Two crazy girls!!





I really don't know where all the time goes-except that we are always so busy. I am going to try to make a better effort to keep up this blog. I did start working on Zoe's scrapbook of her adoption. I only have a few pages done but some is better than none. Jordyn started karate and seems to really like it. Zoe is starting to talk- "No" is a big favorite. She still hits Jordyn and gets really pissed if Jordyn comes near if I have her in my arms. We are working on that. The girls do get along though - really! They are starting to play together more and more.

Happy New Year






Happy New Year everyone!!! We have been so fortunate this past year and hope next year is just as great. The girls are getting so big and Zoe is developing quite the personality.

We always think about the children that were not adopted and still living in the orphanges in China. It is very disheartening to know that there will be so many more children without families now that China has implemented their new rules this May. I understand they may have their reasons for doing this but hopefully there will be more domestic adoptions in China. I guess I will never understand how there can be so many children without families, not only in China but throughout the world.

We spent the end of the year with friends and family. I posted some pictures of the last few weeks at holiday time. Those of you who know my love of "punk" will understand my appreciation for the mohawk I made with Zoe's hair in the bath. I don't think I would even be pissed if she came home with this style in her teen years. I only hope she makes it a cool color!!
