My Babies Are Growing Up!

I'm trying not to cry too much, but Rohan turned 12 this week. He was ordained a deacon and given the Aaronic Priesthood at church, and he's this close to being a teenager. We are so proud of our big boy.

Here are all the boys gathered around to see what Magic the Gathering cards came in his present.

Bruce is growing too. He's kind of attached to his old comfortable clothes and complains when I have to get rid of them because they are too small. He's doing really well in school and helping around the house a lot. At least he's not too big to sit on Santa's lap yet.

Savitri has lost both her front teeth now and the new ones are coming in. It feels like just yesterday that those baby teeth arrived, and now they're gone! She lost her tooth at school, and they put it in a little tooth-shaped box to take home.

She lined up to get on Santa's lap twice. The first time we waited forever, only for her to get to the front of the line and get too nervous to go through with it. The next time, we also waited forever, but she decided to be brave.
