2 months!





We have been home for 2 months now. Sorry I haven't posted in a while, the time just seems to fly by. We have taken the girls to meet extended family, great grandparents, aunts and other friends. They are getting more social and do well in new situations anymore.
We had our first sleepover friend. Bob's niece Anna who is 5 came and spent the night. It was the first time they had met so they were all a little shy at first but after a little while they got along really well.
We got family portraits done at the park by our house. I haven't seen the pictures yet but it went well. The girls got their ears pierced a couple weeks ago. They did really well. They love them! They keep wanting their hair done and headbands are not cutting it anymore. The pictures are of Birtukan with her hair in little puffs. I think I did a pretty good job for my first attempt at girl hair.
The girls started speaking to each other in English now, which is bittersweet for me. They really like to talk on the phone, play with babies and dance. They have a play kitchen but I guess I need to cook more because most of the time they make lotion. I made a homemade lotion for their skin.
We are all ready for winter with snowpants, hats, mittens, and boots. Pretty soon they will be Minnesota girls!
