California Science Museum

Jan. 4th. Anna, Caid and I met some church frinds at the CA Science Museum. It was pretty cool. We have been trying to the cool stuff before we move.

Anna's science Fair

Anna holding Ella at her school science fair. She loves to show off her new sister!

Almost Home

Tomorrow Ella will go with us and Tuesday we will fly home! We are so excited to welcome her to our family and welcome her to her new home! We will try to post up pictures as soon as we can and add pictures to her blog that I just set up. I wanted to express our love and appreciation to her incredible foster family that have welcomed us into their lives and into their family!

How fast they grow!!

This was Jan 30 2009 and yes it was beautiful weather that day! And my sweeet boy who has grown soi fast and so independent. The shirt he wears says "Mommys little Monster" and it sao suits him! He is go, go, go and what can I destroy after I distract Mommt with something else I have already destroyed...lol. But his smiles light up each day and his sweet voice talking in "toddlerese" make me wish these days would never end. I never thought I could feel this way, how much love fills my heart when I look at my incredible children. I thank God everyday for the miracle of adoption and for our wonderful birthmother's who trusted us with these angels.

Playing at the park

On Friday afternoons after school, some of the kids (and parents of course) go to a local park to play. Here Anna was playing with her friend Hayley.

On this particular day, I was struck on how much full circle I have come. I had a brief flash of a long forgotten memory of playing in a park kind of like this one when I was Anna's age. There was kind of a nostagia in the memory. And its amazing how much time has gone and here I was watching my children play in a park on a sunny day.

Chinese New Year

Anna's school had this very cute celebration for Chinese New Year. It was fun to watch adn she loved doing it.

Don't kill me!

Okay, okay, Okay, I know it's been too long since I have blogged, so don't shoot me! Here have these!!! We were having a FHE lesson adn after all this time, I sadly don't remember what, but we did color these crowns. SO here we are showing off out crowns! Dave and I shared a crown and we each did half and I colored Caidens, since to him crayons are edible!
