We miss Andie!

Andie, one of Emma's cousins moved away a few weeks ago. Molly (Jared's sister) and Shawn (her husband), with the kids (Andie and Ali), moved to Athens, Georgia, for Shawn's Doctorate program. Today we got to chat on the web cam with her, it was great to see them. This wasn't the first time we have chatted since they've gone and Emma didn't even talk long, but she is now having Andie withdraws. So this is our Ode to Andie!












Andie is about one year younger then Emma and so when Andie was real little Emma didn't get to really take advantage of having a cousin to play with. As she got bigger the fun really began! Emma loves to play with all of her cousins - but Andie and David (shown in the picture of all three), have lived in the same area all of their short lives and have really become great friends! They love to chase each other around Grandma T's house, fight over toys and make lots of noise. Emma and Andie love to watch The Little Mermaid together and Emma calls it "Andie's movie". Since Andie has left both David and Emma ask for her whenever we go to Grandma T's house ... David (who is just 10 days younger then Andie) even got out the stroller (the toy they always fight over) and looked around to see if that would bring her out to play! We hope school goes by fast and we are back together really soon! We love you and miss you little Drew Bug!

Thanks for the ode! I liked all the pictures you put on. It'll be interesting when we do visit next (not sure when that will be) and see how those three crazies will interact. The older picture is neat. Andie is so small and Emma's hair is so short. It's cute. I especially liked the one with all three.

When Giovanni saw the first picture he said, "oh, no Emma, we don't jump on the furniture" lol. Clearly he is told that WAAY too much! Cute pics!
