Feliz Navidad! Love the Smiths

Smith Family 2010
We have been very blessed this year. We are still living in Price Utah. The more we have been here the more I have liked it. Paul is enjoying his job at CastleView Physical Therapy. He also acts as the athletic trainer/PT for the Colleges men and women's basketball team. He loves to work with the athletes. He is also still the young mens president which keeps him really busy. I have stayed busy teaching aerobics twice a week which I'm trying to back away from a little now that I am 30 weeks along. I am the Valiant A primary teacher and help with activity days twice a month. Tacoma stays busy by going to his play group on Tuesday and Thursday and his Preschool on Wednesday. We still only speak Spanish to him at home, but once he started preschool he took off with his English. Which is a good thing but also makes me sad that we have worked so hard with his Spanish, and English comes out. So now me and Paul make him ask for things in Spanish or he doesn't get it. We have also made him say it in English than in Spanish which is neat that he knows the difference between the two languages. Tacoma is a very loving little boy he loves to say besito and give me kisses all of the time. He and Malia now play really well with each other. She would rather play with his toys so she usually carries a purse and a car when she plays. Malia has turned into a little fireball she is more demanding these days. She loves it when Tacoma chases her or gives her kisses. She knows some sign language for milk, more, no more, hot, book. She can say bebe, agua, mommy, dadda, wow wow (dog bark), alley(our dog), she recognizes a lot of animals and says their sound roars like a lion, baa baa, moo, hee hee. She is obsessed with books she loves to bring all of her books and and does the sign language for book and expects you to read to her over and over again.
