Abram Boy

Recently:

-He's been really sweet with Aila.  When she cries he gets a blankie for her (and throws it on her face, haha)
-He loves to hold Aila's little toes
-While reading a book with a page full of animal pictures, "Oh! There's the zebra's bum!" (then proceeds to point to every animal's you-know-what) "And there's a notha bum and a notha bum and notha bum..."
-I bought him some finger paints from the dollar store, "Oh!  Dank you, Mommy!  That's so nice!"
-We usually sing primary songs or hymns at naptime & bedtime and he sings them to himself while he plays-- Music to my ears!  I'm always surprised how quickly he picks up the words.
-He's been really into music in general.  He can pick out the sound of any stringed instrument, "Mommy, that's a biolin (violin)!"
-He loves to have family night.  He's so happy when our whole family is together in the same room.

And in attempt to catch up on a few pictures...

March:  We got to visit Gma Lorna & Gma Eide in Napa

March:  I participated in the temple hill choir presentation of "Lamb of God" in Oakland (many, many hours of practicing & performing...exhausting when pregnant, but a blessing to be a part of something so inspiring)...Abram & Ben came down to Oakland with me on Ben's birthday while I had a rehearsal

At the Oakland temple (the rehearsal was at the stake center on temple grounds)

Golden gate park in San Francisco for Ben's bday

Canoeing

April:  Uncle Erik & Josef came for a visit--Abram was in heaven playing with them instead of his sick, pregnant mother!

We were really bad at taking pregnancy pictures this time around, but this is me 4 days away from my due date (end of the day, no makeup, etc etc...)
