Zobot.





Zoe is very flexible and I always find her sitting or laying in different positions. I love that she is not afraid to be herself all the time. She is girlie, tomboyish, snuggly, charming, deceitful, and wonderful.

Family pictures.





I thought it time to do another family picture.

Christmas Presents Galore.









The kids have had a really good Christmas. Ethan opened everything and then played with stuff. Zoe opened one at a time and I had to prompt her to open another one. I took over an hour for them to open everything. Ethan's favorite so far is his Nerf guns, spider man wrist on and a revolver type. Zoe loves her princess register, musical jewelery box, and princess piano. They got to much to list. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas too.

White Christmas!



It started snowing around 11:30 and it hasn't stopped since. It isn't really sticking but it is really big flakes. Yeah for snow (that doesn't stick)! Merry Christmas everyone.

My favorite picture of the day so far.

Ethan got a guitar for Christmas. He likes it alot. He looks like such a big kid playing it. I love this picture. I was mainly trying to see how to get edited pictures on the blog. I finally figured it out.

New cell phone




I got a new cell phone. My old one stopped working. None of the buttons did anything. Ethan was checking it out today and he was making some awesome faces. I love the new phone, and it was less than $30.00. You can't beat that.

Christmas camp out.



After the kids got told that they needed to leave the presents alone they decided they wanted to camp out in front of the tree until Christmas. When we explained it would be two days they gave up. It was really cute while it lasted.

Presents



The kids found where I was hiding all the Christmas presents a couple days ago. Luckily I had already wrapped them. We decided they could just go under the tree now. The kids were so happy. They know they can't open any yet but they like sorting them, comparing who has more, who's are bigger, you get the idea. Ethan asked, "why did we get so many?" I thought we didn't get enough for them. I am so thankful that they are so good and thankful for what they have.

Peacock Lane








There is a street in Portland called Peacock Lane that has a special Christmas light show. All of the houses on the street are decorated with lights and props. The kids liked it alot. The pictures aren't great, I was taking them from inside a moving vehicle.

Water, water, everywhere.











I hadn't taken pictures of the kids in the bathtub for a while, so I took some today. The kids are getting bigger everyday. Sometimes when they take baths they don't want any toys in the tub so that they can swim.

Santa Clause



They had a Santa at my school tonight. Te kids came after I was done with class for the day and said hi to everyone. All the instructors and staff love them. They took a picture with Santa and told him what they wanted. It was really cute and special. This was there first Santa picture ever.

Christmas tree continued



We don't have a star yet, but here is the tree so far.

Christmas Tree



We went to a good friends church to get a Christmas tree. We found a perfect tree and in no time it was tied to the top of the car. This is the kids first real tree. I love that the house smells like Christmas. Tomorrow we will decorate it, so there will be more pictures up soon.

Snow





It snowed today. It all melted as it hit the ground. Ethan was running around trying to catch snowflakes on his tongue. Zoe was being grumpy, I don't remember why. You can see some snow flakes in the pictures as well as the green grass. I love Oregon.
