We are on the East Coast for a two week trip that will take us to many destinations. Our first stop was Rhode Island for an O'Loughlin Family Gathering. Mary's parents celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary and all of the kids and their families were able to make the trip back. Everyone had a fantastic time. The house was large enough to hold everyone. The kids had a blast and were all able to sleep in the attic area. Cole was still a little too small for that, but he did enjoy playing with everyone up there. Cole has been loving the time with his cousins and the kids have been great with him. You would be amazed at how much his language skills have grown in this short time. One of his favorite things to say is "Nic, where are you?" Very cute. He also does this for the other kids and mama. He can't quite get Devin's name down so he refers to her as either "That Girl" or just "Girl". It has been tough for him to take naps when he knows the kids are around, but he is exhausted.
More updates to come, but thought we would post a couple of quick pictures.
