The cousins come...along with UG and Auntie Em

OOPS!  This post was suppose to be up September 5th...but I forgot to press 'Publish".  I like to publish in the order they happened...but this one is out of order.  Oh well!

On August 20th, Sunday, Gabe, Emily, Emerson and Walt came to meet their newest cousin/nephew.
 Gabe met his newest nephew...
I think he called him Sully...
which is what a lot of people are calling him.
(I have stuck with Sullivan!)
Walt isn't the baby of the family anymore!
I don't think he cared about that...but he was into kissing his newest little cousin!

 After meeting Sullivan, a baseball game started in the backyard.  
Gabe pitched most of the time, Donnie pitched, too.
The boys had a great time!
 My heart swelled watching the boys laughing and having such a fun time together.



 Love, love, love their smiles and laughs!



 William is 3 years younger than Benjamin and Emerson,
but that makes absolutely no difference!




 This is first base.




 Walt was a bit young to be involved in the game,
but he was running around anyway...sometimes
around the bases and sometimes wherever his heart desired to run!

 A little explanation for this.
We were all outside...and Sullivan was inside...we thought he was asleep.
His Auntie Em heard him...went to check and realized he had a poopy diaper...
and it was "like tar"...
His Auntie Em thought to herself, "I can do this..." and so she went to change his diaper...
but because it was SO MESSY and stuck since it was like tar...she decided to give him a bath.
It was at that point that we heard these curdling SCREAMS outside...
Sullivan has a great set of lungs...and he wasn't too fond of the bath!
That's why Lindsey is laughing...and Sullivan is in his birthday suit!
 Walt needed a bit of water...
His daddy was taking a little break from his pitching duties.
 While the older boys were showing their baseball skills,
Walt showed his swinging skills!

 There was a little break from baseball and into soccer...




 uh-oh...William had an injury accident...
 Walt sat with him until he recovered enough to continue playing.




My William!

A few videos from the baseball games...



 My 3 big guys!
These guys are buddies...
and that makes their Mimi so incredibly happy.







 I LOVE this!  Mimi and her 5 grandsons!!!!!
 Walt was enjoying some watermelon.
He also wore some of it on his shirt!

 After the baseball game, Walt was still thinking the batting helmets should be worn.


 Walt decided he wasn't too sure about not being the baby of the family anymore.  So, he just parked himself in an older car seat...
hilarious!

 William found some receipts and would bring them to me...and then to Gabe...and then to others and have us sign the back of them!



 Before Gabe and Emily took off with their boys, I wanted to get a picture.  Well, Mr. Walter wasn't being too agreeable...but that's OK, we're keeping it real on this blog!  It was wonderful to have them come to visit...and to meet sweet little Sullivan!
