Annie and Molly...

...a one-sided love affair.

Little cousin Molly came for a visit two days ago, and while all of the big kids played together, the babies had a chance to bond a little. Yes, I still call Tessa and Annie "babies," even though I'm very aware they should be called "toddlers" by now :(

Tessa poked a finger or two at Molly, giggled a little, and then settled down to read her books (her favorite thing to do lately when she's not doing some stunt to make Annie laugh). Annie, meanwhile, took this little sit-down very seriously. Imagine a 15-month demanding to hold a baby. That's what happened, over and over again, and Sara just kept giving in and placing Molly on Annie's lap. Annie can be very persuasive :) Doesn't she just look so serious here and motherly here?

When it was time for Sara to hit the road back to Moraga, no one was more sad to see them go than Annie, who clung to Molly's car seat in a desperate attempt to keep her at our house, and then threw a little tantrum. I think Molly was glad for the change of scenery when she was safely in her car!
