Tracey's sister, Tara, flew in from Portland to stay with us for a week after Brian went back to work, August 5-12. On top of being just plain fun to have around, she was a huge help, entertaining Maeve, shopping, cooking delicious meals, and cleaning. Over the weekend of August 8-10, Tracey and Tara's old friend Tiffany also came to visit, driving from Seattle with her two kids, Mia (almost 6) and Rhett (2), plus her father, Bert. Tiffany and her husband, Aaron, are in the U.S. briefly with the kids before heading back to Tokyo.
Here's just a little slice of life around the living room with the whole gang:

Day One

Keeping our distant family and friends up-to-date with our lives as parents of our two squeakers: baby girl Maeve, born on November 26, 2006, and baby boy Declan, born on July 21, 2008.

What Declan is Doing These Days
Declan walks as of August 15. He's now walking like crazy, riding his push-toys, and keeping up with Maeve. He loves to be chased by her, play peekaboo with anyone, and "pet" the cats. He likes all fruit more than anything else, but he'll eat most of what we give him. He talks a lot, especially about balloons, kitties, and daddy.
What Maeve Likes These Days
Talking in long sentences with lots of "so" and "but". Asking why about everything. Pointing out convertibles and ambulances. Talking about trains. Taking toys away from Declan. Hugging Declan.
