And finally what relation are our children to each other ?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You and you dad's cousin's daughter are second cousins. Your daughter is her second cousin once removed, your daughter and her kids are therefore third cousins!!
The word removed means different generation, so your first cousin's kids are your first cousins once removed but your kids second cousins....hope that clears it up for you!!!!!
