The Good and The Ugly

On Mondays and Wednesdays, I stop home briefly at 4:15 with my basketball team so I can change before we walk down the block to the gym we rent for practice. The boys (both the team and Aidan and Davis) enjoy the brief time of interaction and at times things can get pretty comical.



Yesterday, as the boys and I came through the front door, Davis yells out his obligatory, "Daddy!" as he was seated at the dinner table "reading" his Bible. I had to throw out a gratuitous, "That's my boy!"




When I got home a couple hours later after practice with one of my players who had helped me carry gear back, Davis was again at the table as we walked in the door. This time, though, he had his left index finger half way up his nose as he yelled to my player, "Hey Edward! Hey Edward!"

Halle is Talking!

Well, at least cooing lots. So, I thought you might want to see and hear.

Dinner Menu

Yesterday, I (Kate) was sitting in the living room with the kids contemplating what to make for dinner. So I asked them, "What do you guys want for dinner?" Davis immediately replied, "Cookies!" I then responded with, "We can't just eat cookies for dinner!" So, Davis, after thinking a moment added, "Cookies......and peas?" That's our Davis. He loves his treats and his vegetables.

PS. Tonight we were sitting in the family room and heard the familiar "thud" coming from the boys' room and then shortly thereafter Davis began crying and ran out looking for Mommy. When he found me he said, "Mommy, I hurt my wall!"
