Sunny Sunday Afternoon

By Sarah
We've been so busy shopping lately we haven't taken many pictures...
...so here's some from last Sunday when we met friends at the park.
Why the shopping? Well, it so happens Kaelah is outgrowing her 24 mo/2T clothes, size 6 shoes, Dan wore out all his work clothes (including shoes) and I literally wore holes in my jeans & my shoes were definitely dead. Thank goodness for tax refunds!
Check out Kaelah's outfit from Naartjie & Baby Gap. On clearance too. Love it!
Kaelah is talking in phrases and sentences now. I'm continually surprised for a new word, animal sound, or answer to a question when I didn't really expect her to understand. She's certainly getting ready to turn 2 this summer. Let the time outs begin.

Love the hair!! It is a cute outfit. I'm heading to
K-Mart today for shopping. They have their stuff marked down to $3. I hope to find some good stuff. I sure did last year!

Very cute outfit. We love carter's! We always get the girls clothes for $2 or $3. And they last a really long time, through 2 girls and longer maybe.

Oh also, I would offer to hand you over some of Abby's clothes, except she is so small, she is still in 18 month clothes at 2 years and 3 months, so that would not be helpful.

The speech therapist in me is glad to hear that Kaelah is making excellent progress with her speech and language milestones! What a cutie! Isn't it fun to go shopping for new outfits. :D

Kaelah is getting sooo big! And I really enjoyed the quotes you shared. You should read the books by Orson Scott Card called the Women of Genesis...there's Sarah, Rebekah, and Rachel and Leah. They're great!

$2 or $3 for clothes? Fantastic. I was pumped those Baby Gap pants were less than $5! Do moms go crazy at those sales? How do you know when they are? And I'm totally going to check out those Orson Scott Card books!

Precious Pumpkin

By Sarah
Our Halloween pictures finally made it to the computer. I won't state the name, but let's just say we know a certain 15-month-old who likes to hide things, especially if they are small & silver like a memory card reader. (: Oh look, here she is now, dressed up as a pumpkin fairy! And check out the super neat pumpkin Danny carved. We actually had neighbors make the effort to come compliment him before trick-or-treating began! I have never experienced a Halloween where families hang out on the porch to hand out candy the entire night! I just can't get over how wonderful the weather has been this fall. If there weren't long term consequences, I could really like global warming. Here's the cute little girl helping to hand out candy. She was a huge hit with the teenage trick-or-treaters. My favorite costume of the night was a guy dressed up as a kissing booth. When Dan asked him if that was working for him he replied, "I got a kiss from a 6-year-old ...

Danny's 1st Year Video

By Sarah
Exactly one year ago today we got a call from our case worker. He told us there was a birth mother thinking of placing her son with us for adoption. Usually he didn't make such phone calls before an official decision was made, but he felt that this little boy was meant for us & we needed a little warning b/c the due date was June 12. Low & behold, 4 days later he called to say Dani had chosen us to be her baby's parents. 2 weeks later, we were bringing Danny home from the hospital. It is difficult to believe Danny's birthday is only 2.5 weeks away. When I look back I feel he & I were a little gipped with me getting pregnant so soon after he was born & becoming a big brother at only 9.5 months, but he is so healthy & happy. There is no way he could have been any better of a baby... I'm convinced he is the easiest/best little guy to have ever graced the planet. We are so blessed. He is truly a joy of a boy.

No check up, but doing great!

By Sarah
The pediatrician thought Kaelah was doing well enough to skip her 15-month check up... but I can't resist a formal update before she turns 16-months-old tomorrow. Of course I'll put this first on the list: Kaelah said her first Chinese word last week! Bi zi for nose -- which she heard for the first time in Hawaii. Looks like I'll have to pick out word #2 soon! Kaelah is selective about the music we listen to now. She'll either say, "no" or begin dancing. We're thrilled she will now fold her arms while we pray over the food & by her crib at night. Kaelah will also say "yummmm" while eating & will give high 5's and knuckles. I think you'll pick up most of the rest from the video. (:
