Max & I have been talking a lot about babies lately. It seems everyone we know is expecting & they are all due in either January or June. Makes for some interesting conversations. Anyway, the other day, Max & I went to visit our good friends Jenn & Kris who are expecting twins. Max gets (kind of) the concept that a woman can have a baby in her tummy & that when it gets big enough it will come out since quite a few of his classmates have recently become big brothers or sisters. When we told him that Jenn had 2 babies in there, he was understandably full of questions. "How do they fit? What do they do in there all day? Do they have toys? Do they hafta share? How do they look at books?" Then he asked what their names were and the conversation went something like this:
Jenn: So far, we've picked Rachel for a girl & Matthew for a boy.
Max: No no no no, Auntie Jenn! That's not their names!
Jenn: Do you know their names, Max?
Max: They is Jorn & Jack. Can you say that? JORN... And JACK! (emphatically)
Its been a couple weeks & he is still insisting that the babies will be called Jorn & Jack. We'll have to wait & see it the parents to be take his advice
On a related note, no, I am not drinking the same water as all of my friends but may take a sip or two next July. So patience all you antsy people! (And you know who you are!)

Jorn and Jack, huh? Well, if Allen won't get his thoughts together on names for this baby, we may be asking Max's advice.
Hey sara - so next July huh! Loving Max's latest pictures - he is adorable. I think Jorn and Jack sound like great names - well Jack at least! not that I'm biased or anything! Hope you get to enjoy your Christmas and New Year, we will be in Queensland with some family - and Bob and Vicki are joining us too - it will be great to have heaps of family around to spoil us all. love christal
