So, on Monday, Memorial Day, Joaquin and I made the 1.5 hour drive to Cotulla to visit his 3 cousins. The drive was not what I was expecting. Joaquin was so well behaved and sat and watched Nemo the entire time. He kept saying, "Dori, where are you?" whenever she would leave the screen. (My son is too cute). The nicest part of the trip was that the speedlimit was actually 75 and not 70... this made me not feel quite as bad about driving 78, although I would have done it regardless of the speedlimit change.
We finally made it to Cotulla, surprising my sister about how early we were. She made the kids breakfast, they ate, and then they were off to play while we spent about 45 minutes trying to blow up a kiddy-pool/slide set. In the end, all of the hot air was worth it. The kids played for almost 2 hours outside non-stop. It is funny with how little they see each other, that every time they get together they act like they have never been apart.
Joaquin loved his new little cousin! This made me so happy and excited about bringing Joel home. Hopefully he loves his brother as much as his cousins.
Here are a few pictures from the trip (note: you will not be seeing any of me here or hardly ever)
