Funny!

Here are a few more fun conversations from Gage.

One of my favorite things that he says right now is "Funny." If he thinks something is funny he laughs and says, "that's funny."

We gave him some Sprite for the first time last week and he kept saying how funny it was. He was laughing like crazy and loved it.

As some of you may know, we are expecting baby #2. I'm not super far along only about 11 weeks. But Trav asked Gage if we are having a boy or girl. Gage very seriously looked at us and said, "boy." So we asked him what his name is, and he said "Tate" which is actually a name I love but Trav still needs some convincing. We asked these questions several times and he is adamant that we are having a boy and his name will be Tate.

Funny!

New Phrases brought to you by Gage!

Gage is talking up a storm lately so I decided to post some of our favorite conversations.

Daddy: Gage are you ready to go night night?

Gage: No!

Daddy: Why not?

Gage: Cuz!

(I don't know where he got that one because I don't think either of us say that.)

Gage: I wanna watchit!

Mom: what do you want to watch?

Gage: Yeah!

Mom: what do you want to watch?

Gage: Woody! (toy story)

Mom: you want to watch Woody?

Gage: Yeah!

Mom: Are you sure you want to watch Woody? (we watch it ALL the time)

Gage: Po! (Kung fu panda)

Mom: You want to watch Po or Woody?

Gage: Woody!

Mom gets Toy story out to put in the dvd player. Gage, of course, sees other movies he likes.

Gage: Hammy! (Over the Hedge)

Mom: you wanted to watch Woody.

Gage: No, Hammy!

Mom: You want Hammy not Woody?

Gage: Woody!

You can understand where the conversation goes from there. Eventually, I just put Toy Story in because I was tired of getting the run around.

At the moment I can't think of any other funny conversations we have. He says a lot of sentences too, but my mind is drawing a blank. I'll post more when I remember them.

Crazy Life...

Our lives have been so crazy lately, and not just because of the holidays. Today we are waiting to hear whether or not the house that we want to buy will appraise the way we need it to. It has been a long hard road but if everything works out today then we may be able to close next week. So in order to distract myself I decided to spend some time uploading our Christmas photos. Here they are in no particular order whatsoever:

This is my family. Both of my brothers and their families came for Christmas this year. It was the first time we've been all together since my parents came home from Argentina two and a half years ago.

This is Gage opening a present at Grandma and Grandpa's house. He loved opening gifts.

Trav's brother Brent and his beautiful wife Stefenee

Gage loved opening presents on Christmas morning. He slept really late so we had to hurry him along so we wouldn't be late for church.

Checking out the stockings. We gave Gage a stuffed Elmo toy and he wouldn't put it down.

My two cute boys.

Christmas Eve Nativity (Gage knelt down to kiss baby Jesus)

The angel (beautiful Addie Rae) comes to the Shepherd (my bro Dan) and his cute sheep (little Jack)

Jack made such a cute sheep

Here's the cute gang looking to Opa for what they're supposed to do next

My Gorgeous Sister Jenni and beautiful Angel Addie Rae

Mary and Joseph (Claire and Eric) Eric took his part very serious

Gage was getting really tired

Oma and Opa with ALL the grand kids. This was the best picture we could get. And we have Jenni in there as a bonus.

We hope everyone else had a wonderful holiday too. We'll let you know how the house business goes as soon as we know something.
