June - play time

What a ray of sunshine!! :)
A play date with Carlie (L) and Annalyse (R), we were all in the same orphanage in China and travelled home together. Our moms met half way so we could all visit. Carlie (left), was my cribmate in the Diang Jiang orphanage...so I'm told, but I don;t really remember...Carlie doesn't seem to either??? Oh well! :)
Just goofing around... :)

Shekina turns 19 months - May 16, 2006

Good AM...Hmmm what shall we do today?




Well, I guess I'll go and get dressed....


Well now, the most important thing is to put on my bracelets ( that we creatively recycled from our shower curtain rings!!!)
I love any kind of shoes or slippers...


I thought I'd start a new trend - nose rings are passe.... How do I look so far? :)


My mom says I'm getting too tall for my diaper changing table as I'm 32 inches tall now, that's 2 feet and 8 inches!!! :) Bunny still fits on here though! :)
We now, I have a very busy day....see you later tonight.....

It's bath time and I'm washing my hair. I love this part as mommy gets me lots of soap suds that I love to play with! :) But I'm not real big on the rinsing part!!!
How do you like me new hair do???

My 1st Mother's Day - May 14, 2006

What a special day to finally be able to celebrate Mother's Day as a "mom" for the very first time...after 46 years!!! We enjoyed lunch at one of my favorite restaurants....




Shekina loves the food here too! :)
You're the best Daddy! :)
Boy, do I love my noodles...we had fun doing this in China...so we now carry on the tradition here too! :)



Mmmm good...:) Happy Mommy's Day!!! :)

Our Third Wedding Anniversary - May 3, 2006

A "tradition" on our wedding anniversary is that I get dressed up in my wedding gown and we enjoy watching our wedding video!! :)






















Our little princess trying on the veil for size...
Hmmm...not big on that comb digging into my head...
Well, that's not soo bad now :)








"Mommy, I'm very busy calculating the costs of this wedding on my calculator"
(Shekina is always carrying something in her hands!!)....

Daddy time! :)
