Fun Weekend

We went out both Friday and Saturday night this past weekend. On Friday night we went to Denny & Cynthia's to watch Narnia: Prince Caspian. We decided not to worry about the kids bedtime and let them fall asleep over there. Everything went very smoothly and it was fun staying up with friends until midnight...it ahd been awhile since that has happened.
On Saturday night Ana, who cleans on Wednesdays, came over to watch the kids while we went to a bday party. It was the first time we left the kids with someone who doesn't speak English. She told us that she tried to tell Adeline "no intiendo" (I don't understand). I really hope to get Adeline in some kind of dance/gym class sooner than later to expose her to more Spanish. She's picking up on things I say. Tonight she learned to tell Darton "no para ti" (it's not for you).

Back to Saturday night....We left the bday party at 10:15p and they had yet to eat!! Thankfully we have been here long enough to know to get a bite to eat before heading to a party (even one that serves food).

Opening Christmas gifts from Poppa & Mama that they sent with Andrew and Steph.
We let Darton eat his oatmeal with his hands!! Adeline got a play kitchen this weekend. We bought it for $75 from a missionary couple leaving. The purchase included lots of play food & dishes. I'm telling you the price we paid because new in the States it is $120 and new here it is $370!! She didn't bother to ask to get out of bed Sunday morning, but went straight to her kitchen to start cooking. She is having lots of fun.

Darton can pull himself up on things. I think he's going to start doing a lot more over the next month while we are in TX.
