Happy Birthday Gma & Gpa!

Kaelah is such a lucky girl -- her Grandma & Grandpa have birthdays the same week -- which means two sets of singing & cake! My mom's was butter pound cake with whipped cream, strawberries, & blueberries at our house. The pictures were horrid b/c Dan & I refuse to buy light bulbs for the dinning chandelier we hate. Once they are all burned out we promised ourselves we'll buy a new one. Aren't we silly?My dad likes eating at Country Buffet so he had his cake there -- 3 different kinds! There were lots of laughs that night. Not sure how to pin point the one above....Since we had already practiced with Grandma's birthday, Kaelah was excited to blow out Grandpa's candle. Isn't he sweet to share?
Happy Birthday!

Funny observation: Kaelah is wearing the same dress at Grandpa's birthday and in the previous post. I love it! I do it all the time with Abigail, although it's usually the same three outfits instead of a dress. Oh, and your hair barette takes me back to younger days. You pull it off well.

lol - great observation. The May Fair & my Dad's birthday were actually the same day. It just took me a long time to get the 2nd post for the day up.

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. (:
