Adventures in the States, Part 3 - Getting used to each other

During the last few days and weeks both we and the 'babies' had to get used to new situations and partly new people (long seen relatives), which means that though we have great times together, sometimes we become exhausted by the end of the day. Apparently, not just us, 'big ones', but the 'little ones', too.

Wanna see the evidence?:)

This cute angelic and mischievous smile might hold a hidden meaning (parents know...;))

though the toy bug on his head seems to function as a gloria

even the sweetest smile and the shiniest gloria cannot cover the truth that 'My parents (and grandparents and aunts:)) are exhausted'.

Oh no...what did you say? ME exhausting mommy and daddy?! CABEL??!! SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE! (with the typical Caleb 'oh no'-face) :)

Well, it could be...but

see, not only the parents but also the children are getting exhausted of the adults (I wonder why...)

since they attempt to attain a few calm minutes by sleeping peacefully and deeply in the midst of the day

Here are the sleeping beauties tired of the bunch of relatives

Still. no worry: as the Sun rises, Caleb will call out 'light Mommy, light!', Ariana will continue training her lungs and life will not cease to be lively in the house...;)

At least, until the Sun sets again.
