Hi friends and family,
long time no write. No excuses, just the holiday excitement and preparing for travels has eaten away at the free time so much that sleep is now optional. Yeah, I know... You make time for what's important!
As for the pictures and videos, Easton and Layla are both still under the weather so we haven't been doing much adventuring at all. Both of them have learned to ask for a tissue (politely) and wipe their own nose with varying degrees of success. They are still giggling and playing all day long, just at a slower pace.
Not quite like their normal smiley, happy faces, huh...
You might think Easton plays with Barbie dolls by glancing at this next picture.
But if you look closely you'll see he is really using the Barbie doll container as an airplane transport and storage! His heavy, metal dual-prop airplane is safe and sound as he carries it around from room to room. Meanwhile, Layla has the Barbie doll sitting on the couch combing her hair.
The word "comb" leads me to share the most haunting English language conundrum of all...
tomb
comb
bomb
How do you explain THAT to a two year old? Not that we use the word tomb or bomb often, but all three words are pronounced differently. Oh well, at least I have 18 years with the twins to help explain these unsolved mysteries. Oh wait... Make that 16 years. They are already almost two years old!
The most recent new-found enjoyment around our house is dancing. Everybody dances, even the big, stuffed bear (thanks to Layla).
Time to go choose between sleep and sorting my vitamins for traveling. I can't wait for vacation time and Christmas!
See you in California.

There's more...
Cough

Tough
That's why they say the English language is one of the most difficult to learn.

Ha! And those words seem much more likely to come up in conversation around the house. We are looking forward to getting together during our time in Cali.
