That's my happy little prince. :-)
He hasn't falled asleep in the high chair since he was a baby. It happened the other night because he skipped his nap.
Before Earl left, our church was making a new church directory, so we had our pictures made for it. There were so many good poses that I wanted of us and Joey, but they were so expensive! We got a free 8x10 for doing it, and I bought a sheet of wallets that set me back over $40. Crazy. Anyhow, I plan to get more poses soon, on payday. Until then, here are the 2 we have.
I forgot to update on Joey's brains in the last post. He is so smart. He has such good memorizing skills! He can recognize and identify so many letters of the alphebet. Earl first taught him A, E, I, O in the bathtub one night. Since then, he's also learned B, D, H, P, R, S. And those are just the ones he can pick out on his own and know the word too. If you ask him about J, K, L, M, N, T, U, W, Y he can point those out to you. We're working on colors now too. He knows blue well, but sometimes calls other things, like purple, blue when they're not. He knows pink (sorry Earl). He sometimes knows red, green, purple, orange, and yellow.
Earl called from Kuwait a couple days ago. He's doing well. He should be at his final destination by tomorrow (Thurs) at the latest.
If you're reading this honey, we love and miss you!
