One More Babe...

Just to piggyback on my last post, here's a funny babe story. Josh preached this morning at a CRC church to fill in for their pastor, and the boys and I went too. After the service I picked Howie up in the nursery and we went to the sanctuary to find Josh, who was talking to people from the congregation. Howie was happy to see him and grabbed Josh by the hand... after being patient with his chatting for a few minutes, Howie dragged him down the aisle of the sanctuary saying, " Babe! Babe! Babe!" I don't know if anyone else understood him, but I found it hilarious.

Babe

Howie has taken to calling Josh and me both "Babe" because that's what we always call each other (although it sometimes doesn't sound very affectionate... for example, "what the heck were you thinking, BABE??") Anyway, here's a quote uttered by Howie tonight during a dance party after dinner, in response to seeing me come onto the dance floor (our brown living room rug) and no doubt desiring me to spin him around:

Howie: Pick up me, Babe.

He's also taken to calling Josh "Josh" or "DaddyBabe." It's pretty dang funny!!

Back Again

Here are some pics from the past several weeks!! Our camera finally started kind of working... I'm convinced that these techie people make these things in such a way that you have to replace them fairly quickly or they're horribly outdated and possibly inoperable. We're fighting for this camera's life, and seeing as it's only slightly older than Howie, it's surprising that we're having to do so. But anyway, I managed to squeeze these out today and hopefully more are on their way! These are in no particular order.

Doesn't Justice look a bit like Howie did so long ago?
