Olive's Growl

Olive loves it when we growl at her. We mostly do it when we pretend to eat her tummy, but I've noticed she loves it no matter when we do it. We have made a habit of doing it frequently because she loves it so much. So it's no surprise that she has come up with a growl of her own. I was really surprised to hear the sound come from her. I have no memory of a baby doing something like that so young. Kevin calls it her "Slingblade" voice. I think she sounds like a demon. Especially when she did it all through church today... It's really cute though, she just wants to be like her weird parents! It's only a matter of time until she has mastered Kevin's velociraptor screech!

Kevin has his last final on Tuesday--hallelujah! His first two exams have been nightmares. Each student takes the 4-hour exam on his own laptop which requires downloading the test software. With Kevin's first test, the cursor would occasionally move to the middle of the page so it made a mess of things. Kevin was so understandably frustrated! With the second exam, it started doing it every 30 seconds so he ended up having to do his test handwritten--also frustrating since it's difficult to keep up with how fast the brain is going! The tech people looked at his computer for a couple hours and couldn't figure out what was wrong so they basically shrugged their shoulders and told him "good luck." One of his study buddies has an extra laptop, though, so he was nice enough to volunteer it for Kevin to use for the final final. Keep him in your prayers! It is going to be an interesting first semester!
