Aunt Rose!

Aunt Rose got to meet Leo for the first time too. She's the elder Leo's sister, and was thrilled with the new little guy.

Leo on Leo

One of the best parts of our Ohio trip is that Leo got to meet Leo! The original: Uncle Leo. Leo Jacob is Laura's mother's mother's brother, and a very sweet man. His son, "Little Leo" is no longer with us, and greatly missed. Baby Leo was thrilled to meet his namesake, and I think the feeling was mutual.

Krazy for Kousinz Part II!

The best part about cousins is... Ticklefest! Leo wasn't sure what to make of this at first, but - wow - he sure did enjoy it. And when it was over, he wanted more.

Krazy for Kousinz Part I!

Leo got to meet his cousins Abby and Mallory and, woah, was he a big fan. They were sweet to him too, getting down on his level and everything (this was in the church).

Good Times in Rising Park

While in Lancaster, we visited Rising Park, a city park where Grandpa used to play, sled... do kid things. Now it's Leo's turn. Fortunately, they had - swings! It was a hit.

Grandpa Time!

We started our Ohio tour in Lancaster, where Laura's dad and stepmom live. It's where Leo learned to pull himself up into a standing position (more on that later). Step-aunt Jen stopped by too!

I Went Back to Ohio Part I

Last month we all went to Ohio, where Laura is from, to visit family and celebrate Laura's mom's marriage. It was tons of fun, and included lots of quality time with relatives, including the original Leo! But first, we had to get there...

Leo's a pro when it comes to planes. He's now been on FOUR plane flights, and Ohio is the FIFTH state he's now been to. Kid's a champ.

Hi, Great Cousin Jon

Laura's cousin, Jon (Leo's Great Cousin then, right?) was in town recently. He and Leo like each other.
