Leila's First Easter

Leila was happy looking in at the Easter Bunny from the other side of the fence;)



Mommy, why is this big bunny looking at me?



Her pretty Easter dress. Leila was standing in front of the forsythias in our yard. I planted these in honor of my Nana who loved them. I wish they could have met.








On Easter we visited baby lambs & chicks at a local farm.

Fun day with the Rathke Girls

We had a great visit Last week from Ellen, Jillian & Claire Rathke. As many of you know, we traveled with them to China last Summer. Claire is 5 months older than Leila; they are about the same size and Claire can say Leila's name- it was so cute to watch them interact!

The Best Christmas Ever!

This Christmas was truly special. After waiting for over 5 years, we finally have our beautiful little Leila with us to spend Christmas. We all cherished our time with her.

Our beautiful little angel. ( the ray of sunshine was perfect in this picture :)

Big Surprise: our very good friend & former babysitter Denise stopped in for a visit. We LOVE her and wish she hadn't graduated grad school before Leila joined our family. (Although we're so proud of her)
