Tuesday afternoon usually means hanging with Willy & Aila.
But this particular Tuesday had twice the fun in store.
My parents had Sox tickets and Melissa had to work,
so I picked up Riley & Garret at school and headed over to see Willy & Aila.
The afternoon started out like any other- Aila occupying my shoes as soon as I vacated them.


These 4 get along so well. Garret is a year younger than Aila, but she thinks he's fascinating. She dotes over him as if he were a newborn.

The two bigger kids set to trains and building towers.

Of course its never all-smiles all the time.
Aila's faces crack me up. I wish I knew what Riley had said to her!

So much to keep track of when following the 4 of them around the house....
Garret always getting into something and the others are usually glad to help him!


Again with the faces. I think I asked her a question.
Either that or Garret was trying to take her princess cup (for the 8 millionth time) :)


You tell him, A!

Gosh those cheeks are priceless!

And even more yummy up close!!!

"The Face" makes a reappearance.

Followed by a sweet face from this little princess who wanted her own portrait taken after Willy got his turn.
But this is my favorite capture of the day. Aila. So focused (a rarity).

And so ironic considering what I cropped out of the rest of the photo- the 3 other hooligans who were in a state similar to that shown below---

Love it! They so wanted to take pictures but trying to get all 4 of them in order. Impossible.
But this is real and I love it even more!
Willy's sensitive side.

I can't believe how grown up he's looking lately. Less and less baby each passing week.

Speaking of getting big- this peanut is getting longer and longer. But she's still got a baby belly and is glad to share!

It was a whirlwind afternoon. We stayed for dinner since Matt offered and since Riley was obsessed with the idea. It was a great spring afternoon with 4 cutie pies.
