A.J. the Co-pilot

So Azure went for her first plane ride a few weeks back. Ever since she has been able to speak she has asked "when it is my turn to fly plane". Kenyon decided that would be a great daddy/daughter date. And I had no fears, since I wouldn't be required to be on that very small airplane. She loved all 30 minutes of her flight. The pilot was even kind enough to let her fly the plane for about half the time. She did a dive and stalled out, but righted it without any problems-the pilot told her what to do. She is such a smart girl. I continue to be amazed by just how much small children pick up on. So upon exiting the airplane, she asked Kenyon if she could have a turn flying the helicopter,located just down the runway. But she does seem to be satisfied with her one flight, for now.

Baby "Noodle"

We are having a boy! The due date is January 28th. We are so excited, especially Azure, she keeps asking when baby "Noodle" can come out. She named him about a month ago and refuses to hear about calling him anything else...we'll keep working on that. I can just picture her getting all kinds of upset during his baby blessing when his REAL name is used. If it's anything like how she reacted to me sitting on the stand with my primary class during the Primary Presentation then it would make for the most interesting babies blessing ever! (She told Kenyon those kids can sit up there all by themselves and I need to sit by her, then she cried during the entire meeting-out in the hall, cuz she couldn't get over it. Then she was still so upset that she had to be brought out of nursery. She then told me that she didn't want to stay at church and wanted to go home "RIGHT NOW". This is the same girl that wants every day to be Sunday so she can go to church.) All is well.
