It is hard to keep updating the blog; everytime we think of something to write, its time to run off to something else...

Tem and Tessa have kept us busy, but they make us laugh all the time!
Maybe its their ridiculously fast conversations they have with each other in Amharic.
Or the way they can spend hours making beaded necklaces.
Or Tessa doing her hair in the mirror for half an hour and continually saying, "Yes! Yes!"
Or watching them put in a home video from our summer camp for the 50th time, laughing at the same parts everytime.
Or their insane love for pizza (seriously they could eat it for every meal; tonight Tessa ate two pieces of lasagna because she thought it was "pizza").
Or Tessa walking around the house using whatever English she knows: "I love you, sister! Broccoli head! Shoes! DVD! Yes!"
Or the way Tem hides behind the door every day dad gets home from work to jump out at him (Tem thinks it is the funniest thing in the world).
Or Tessa's "nap times" when we usually discover her sitting up in bed playing with dolls or pretending to read books.
Or their excitement to ride in the car (they run around the house looking for their shoes saying "Mequina! Beep! Beep!")
Or Tem attempting to take notes in church by copying the diagram that the pastor puts on the screen.
Or Tessa singing part of the Ethiopian national anthem while she rode the carousel at the mall because she saw a flag.
