Talkin' bout a heat wave...





























With temps. in the teens and mid twenties for the last few days....a high of '44' feels like a heat wave. Everyone's ( Well...everyone but dear ole Daddy) has been sick with a stomach bug...including me...and we're still trying to recup. The boys have been busy in their Upward basketball this month...and Ella's been busy just being 'cute' ! She is talking more and more each day and will repeat anything that's said. She LOVES books and her baby dolls...(her Guatemalan baby doll...Sofia...was a present from Santa) She was in her room last week playing while I was cleaning my bedroom and when I went back in to check on her ...she had her baby in the stroller with her baby's diaper bag flung across her shoulder ! It was just too cute ! Have a great week and enjoy the newest pictures of the three amigos...

Hot Rod...



















Is into everything !! Holy Moly....I've forgotten how quickly a one year old can go from sitting at your feet....to playing in the toilet bowl... I cannot leave her alone for one tiny second....and she's into something else ! But....she's just a joy and we have had so much fun with her since we came home SIX months ago ! We are finishing up the final paperwork for her 're-adoption' here in the USA next week !
