These two pictures are some of our first days together in China. Jason and Olivia are bonding in this picture. Actually, I think she is probably thinking "What in the world is he saying to me?" By the way, that is not a hickey on my husbands neck, it is a birthmark :-) He is paranoid about it.
EEEKK!!!! Everytime Olivia and I see this picture, I scream really loud like the picture is terrifying me and Olivia just starts laughing hysterically.
Hey girl, glad you found me. :) Come visit my blog anytime. I love the pictures of your girl....that last one for sure. I had a lot of fun dancing today...good workout...I for sure will be back next Wednesday. You better be there!!! :)
Have I ever mentioned my love and fascination for Olivia's feet??? I love this baby more than anything in the world. The only thing I may possibly love more is her feet!!! :o) Thank you Mandie for taking this picture for me. This picture was taken at Fall Creek Falls last weekend. We went camping for 8 days last week and had a blast. Lots of updates and pics to come. Especially next week, someone is turning 5 next week :o)
Friday was camo day at school. I am usually prepared for these things, but for some reason hadn't looked at the calender until Thursday last week, only to find that Friday (the next day) was camo day. So, I called Olivia's cousin Hayden (who is 8 months younger than her I might add) and asked if we could borrow some camo clothes. They, of course, said yes, but the britches fell off her tiny hiney!!! :o( So, needless to say, this little camo hat & some green shorts are all I could come up with, but they worked. I bought the hat at Wal-Mart several months ago on clearance thinking it would never be worn, but I bought it anyway.. Thank goodness I did.. Her teachers told me when I went to pick her up that the hat and hair didn't last very long that day.. Oh well.... All that stress for nothing! She could've cared less! :o)
All I am going to say about this holiday is that we are truly one blessed family. This Christmas was really special at our house and I will NEVER forget it. I love my life & family and sometimes wonder how in the world I became so lucky or why God chose me to have everything that I do. All I can do now is thank Him with all my heart, and that's just what I do everyday. On another note, Jason & I have decided to pursue adoption again and/or try to have a child biologically. Please pray for us and God's guidance in this next journey of our lives. I am really nervous. I just feel like I don't have the patience I should with Olivia, let alone another baby, but for some reason we feel like God is leading us in that direction. I hear this is a common worry among mothers though. I hope so. Another thing, I am 36 years old. I am no spring chicken and I have had LOTS of fertiliy issues. We shall see. God can do anything though if that's what He has planned for us. I know...
