Johnny was JUST CUTE… he would say the funnies things….
One of my favorite things was… He was playing with Lilo… running with his toy down the hall…. And Lilo wasn't following him….  I told him to Call Lilo to come….. SO He puts his Hand Up to his ear like he's making a phone call…. and is talking to LILO…Just TOO Cute…
Bob cooked up some Great meals…. and we just enjoyed our time with Hailey and Johnny….
