Last weekend we finally made the short but very worthwhile trip to Boise to visit Joe (Jonny's brother), Jerichoe, and 3-month-old Hudson. We almost turned around when Julia was in hysterics during the first half-hour of the the nearly six hour drive. But thankfully she calmed down, fell asleep, and we all enjoyed the ride. She was a peach for the remainder of the weekend.
When we arrived at their cute little house, there was "lots of baby holding going on" (as Amber's kids say). Baby Hudson is an adorable, snuggly, cuddly, calm baby. It was so funny to me when he so easily fell asleep in my arms - I'm so used to squirmy, lively, loud Julia! Yes, the little cousins are very different, but they also have a lot in common. (As do Jerichoe and I! We new mothers talked and talked while Jonny and Joe watched Transformers, looked at Joes's cool tool set, and drove around in the truck. Ha!) I even think there is something similar in their looks. Must be those dominant Rejholec genes. Anyway, we had a great time eating Jerichoe's delicious cooking, stopping in at the weekly auction (so cool! I can see how people stick around all day), strolling around the zoo, and mostly swapping babies and chatting. We are so excited for little cousins Julia and Hudson to become friends in the coming years.
Oh yeah, on the road we passed several huge trucks hauling potatoes. At first we thought the potatoes were boulders - those things are humongous! That's all.

They do have some similarities. How funny! I always love seeing her smiles. I'm sure the babies had fun together. Love the slippers.
Those look like fun times. You can sure tell which is the girl and which is the boy! Isn't that funny? What cuties.
They totally look like they could be twins. It will be interesting to see if they look like siblings later on in life.
Sounds like you have such a fun life!
the boy baby looks so boyish and the girl baby so girlish. I don't see a resemblance in the brothers. So glad you got to go. cute photes.
Julia is so chill.
He is a darling baby too! How do you get Julia to smile in all those pictures. Maybe it's because she is smiling all the time! What a happy baby!!
