In the last few months Penelope has been lucky enough to have a cousin born here in the DC area. Grace (Gracie) Chambers Heisler was born November 12, 2010. Gracie's mom is my first cousin Sarah (our moms are sisters). I don't know what that makes Gracie and Penelope, second cousins? first cousins once removed? Let's just call them cousins and leave it at that. But to Sarah's mom and my mom, they are their "grandgirls," a phrase that our grandad has used for years to describe Sarah, me, and all of the girl cousins in our generation.
Anyway, we are all so excited to have a new baby in the family, and to have her so close by is truly special. Gracie was 6 weeks old when she came to Penelope's first birthday party and we got a nice shot of the four of us:
