Me and Bobby James

 

This guy…

..and his mom came to visit us last week.

The girls have met James a few times before but this was the first time they got real one on one time with him. They fell in love with him and promptly changed his name to Bobby. We’re still not totally sure why. One theory is “baby James” evolved into “Bobby James”. In the end, the best explanation Tiff could give me was, “I don’t know. He just seems like a Bobby.”

Everything Bobby did was hilarious. There were arguments about which girl he liked best, who could feed him, who made him smile. They couldn’t get enough of Bobby. The cute part was that Bobby really couldn’t get enough of them either.

Bobby ate pounds of rocks and sand at the beach.

He loved to crawl around in the sand. The girls believed his love of the beach was a sign that they should move here.

I LOVE the sandy feet!

Bobby loved the beach so much that he got ticked when it was time to go.

We visited a lighthouse..

..and explored an old army base with lots of things that resembled the Dharma Initiative.

We found these cute messages in the sand.

It was fun for the girls to show Hannah their turf. They were such great hosts. There were of course so many hilarious stories.

On Sunday Hannah and Natalie ended up in a car alone on the way to church. Our church is behind the temple. As they were driving, Natalie was playing tour guide.

Natalie: There’s Dairy Queen. There is the bowling alley. And there’s the temple. Did you know they light it up really bright at night? It is SO pretty!

Hannah: Yes. They do that to all the temples. Isn’t it just beautiful?

Natalie: Um. Not the temple. The bowling alley.

Everyone had a very hard time when Hannah and Bobby James left. The girls love their Aunt Hannah as much as they love their cousin. It was great for me to spend time with my sissy. We all miss them so much!
