Fall Fun

When you have a waited for something soooooo long to happen,sometimes you find that you almost need to pinch yourself to see if it's real. I woke, clearly knowing that there were two kids in my kitchen. Havin'a hell of a time.

 when we went apple picking, there was a corn field too, Jason and Miss Diva was hiding , trying to scare momma. Silly guys!

 Playing outside with some of her daycare friends. She really likes riding all the riding toys.

                                                              playing with finger puppets

 This is just a little glimpse of  her silly personality. She is such a ham and we love seeing the happy and healthy side of her.

                                              LOOK!!! She has piggytails.....yayyyyyy!

Pickin' Apples

 Here we are @ Orchard Home Farms, heading off to find some apples to take home us. She was excited!

 Miss Diva found some apples, you should of heard the noises she was making when she was trying to pull them of the tree. Finally, I heard "Mamaaaaa Help!"

                                          Picking Gala apples together. I turly enjoyed this.

 She thought it was quite funny to play pick a boo with baba on the other side of the apple trees. Isn't this picture just adorable?

                                                    off to find more apples with baba

                    Miss Diva trying to pick up the loot of apples we picked. She is so funny.

                                                         the proudest momma in the world

                                           off to find the pears that we were going to pick.

Just another one!!!

Wanted to post this picture because I think I have a very talented mother in law who is enjoying knitting things for miss diva. The sweater that she is wearing in this pic is one that she knitted. I think it's beautiful.  When miss diva put it on and said "whoooo". I think she really liked it as well.

5 months...Already????

  Can you believe it.. We have been home 5 months already!!! Five months ago we were signing the final paperwork with the government officals  to make the adoption final. In this picture is the americian couple who adopted a little guy from the same orphanage & Half the Sky Program as Miss Diva. He also had a cleft lip/palate. He is now living in South Carolina.

Also, in the afternoon , we spent it with our friends that travel to Hohhot with us. We turly miss them and hope to see them soon.We love you Eloise!

Need I Say More.......

We had family come visit us today from Newfoundland and Niagara. This would be their first time seeing miss diva. She was such a ham. They brought her presents which she was happy to receive but thrilled with the tissue paper. This is her wearing one of the presents she received. Miss Diva suits her well. Thanks Tammy , Emily and Viola.

                                                        Mama's and baba's baby girl.

                                                     Miss You nanna, please come soon!xoxox

Madisyn and Great Grandpa Brook

Grandpa Brook as been trying to hold Madisyn for months already but she just wouldn't go near him. Everytime he would visit or we would go to visit, he would have smarties to see if she would go up with him. She wouldn't even think about it.

On thursday night, I had everyone here for a BBQ. Madisyn was putting stickers on everyone including the dog. She noticed grandpa had smarties in his shirt pocket. She kindly said "please grandpa" So they shared smarties together and she finally sat with him. They both had a smile from ear to ear.
