The Great Renaming

So out of the blue a few weeks ago, Colin started calling his sister "Annie". Now his sister is actually named Kathryn Alison. We typically call her Katie (unless she's in trouble, in which case we call her "Kathryn"), and we've never once called her by some other name. So we were puzzled.

The plot thickened when he renamed his little brother "Quincy" and himself "Leo". We were stumped. Did he not like the names we had chosen? Was he doing a kindergarten project on names? Were they reading a book in class?

Then we finally figured it out: Annie, Quincy, Leo, and June are the four Little Einsteins. We started watching the Disney show after seeing an episode on Michelle and Wilson's Tivo at Ryan's birthday party, and it's now their favorite show.

(Incidentally, Colin is now lobbying for yet-another-sibling so we can have a 1:1 match with the four Little Einsteins. We told him he could call cousin Leann "June" to complete the set if he absolutely needed to.)
