Scarlet was finally able to meet her cousin Starla for the first time a couple weeks ago. Erik, Charlie's brother graduated from college and they came home for a week to visit. Scarlet really hasn't been around many kids, she has been around her 2nd cousins a few times but when they are together they never touch or get too close, so seeing Starla so frequently was a new thing for her. She really wasn't sure what to make of her. I tried to get her to touch Starla's hand but she pulled her hand away and didn't want anything to do with touching her. Starla used a few of Scarlet's things that she has outgrown, like the bumbo and excersaucer, Scarlet isn't used to sharing so it was funny watching her new-found interest in her old things once Starla was using them.
Starla is such a cutie. You really can't tell in pictures but she does have red hair and her head is fuzzy like a peach, it's a lot of fun to rub. :)
Here is Scarlet after she sat herself in the old bumbo because she saw Starla in there and then she couldn't get back out.
Erik celebrated his 26th birthday while he was here so we had an outdoor get together at the Smith home. Scarlet got to see fireworks again, somebody found some huge sparklers at the Anderson house and brought them up for the kids to see. It was a fun night of playing and eating yummy cheesecake.
