Cousins meet for the first time!

Not only did Great Auntie Janet, Bauby M, and Zaidy Shelly come for a visit, but the 3 Boys Barbag finally got to meet their new cousin Maya Olivia!

We left early in the morning and arrived just in time for lunch!

Not happy about being woken up for the morning drive.

Happy to arrive and eat some grub!

Then we headed over to meet sweet, little Maya!

Josh and Maya (2 years and 1 month)

Derek (4) tells Maya (1 month) all about the world.

Group fun!

Getting acquainted with the furry cousins:

Baub oversees the boys.

Then it was time to give Uncle Brian and Aunt Shana's pool a try!

 

The waterfall plunge.

Who wears it better?

Uncle Brian....

...or Baby Benji?

                  

After swim, nap time!

Auntie Janet is the best pillow.

Then some play time with pups and babe.

Harley and Bailey LOVED being around Benji.

The safety of the bounce-a-roo.

Helping Aunt Shana rest.

Rise and shine and ready for dinner!

Dinnertime!

Josh cuddles Maya.

Derek holds Maya.

Kisses.

The boys LOVE their new baby cousin!

Josh watches Bubby feed Maya.

Now that he's watched --- he's learned!

Soft kitty baby, gentle kitty baby, little ball of fur cuteness....

Auntie Lori finally gets some Maya time!  Reunited and it feels SO good!

Getting the boys to bed in the hotel room was not the most fun, but once they fell asleep -- they were OUT! 

Bed time for bonzos.

Pack-n-playin' with the adults.

Sharing the hide-a-bed on the other side of the suite.

Morning snuggles with Zaide.

Happy smiles in the morning!

Of course, we all took turns imitating Bubby Linda's PJ's.

"Fed Up"

Not so fed up.

 After packing up all of our stuff, we had a nice continental breakfast.

The best amusement in Central Florida?  The Glass Elevator, of course!

 

 One last visit before heading back.

The next time we're in Orlando, will be to get this guys haircut.  (Giving Maya's hairband a try, though...not bad, right?)

 We got back to S FL in time to...yup, you guessed it....eat!

One last meal before the Chicago Fam heads back home.

Build your own sundae!

Decorate your own cupcake!

Back home relaxing in Benji's room:

Photo bomb!

Heading to Toys-R-Us for some back to school supplies:

Fun with Bubby.

Benji and Mommy.

Summer life = rough life

Benji gives cheese a try.

Derek shows off the mask he made at camp.

We had SO much fun visiting in Orlando and spending time with AJ, Bauby M, and Zaidy Shelly!
