Our good friends Nik and Rebecca flew out from Washington for a visit a couple weeks ago and a grand time was had by all. They brough Gabe out a new best friend as well! Gabe now has his very own Companion Cube and he couldn't be happier!
Unfortunately we didn't get many good pictures of Nik and Rebecca, mostly because we were enjoying their company to much to remember to take pictures most of the time. In this one Nik is contemplating what it would be like to have a baby that you couldn't actually give back when it started to fuss. Gabe is currently in his very own Golden Age as he doesn't fuss much, smiles a lot, and can't move around. In other words he's the perfect sell up to couples that don't have any children yet.
The women folk left the men folk at home with Gabe while they went out shopping for wine and other such stuff. After several hours of Gabe wanting to be paraded around the house, and fighting against the bottles I gave him I was well done. We decided to go out for food and left this message for the girls which I see they took a picture of.
It was great to see them, and hopefully once Gabe is a little older we'll be able to fly out and visit them. I know we don't want to take Gabe on any flights if we can help it. For the holidays we'll be taking the train down to visit Michelle's parents in Virginia. It will end up taking just about as long as it would to fly when you take into account arriving two hours early to get through security and layovers. It also means it'll be a lot easier to handle Gabe as there are no manditory in seat times. I'm sure we'll have lots to post to the blog after that trip:)

I told Gabe he can't have a portal gun until his first birthday.
We may have to use his companion cube photo as a geeky Valentine's day card.
Let us know if you have a spare day to come visit over the holidays. We might go away for new years, but we're at home for Christmas. :)
Hi Dori! You bet! Sorry I haven't answered your e-mail yet. I'll get in touch soon. . .
