Language school

While my youngest brother is busy frolicking about Germany and attending a language school, we've been slowly conducting our own school here. The result? Evelyn is slowly but surely accumulating English words. Recognizable thus far:

Mama
guck ("duck")
hi
uh-oh
Adju (like "achoo" with a "d"; for Andrew)

And Poppy is convinced she said "shoe" to him the other day. So, still not much, but moving in the right direction. With any luck her surgery next week will make it even easier for her to pick up on words. Noticeably missing: dada.

So fun for little miss Evelyn to start to talk. At our house Sam will ONLY say Dada! The little stinker.

We'll be praying for Evelyn for her surgery. Seeing all the pictures makes me miss you all the more. Oh, and congratulations on being homeowners! That's a milestone I don't think we'll be crossing anytime soon.
