Fun in Austin and other summer pics!

If you can believe it . . . my 3 year old son took these pictures of K while in Austin! They just love to play w/ the camera . . . and this time he got some really good pics!

K was playing outside in the cars and at the end of this blog, i attached a funny video of her pushing it! Don't worry, no one was hurt!

We took a long weekend trip to Austin, TX to visit some friends and as you can tell, had a great time!

She had a bunch of fun on the plane . . . .luckily we had nice passengers behind us! :)
And, yes she's laughing in the video-not crying! :)

SUMMERS HERE!

It's finally warm outside and we can play, play play! Here's a few pictures of the summer thus far!

Do you love my beautiful hat!!! Friends of ours gave it to her when she came home to us-very fun!

Driving in big 'bro's fancy-dancy car! They love to drive around together-very cute!

Here's a short video of K and G hanging in the back yard-Ks got some funny moves to show off!

New Spring Photos

May 17th . . . not only my Birthday, but the day we were referred K! One year ago the phone rang and my jaw dropped! What a Birthday present! Below are a few pictures of her at the time of referral. This one is a very recent picture-boy has she changed! Such a curious, outgoing, Loving girl. She has gotten so big so fast! She'll be 2 in August and she's growing so quickly. I can't believe it's been 7 months since she's been home w/ us. Although looking at her early pictures, she looks so different to me, so baby like. Whereas now she is all toddler! She has brought such joy to our hearts! Happy Referral Day K!


This is a picture of her and I just after meeting. The wall in the background is at the TWCA in Taiwan. This is the agency that worked with our agency to facilitate the adoption. Everyone can sign the wall in the background who have adopted through them. It's neat to read other peoples words especially after meeting them through my agency!

These were our referral pictures. She was 9 months old at the time of referral.

Here are some more random pictures . . . I'm terrible at blogging, it's been a long time-i've been sooooo busy that i haven't been able to update as much as I'd liked. Hope you enjoy! :)

This is a beautiful blanket my cousin T made for K! You can tell she loves it! Thanks T!!!

Our Beloved W turned 6 years old this April!!!

After pictures!

Here is a short video of K putting her head band on. I apologize for the bad focusing-the camera kept going in and out of focus for some reason. That's what you get for a novice filmmaker! :)

New pictures, Meeting other JOH'ers and Trip to LA and more!

HAPPY EASTER!

Kudos to SouthWest Airlines helping mommy fly ALONE to LA w/ 3 young kids! Yes, alone! Can you believe it-i survived! Thank goodness Daddy flew home w/ all of us!

Kids loved the Star Wars Legos! So cooooooollll! Although, G was too frightened to get a picture w/ Darth Vader! :)

K first haircut-as you can tell, she wasn't so happy at first . . . .but, wait! Next came a lollipop, and you can see she was all smiles from then on!

Nice and neat-doesn't she look great! :)

Meeting friends from JOH that also adopted from Taiwan recently! We all met in ChinaTown. It was great seeing everyone and meeting their little ones!
