We like em' chunky!

OK! I'm back! I've got my USB cable and I'm ready to blog again! So, just for fun, I've got to share about one of our nicknames for Will! We are big on nicknames here and one that has stuck for Will is "Moto Moto"! Now, if you aren't familiar with the movie Madagascar 2, then this will not mean anything to you, but the picture to the right is the character Moto Moto and hopefully this will give you an idea of where Will's nickname came from. The song that you hear playing on my playlist is the song that Moto Moto sings in the movie. Well, this nickname just perfectly fits Will and when you see the following pictures, you will understand why! We are very proud of our "Moto Moto" because it wasn't long ago that he was very thin and needed some nourishment! He is eating well (as you will see) and he is packing on the pounds! So, several times a day, you will hear one of the kids singing, "chunky chunky, plumpy plumpy" while they play with Will! Too cute! These pictures were taken a little over a week ago when we took Will swimming for the first time!
Ain't nothin' wrong with lovin' chunky!
Moto Moto's big sister with her swimmies on!

He loved the pool! He is just so laid back and takes it all in!
