Corrie quotes, part 16
[Your name is Cora but we call you 'Corrie']
"What's my name again??"
"We should ask God to come to our house and make me feel better!"
"This is the fastest car in the world!!"
"It's a narwhale!"
[What's a narwhale?]
"It's got a biiiig nose and it swiiiiims in the water like a narwhale"

trip to barnhart
More pictures from our weekend with the Powell's.
Helping Grandpa out of the tunnel. She loved his baby chicks he is keeping in the garage (from outside their cage, of course). And as always loves Gus, Goober and Frisky the cat.
A picture of Grandma and Corrie standing beside our first Christmas tree. We loaded it in the truck and drove it all the way to Barnhart to see the "plant whisperer", or Grandpa Powell. Corrie loves her Grandma's and Grandpa's! She didn't want to leave... making pancakes with Grandma, the baths... who wouldn't? Mary was a little shy at first. I think she is going to be one of those children that hides behind her mother's skirt.
THEY OUTNUMBER US! (but don't tell them...) This is Brian's cousin Lisa and her happy baby Juliana. Corrie loved playing with her. I wish I had gotten a video of them laughing at each other... but my arms were full of baby.
Corrie loved helping Aunt Betsy open her presents.
It's always good to get some Uncle Steve and Aunt Betsy! We can't wait to meet their little girl in May.
My view from the car feeding Mary. Brian and Corrie were "playing" outside while we waited. They climbed the big pile of gravel. That's them on top, the two little specks. The bright side of traveling?... Corrie made it the whole way wearing underwear. The not so bright side...crosswinds in Illinois causing the car to whistle (must be a kia defect!).
At the playground...
A girl, a Grandpa, and a ballerina skirt...

At aunt Betsy's baby shower... It was at a retreat center, so we did some "retreating" before it all started.

Flying kites in MO with grandpa last weekend:
Mary is glad to be home - very talkative this week!

grasping...
So, I've been making some stuffed bears in the hopes that mary will become attached to one (rather than her thumb!).

the Colliers
Please keep Bill Collier and his family in your thoughts and prayers; His son, Charlie, was my best friend growing up and I've kept in touch with their family over the years. He's been fighting cancer for about two years now, and they recently had to decide to put him on a respirator. Here is a link to their caringbridge site

yet more quotes from corrie
Me: Do you know what season it is? It's not winter anymore...
Corrie: ...Friday!
"I will be three years old when I grow up... and I will be able to make dinner!"
"You have to drink lots of ice water to get the hot out."
(singing) "Naaaked, naaaked, naked, naked, na-... sing along!"
"Naaked, naaked, naked, naked, naked."
"Can I get my boogers and put them on the sidewalk mommy?"
And these two guys the other day- they're supposed to be magnetic rock climbers -
"It's my jumprope. No, it's my jumprope! No, it's my jumprope!"
