"Couple names"

On my blog I recently had a poll to help decide what mine and Dave's couple name should be. Like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been dubbed 'Brangelina'. Votes favored 'Ravid' for us. I had fun coming up with couple name possibilities for all of my married siblings. Here's what I've got:

Raylie or Julaymond

Angelarrin or Darrangela

Nathamy or Amathan

Sarim or Timrah

Aprichael or Michapril

How about some for Mom and Dad . . . Rayresa, Teray, Teresay, Raysa - man this is fun! Ha! Have you got other ideas? Pick your favorites!

For Charity in particular

Had to get a pic of the bum ruffle. :-)

Our snowy Sunday

Dietrich had so much fun - he played in it for three hours. And over an hour the next day! We had over 1 1/2 feet of snow. Branches broke all over Billings and the power was out more than once. But it was beautiful.

I forgot to mention in the last post that Dietrich calls Kate "cake." Isn't that a hoot?

Some random things . . .

Just wanted to share some fun things that have happened recently:

• Dietrich said the first full sentence that I remember hearing him say yesterday. I went to a baby shower and as I was buckling him in he said, "Where are we going?" He does speak English!
  
• Kate has slept the night through, not once, but twice during the past week! Isn't she amazing?
• I don't know how much she weighs, but Kate fits more comfortably in Stage 2 diapers and many of her 3-6 months clothes. She's growing so fast!
• We're halfway through this semester! It's horrendous - Dave is never home and when he is he needs to be working on something for school. I really haven't liked this semester so far.
• I discovered that Kate shares her birth date with Davy Crockett! Isn't that funny?
  

I'll have/make the time/patience to post some pictures soon. It just takes so long with dial-up. But we have some fun pictures of Dietrich playing in the snow after we got a foot and a half of it last weekend. He loved it!
