I'm in love with your child!! Her signs are awesome. I so excited to actually see you guys in a few weeks. What a treat for me!!!
hugs,
Jord
These are the best videos to date - great job Karl. I think Zoey for a girl and Zeke for a boy would work. Any support?
I can't believe how many more signs she is doing since just seeing her a month ago. I miss her. Love you all and can't wait to see you soon.

It is so beautiful to watch her it makes me cry!! Zeke Schnitger? Kurt, what are you thinking? We might as well tattoo "hit me" on his forehead...Well, maybe not. He or she will be as adorable as Ainsley, so what's in a name as some famous person said....was that Shakespeare, Chauncy?
love, mom
Really, lets be honest.... does anything really go with Schnitger?????
