Porter's jetplane

Christmas wishes came true this year, Santa brought Porter a jetplane and Bodhi a horse. We didn't open any more presents for hours after these toys were opened! Here's a picture of Porter with a chocolate smile and a video of Bodhi riding his horse for the first time.
When we opened the rest, we got things from all over the world, a very diverse, ethnic Christmas. From Auntie Kristen we got things from Laos, Singapore, Burma, Bali and Vietnam - from Auntie Alberta we got things from Honduras and Peru, from Grandma Courtney from India, from Grandma Gail- Australia. We love everything!

Cheers - from tired Mrs. Klaus

Playdough Playdate

Friday, Porter had a play date with a girl from his preschool class that he can't stop talking about. Ivy. He insisted on dressing himself in his nicest button up shirt. Ivy walked inside and he ran up and gave her a full body bear hug. She announced that she was "looking pretty for him." He just laughed, not getting it.
He giggled and wanted to show her everything in his house. I bought tons of playdough and playdough toys because they both like playdough a lot. Then we carved a pumpkin. Ivy modeled good eating by asking to eat oranges and strawberries. Porter was coming off two weeks of being sick and hadn't been eating. He started eating because Ivy was! It was great. Bodhi just observed his brother acting a little goofy and had a knowing smile...
