Best Friends

G1 and I were watching a show one evening (Reba to be exact--oh and the girls were there too). It was the last episode and Reba either told Barbara Jean or made reference to Barbara Jean being her best friend. G1 then started talking about best friends. So I asked him who his best friend was. I of course already knew exactly who he was going to say. He tells me, "Daddy's Gavyn's best friend." It was so cute and so matter of fact. He will also tell me that "Gavyn's Daddy's best friend." :-)
I asked him this evening (while we were visiting my mom) who Grammy's best friend is. He told us "Mommy's Grammy's best friend." When I asked him who Poppy's best friend is he told us Grammy, and Geneva's best friend is Gretchyn. I really do think he understands (at least a little) about best friends.
Last night all 5 of us were sitting on the couch before putting the kids to bed. We were all just talking and playing. We started talking about best friends. I asked Geneva who her best friend is. She looked right at Gretchyn and tried to hold her hand--Gretchyn of course wanted nothing to do with any of this right then. But it was still very sweet. *Darn pregnancy--I'm getting tears in my eyes just thinking about how sweet and loving my children all are to each other.*

The other day G1 was playing with one of his (numerous) phones. He was "talking" up a storm with someone. I asked him who he was talking to and here is the conversation:
ME: Gavyn who are you talking to?
G1: Coo-coo.
ME: Who's Coo-coo?
G1: Nammy (which is Grammy for those who don't speak Gavyn-ese). Nammy's Coo-coo.
So, of course I'm cracking up wondering where in the world he would come up with something like this. Then I called her when I knew she would be able to talk for a minute. Even tonight he was calling her "Nammy Coo-coo."

I am 25 weeks pregnant today. I cannot believe how close we are getting to having another baby in the house. We still have yet to finish painting our room and the girls' room. Then we have to get the bassinet. Thank goodness we have everything else we will need. We the exception of some mostly minor things (namely varicose veins for those who are curious) going on I feel pretty good.
G1 loves "pushing on the baby" as he calls it. The girls are even getting "into it" I guess you could say. They love to come up to me and rub my tummy. G3 even started rubbing my tummy earlier and said "Baby". It was the first time she had said baby. It was so cool.
When we drive past the hospital that I plan on delivering at I always point it out and tell the kids that "That's where they baby will be born. That's where we will meet our new baby." So, now when G1 sees a big brick building (the hospital is brick) he says "Baby born" and points. He can't wait to meet his new little sibling. But he *knows* that the baby still has "months" (that's what he tells me-because I've told him over 3 months left still) left until she can come home.

Neither girl is walking yet. They both have on numerous occasions. But they don't feel like it yet. Which is fine--as long as they start before the baby comes otherwise I will go nuts! G2 could be standing in the middle of the room holding onto something and the minute we ask her to walk to one of us she gets down on her knees and walks that way. Silly silly girl! :-) I have a video of her doing this and will have to post it later. (I also have about a million pictures that I'm wanting to share--I just don't want to upload them right now, so y'all will have to wait!) G3 really doesn't seem too terribly interested in walking. She really only wants to walk for Poppy--sometimes for me or Matt but mostly just Poppy.
