Dad – So, we haven’t posted anything lately because we haven’t had any time with a new baby in the house, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been doing anything, so hopefully this post will catch us up a bit.

Ethan – For Hallowe’en I was actually Batman, but I got some tiger facepaint a little bit before.

Marlon – I was the Hulk, and I got facepaint too. I made a claw with my hand, and I said, “Roar!”

Ethan – I lost a tooth. It was a little bit wiggly, and I pulled it out with my finger. I’m getting three molars too, but not the number four.

Marlon – I have two teeth out before Ethan, because I bonked my teeth on the floor, and the dentist had to pull t hem out.

Ethan – I did swimming lessons in the fall. And I went to young naturalists in the fall. We banded birds, and we saw bats, and we caught a snake, and we tried to fish with our hands. When we were banding the birds, one flew back inside, and it was flying all over, and we had to catch it again.

Marlon – I did dance class. We did the chicken dance, and we did the hokie pokie, and we did the twist. This movie is ring around the rosie.

Marlon – We did some Christmas decorations, and we made some Christmas cookies. I put the cherries on the cookies. They were candy cherries, and some were green, and some were red.

Ethan – We bought stuff for some bags too. You buy the stuff on the list, and you put it in the bag, and you give the bag to people who don’t have enough money. I made a bag for a boy, and Marlon made one for a girl. I put in a toothbrush and some shampoo and stuff, and I put in some candy too.
