A Limo?!

Mia got to experience a limo for the first time on Sunday night! Momma and some girl friends went to see 'Pink' in concert, and treated themselves to a little luxury... At first she was a little confused seeing such a long car, but quickly decided it was fun to play in!


Limo Play Time!

And play she did... I'm pretty sure we've got a movie star in the making, cause she looked all too natural in the back of that big car! Gotta love the pig tails...

Gotcha Day Celebration!

In the realm of Chinese adoption, 'Gotcha Day' is a big thing. Gotcha Day is the day that you finally hold your new child for the first time, after a very long wait... We held Mia in our arms for the first time on September 17th, 2007. Can you believe it's been 2 years already?! We can't... Time flies so fast. To celebrate our 2nd anniversary together we went out to dinner at 'The Great Wall', a fabulous Chinese restaurant in town. As usual, Mia was the center of attention. During dinner Mia noticed that their was a dance floor, and insisted that Daddy dance with her. She showed off her twirls... She's the best, and we're very lucky to be able to share our lives with her!


Big Lover!

After getting Mia out of the car to head into dinner for our Gotcha Day celebration, Mia spontaneously wrapped her arms around Daddy and gave a very long, and very loving, hug! These are the moments that make life worth living!!


"We Had Great Fun Today!"

Always the entertainer! Mia does the most amazingly cute things... Each night at bed time Mia takes a tubby with Daddy, then Mommy reads a few books and they lay down together. Lately, as Mommy is singing our angel to sleep, she has started this new thing where she interupts the song and blurts out, "We had great fun today Momma!" It is amazingly sweet and perfectly matches her loving character. We love our angel!

Wanna Play With Me?!

This is the view that awaits Daddy every evening when he gets home from work! Not two steps in the door is this adorable little face, holding out her hand and asking, "Wanna play with me?". How could anyone resist? Absolutely adorable...


Hmmmmm, what could it be?!

Mia sure was curious to know what is going on with Mommy's belly! Hmmmm, what could it be?!

Ice Cream Buddies!

For Labor Day we hung out at the pool at our Club with some close friends. Russell & Christine brought Sascha to hang out with Mia. Here are the midgets sharing some ice cream in the heat! It's amazing that Sascha is almost 5 years old now, when we met her she was just a baby and we were dreaming of bringing home our Mia some day... Now, here they are having fun in the sun! We are truly lucky.
