We made the very, very long trip to go see Zoo Lights! The boys LOVED it. They especially LOVED the train ride. (Josh kept saying "woo-woo" and pointing to things saying "dat!" when he liked the lights.....)
They did really, really great. They ran a lot of their energy out - and loved looking at all the lights and identifying which animals were there. We're thinking about (next time we're going to Portland, as there's not much going on near us...!) hitting PIR, Peacock Lane and the Grotto. We'll see though.
Next up on our list: Visiting Santa.
The boys have made out their Christmas Wish List - and we have mailed letters to Santa.
Josh wants a "dolly" (I have to laugh, because Stann cringes at this...but it IS normal for little boys to want to hold and love babies I tell him...) and he wants "little people" - which we've already got for him.
Matt wants a wrench. A BIG wrench. Where did this tool obsession come from? Who fostered this in this child?! (LOL) He is his father's son....! Still not used to him running whenever he hears "Ask this old house" music come on. It's really a sight to behold!!! :)
Anyways....I'm hoping this won't be my last post for December. There's lots and lots more to update you on....I could brag on and on about the new things they learn daily....the small victories that are won - Matt learning to use his words to express his frustration, rather than his teeth...Joshua finally understanding he needs to keep his diaper and pants on during his nap. We celebrate the little things....!
We hope you all are having a wonderful, happy Holiday. We wish you the very best, send our love as well as the boys' and hope you have a very, Merry Christmas!
