A Family Weekend

This last weekend we got to spend a lot of time with Cindy's side of the family.  Maddox met a lot of his great aunts and second cousins and third cousins and cousins once removed (though I prefer just calling everyone either aunt/uncle or cousin... it's less confusing that way!). 

Cindy and Thom were married on Saturday and it was a beautiful ceremony.  Maddox was once again dressed to the nines in one of his formal onsies.

We then went over to Luke's Aunt Susan and Uncle Brian's house on Sunday for more family fun.  They hosted a baby shower for Maddox, which was very sweet.  He got a lot of new books, some soft blocks to build with, lots and lots of warm clothes, and a few pairs of cute little shoes.  He also got to meet his third cousin Elanna, who is a few weeks younger than him.  At (almost) 6 months old, he's already quite the charmer.
