Eva's turn.
I have tried over and over to upload the videos from my phone. Here's one of Eva singing at preschool. Maybe one or two more will come later, but probably not.
It worked!! I guess pregnancy insomnia has its perks. It's much easier to upload a video in the middle of the night than in the middle of the day. :)

Baby Lil got her hair cut.
I loved Lilia's hair, but ever since her sister gave her a haircut we've had trouble getting it under control. It doesn't take much to make it look shaggy and crazy. We, and by we I mean I, decided to get the sweet girl a bob. Here she is.

After! I think she looks so sweet with the short cut.

The Best Way to Spread Christmas Cheer is Singing Loud for All to Hear
You'd think this post was about us seeing Santa, but that hasn't happened yet.
Colby's school had a Christmas program last night at a local all-you-can-eat pizza place so it could also be a fundraiser. It was crazy busy, and I mean CRAAAAZY, especially with kindergarten being at least 3 times as big as the other classes. But it was very cute and sweet. Colby has improved drastically over last year's Christmas program. Although he was swaying a little and looking for us at the same time and fell off the first row of risers and almost knocked over the microphone. Too bad I didn't get that on video.
Something I noticed that was weird, are there two versions of Away in a Manger? I thought the song went, "The stars in the heavens looked down where he lay," but the kids sang, "The stars in the sky..." which is just bizarre since they were singing about Jesus to begin with, how is "heaven" not an okay word to use?
I got to talk to Colby's teacher and she said he has been sooo good this week. Last week was his first FULL WEEK of green smiley faces!!! I was so excited for him! Then she told me she thinks it is because she's totally abusing the Santa Clause thing. She has a naughty and a nice list on the blackboard and Colby must really want to stay on the nice list. :) He's so excited about Santa coming to town!!
Eva's preschool singing post is yet to come!

My favorite!
I'm having serious issues uploading the right video from my phone. So enjoy this video of the Jack Johnson concert I tried to upload back when that happened and couldn't get it uploaded.
