December 25
This morning we celebrated Christmas with our new kiddos and with Sonia and her mom. After naps we had a wonderful Christmas dinner with Sonia's family and Kishi (one of Sonia's friends that is also going to school in Houston, but here on Christmas break obviously). Overall it was a wonderful Christmas! Won't say much more but here's a few pics from the day.

| Reading the Christmas story. Fortunately I have a Chinese Bible on my iPad so Sonia's mom was able to follow along. |

| All the babies got panda hats and scarves. Here's Jacob modeling his. |

| Jacob watching the window washer. In case you're wondering, he's sitting on a board much like a park swing, hanging from a single rope from the roof. After washing the window he lowers himself by giving some slack to the down line much like repelling. |
Heather and I were talking about how when we were married we never imagined in a million years that we might celebrate a Christmas in China with our two new children and the family of our exchange student. We agreed that we wouldn't want it any other way. Loving every day!
