Last week, N, joined us. We anticipate he will be with us for a few months, but we also know that could change at any time. He is 2 1/2 and Rudy alternately loves having him around and is driven crazy by N.
On Sunday we went to Delaware for the day to hang out with our camping friends. At first N wanted nothing to do with anyone, but as soon as food and drink and toys were pulled out, he quickly made friends.
Light sabers and duels were a big part of the day, as usual. And Rudy still manages to convince two 7 year old girls to run around and play and fight with him. His charm is unending. :)
Kim has nicknamed Charlotte "The Baby Whisperer" because of her love of the littlest ones and her ability to follow them and play with them and appease them as needed. N was no different.
Although only about 6 months apart, Ashton and N didn't really pay much attention to each other.
Even on the playground temper tantrums erupt...
So fun watching these three. Four years ago this summer, many families that adopted through our agency got together at the zoo in DC to meet. From that get-together came our friendship with these families. These 3 are all seven and in first grade and they just get along so well. And even though we only see each other a few times a year, they jump right back into the friendship every time we meet.
Silly Rudy purposely standing in front of the swings to have the girls kick him.
As he was lying on the ground crying about something, N realized that there were wood chips and mulch he could actually play with on the ground. Tantrum ended.
