10 months




Date: 1/12/2007
Today marks our 10 month anniversary as being a family. We always do something special on the 12th of the month, and tonight we went to a basketball game at my school. We had a great time.Christmas was wonderful! Addie Mei was so excited to wake up and see all of the presents under the tree! She just shook her arms and proclaimed "PRESENTS!!!!" It was a riot to see her expression. It helped that we had our family Christmas on Saturday night. She knew that those pretty boxes has fun surprises in them! She definately made out!! We were able to stay in the house all day and Adeline just played all day long with her new toys. We had out family pictures taken with the entire family. It was our first official family picture. The pictures turned out great. I will post one once I have the CD. We were able to get a great picture of Addie Mei on a rocking horse. It was an unplanned picture, but it turned out perfect!!We continue to do well. Adeline is learning so many new things. Her speech is coming. She is delayed in this, but it is coming. She tries talking all the time. Words are becoming more clear everyday.One of the cutest things I have observed is watching her put her baby dolls to bed. She holds the dolly close while she rocks her back and forth. She "sings" to her and then places her in the doll bed. She then kneels down next to the bed and prays with her dolly, leans over and gives her a kiss. Melts my heart every time!!! She loves to go to church. I pray everyday for her little heart to love God and serve Him her whole life!!Who hope you had a great start to the New Year!! May 2007 bring wonderful joy to your family.
