Catching up today on some of our older posts that were due to be published . . . this is the first of two posts related to our often referenced, but now expanded, pool of caregivers that have allowed Pai and Dad to take the occassional long weekend away (historically). With the European trip with my folks, we were down a set of our pool and we were very fortunate to have been able to call in Godmother/Aunt Denise and Coco to watch the boys for the first weekend of a very long 10 day trip.
Denise and Coco are the perfect tag team from the perspective of the wider Brigade . . . Pai and Dad have always loved and admired Denise's mothering skills and the boys have been 100% enamored with Coco since the first time she brought her adorable grin and affections into their lives. Ethan and Noel could quite literally follow Coco around in imitation for hours and she's always been an incredibly receptive admiree for their affections.
The only downside of their long weekend of caregiving is that we didn't have many pictures come out of the experience . . . so we'll go with what we've got!

| First up is an impressive sight . . . the boys have never been big spaghetti eaters for Dad and Pai, preferring tortellini in our experience. Somehow (Coco's preference) the super caregiving tandem managed to introduce this as a dinner option and have it acccepted. The proof is in Noel's ridiculously covered face - clearly a hit! |

| No different with Ethan . . . looks like he couldn't force it into his face quickly enough . . . |

| Post-dinner carbohydrate crash & TV time with Coco . . . no details on what exactly happened to Noel's pants, but luckily he managed to be discreet for this pic. |
