Family Celebrations

The last two weekends we have spent time at Jon's parents' house celebrating family in one way or another. Last weekend they hosted a family reunion for Pepe's side of the family. We got to the party a bit late because I had been out of town and the boys both went down for early naps so we decided to let them sleep for awhile while I got caught-up and then we headed over. We missed the amazing food, but since Reed couldn't have eaten it anyway it all worked out. Pepe rented a bounce house for the day and Reed spent 99% of the party recruiting family members to jump with him. Nonna, Pepe, Mom, Dad, and Jon's second cousin Megan all had a turn or two in the "jumping house" as Reed called it. I even got inside holding Kieran while sitting down and the Little Daredevil loved watching his Big Brother hop around while he was being bounced in Mom's lap!!!

Yesterday afternoon we celebrated Mother's Day with Nonna's side of the family. Benny and Aunt Di Di both got in some snuggle time with Kieran, while Reed was up to his usual antics of entertaining everyone and "helping" the Moms open gifts.

Do you see Reed's hand (Nonna is holding it) in the picture below? We wanted to get a picture of the three ladies and Reed ran over and tried to join in. They all thought it was hilarious and we got some really good pictures of everyone smiling, so I guess he didn't ruin the picture after all!
