Up High

Afton. The one that everyone wants when the family gets together.  She's cute as can be and plays hard to get.  Every cousin, aunt and uncle tries to win her over and get her to play with them.  We use any tactic:  food, toys, drinks, iphones, jewelry, etc.  Sometimes we are successful but usually it's not long before she's looking for her mom again.  David has always gone with a little trick he started with our little baby Trey called "up high?"  He will ask the nearest toddler if they want to go "up high" and then throw them in the air and catch them.  It usually wins them over and they come back for more.  So, this game was a hit with Afton and worked like a charm to win her over.  So well in fact that she calls David "up high".  He never was uncle David to her, just "up high".  She will see him in a picture and say "there's up high" with her cute little voice.  Or ask when he's not around "where's up high?"  We hope that name sticks.

Is there a weight limit as to "who" can have an "up high" from David? Love the pictures! Cute Afton; cute David---ah, I mean "up high."
