My Little Cubbie

Zander is the cutest little cubbie i've ever seen. a cubbie is from awana for those of you methodists! :) hahaha...sorry. cubbies is the young form of awana and zander has his little vest and everything. he's such a doll. he's said his first two verses and got his first patch. honestly i thought he'd struggle with memorizing but he's really good at it. mind you, the verses are short and simple, but he's doing great. i'm so proud!
in other news, after almost four years, we finally got a baby gate. :) ronan has learned to climb the drawer handles in the kitchen and has had one too many experiences with knives. soo..we finally broke down and got one for the kitchen. ronan is so not happy, but hey i'll take the squealing over him getting into danger.
mmm...let's see. anything else? oh we think we have a baby name!!
JADE GABRIELLE. gabrielle is a work of ben, who combined letters from gail, becky, and ilene. gail is my mom, becky's ben's mom, and ilene is the middle name of barb ben's mom who died when he was little. we wanted to pay respect to all our moms. so we hope you like it!
and please, just like with ronan, stop telling me if you don't like the name. DON"T CARE!!!!!
ok that's all from the annens!

You are hilarious! I love the "I don't care" part. We know all about that- do you know how many doctors have looked at my daughters name and persisted in referring to her as "he/him" regardless of head to toe pink? Um, yeah, lots- like in the 30+'s and she's only 6 months! Well I like the name, yay for girls.

and by the way, your husband used to or still does have a bit of a photographic memory... don't forget he could memorize music in literally a second at mrs. hills and then not practice it the rest of the week:)
