It's Official

John is to report to work in St. George on May 1st. April is going to be very busy for us as we prepare for the move. We are going down there to look for a place to live the first weekend of the month. They've also told him they're giving him the last week of the month off so he can get moved.

Taking after Mommy

This should have been posted a couple weeks ago, but thanks to a DVD Amanda burned for him, Benjamin is now obsessed with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. He rarely wants to watch anything else. He knows each character and now has stuffed versions of each. He finally calls Mickey by his full name instead of "Ickey". The rest are Coofy (Goofy), Donald, DZ (Daisy), Minnie, and Pooto (Pluto).

Some Tidbits

Sorry in advance for the bad phoenetics:

--Chris' name has graduated from "Kiss" to "Cwis" or even "Chris"

--Amanda's name has gone from "Na" to "Mada"; although it took me a couple weeks to figure out that's what he was talking about

--For several weeks now Mom has been known as "G'ma" instead of just "MaMa" (and he's convinced every phone call is Grandma and Grandpa and I'm a real meanie if I don't let him talk to them)

--Bananas are no longer "Na's" they are now "Manyas"

--Several times yesterday, he acutally thanked me for giving him something that he had asked for. He says "Kee Kyu" or "Kyu Much" (not sure where he learned to say "Thank You Much")

Easter Bunny

I just have to share pics of Benjamin in his Easter outfit. Of course he was hesitant to pose for more than half a second, but we did get a few keepers. I'll put the rest on Flickr. (the duck he's holding is the new one the Easter Bunny brought. It has Easter eggs on its chest)
