Cubbon



After an entire month of deliberating between "Cubbon" and "Wils," as a name for this sweet boy, we are officially calling him Cubbon. I think we called him "Genius" for so long it was really hard to give him another name! Here are some pics of him at about three weeks old.


He is such an amazing baby: never up more than once at night, not a spit-uppper, never dirties his diaper at nighttime - daytime only, stays in the same outfit for 24 hours, not fussy...truly a delightful little person. Thank you to all who are praying for us. It shows!



Lolli arrived for a visit on October 13th and then Pops joined us October 26th. They left November 4th and we're still recovering from the blues of them leaving. Our time with them was wonderful. They were a HUGE help with the children and, of course, Cubbon. They rode back and forth to the school each day, helped pack lunches and wash dishes and do homework. They read and read and read to Lady and "filled her tank" during a time when she would've otherwise been slightly neglected. They changed diapers, bounced, rocked, held and held Cubbon. They got to see the kids in some of their extra-curricular activities and even manged to do a little Bangalore sightseeing. Oh yes, they also brought over 1/8 of the United States in their luggage! It was a thrill each day to see what wonderful treat would make its way from one of their bags. Thank you, Mom and Dad!

Oops, I was trying to edit my comment and deleted it. What I meant to ask was if Cubbon Philip's heel (not heal). Sorry, I'm a bit brain-fried.

Oh, Lacy! Cubbon is absolutely precious and adorable! One can tell that he's a good baby from his handsome pics! Well, we miss y'all soooo much...our homeschool group isn't the same without y'all! And I would have never even known that was Eleanor! She's so big now! So are the boys and Adelaide! I can't remember how I came across your blog, but I'm glad that I did! I'd love to see/hear some more! We had the Scotts, Parkers, Caulkins, and Daniels over the other night for our supper club, and we all sat listening intently to Cathy as she described her amazing trip to India! I'm so glad y'all to got to see one another!
Hope you're doing well!
