song.
Seeing the boys together makes me look so forward to the Francis family living in Texas again.
Mia and Mateus getting ready for our slumber party movie night.
Lennon showing Ba (Lennon still calls him Ba) that the gnome isn't scary.
Mia dressing up to go to the zoo. She's wearing a dress that used to be Jenna's.

Cousin bath time fun.
Jackson shaving with the new razor Mia and Lennon gave him for Christmas.
Sissy reading the kids their bedtime story. Mia, again, wearing one of Jenna's old dresses.
This was Mia and Jackson's "parade." I have no idea what they meant but they crawled around like this laughing hysterically saying it was a parade.
Walking to Mia and Lennon's swamp. They are on a ton of acres and exploring is a favorite activity.
Cousin hug.
Trying to get the 3 of them to smile and look at the camera was a losing battle.
Sweet Mia.
Sissy and her sweet kiddos.
Jackson throwing sticks into the swamp.
Mimi and Enin.

The little peanut goofing off in the wig.
If you've been to my house you can now see that the letting the kids dance and play on the furniture is definitely hereditary:)
