WOW, WHERE DO WE BEGIN!!!!

It has been much to long since our last update. Our little butterfly has blossomed and grown into a "ham" with a blooming personality. She blesses our days with fun and laughter.

Other SEPTEMBER UPDATE INFO...Filled with many activities and first times.

We finally started cutting teeth. Imagine cutting teeth and no nap....a schizophrenic day with a 14month old.




Our September playdate with the "Jiangxi Sisters" and time for the parents to share and compare their stories with each other. We are so blessed to be ablet o spend this time together. The girls are still hesitant but they seem to recognize each other, just a little while to warm up.

Elysa and JoJO


JoJo and Kimberly


This is the only picture we got with all three of them in one shot somewhat looking at the camera at the same time, far different from the first meeting in earlier in the summer.


First time in the prickly non-watered grass at home, "this feels very weird". Still working on mastering the walking thing so tends to resort to crawling still.


First time trying to figure out the bubble machine, she really enjoyed this


Playing w/Jackson who loves chasing his ball.


First time, "At my friends' soccer game: emme, shelby and lizzy" She was little unsure of it all but she really enjoyed it overall.


Miss Elysa the superstar!


Camping w/gma and mom, while daddy is away. We went to a pumpkin patch w/cousin Aidan and Elysa loved riding on the little horse carousel and the rocking horse.





Making daddy a picure.

Elysa at her favorite indoor playground w/cousin Aidan, she is very possessive of her car.
