WHEW!! We are officially on vacation now. well...the teachers are, at least. Jared still has next week and then we are off to France! Yippee. I feel so exhauated. The last two months flew by and I have had a hard time keeping up on harrisites!

Our news.....
1. Ethan got a haircut today. He is talking more and more and playing sooo much. He loves imaginative play...with animals, cars, airplanes. He still loves books and can sit for almost an hour with a pile of books around him, quietly turning and staring at each page! He is sweet with his little sister too, and will practice reading with her, babbling as he tries to explain each picture she is trying to slobber all over!
2. Our little Isabella is eating rice cereal and applesauce now!! AND she ROLLED OVER for the first time this week. Jared saw it first. She is so sweet and loves to play! Her favorite toy is a silver spoon and a colorful giraffe. She loves to stare at our faces and reach out to touch our cheeks. She is so loving and sweet!! She is losing her dark hair and light hair is coming in underneath. She still sleeps like a champ too!
3. All of us are loving Isabel (our new nanny). Ethan runs downstairs to give her a goodnight kiss each night. She tickles him and dances with him. She adores Bella too!

Can't wait to be in Europe with mom! But I am glad to have this next month off to be at home with our babies. I must have been stressed lately, because I feel EXHAUSTED!! Yesterday we said goodbye to teachers and friends who have found new positions around the world. That is the international life..a constant turn over. But it is still hard each year, to say goodbye!
