Whoa! Was this past weekend ever full of adventure, action and lots of hugs and kisses!
Aydan's cousins came to visit him all the way from Saudi Arabia. I think as soon as he saw them on Saturday night he remembered them instantly, having just met them a few months ago in Pakistan. 
Aydan and Elsa really hit it off. They loved chasing eachother, playing basketball and just playing. Aydan became somewhat addicted to her company. He didn't want her to leave his side even to go to the bathroom. He saw outside the bathroom door and cried, waiting for Elsa to come back out.
Towards the end of the weekend, I think she started getting annoyed by this little kid following her everywhere. She just wanted to sit down and watch some Noggin but Aydan preferred jumping on her back and trying to make her wrestle.
Zaina on the other hand is a different story. She seemed to be terrified of Aydan. She avoided him as much as she could. He really tried to get her to play with him and kept referring to her as 'Baby' but she just ignored him. The funny thing is, as soon as Aydan would go up for his nap or for the night, Zaina went nuts! She would start running around and playing with every single toy Aydan has, enjoying her time away from him. It was so cute!
Elsa and Zaina are here for a few more months and I can't wait to see how their friendship with Aydan grows. They have such a strong bond now, it can only get stronger.
This weekend was the perfect start to what looks like might be a perfect summer.
This video just gives you a glimpse of what our weekend was like:

A cute bunch indeed. I still can't get over how terrified Zaina looks of the whole situation. She is so particular about everything! I'm sure over the next few weeks the guards will be brought down and they'll start enjoying each other more and more. And no, I didn't notice Sulman's provocative blow-kiss. When's that guy gonna learn not to blow kisses at people.
It is so pleasing and enjoyable to read about our grandchildrens' cute cute naughties. We wish we were there to watch them playing, Masha'Allah. Little Zaina will soon be a part of everything. I think she needs sometime to get to know Aydan more. When she feels that Aydan is my own family like Elsa then she will also enjoy playing together.
