A few more photos

Tiana has been enjoying playing with her gifts. Here are a few from the last couple of days.

Tiffany and her gifts

Here are a few photos from the last few days. The first ones are of Christmas Eve at my mom's house. As you can see there are quite a few grandchildren. Always plenty of laughs and noise. :)

The second few are of Christmas Day. Tiffany woke us all up at 6:30a.m...... I could not get a smiling photo of Christopher. He just wanted to go back to bed.

Wonderful Christmas Gift!

I woke up this morning to a wonderful surprise in my e-mail box. New photos of our son. I can not believe how fast he is growing up. The photos of him smiling absolutely melted my heart. :) We also received an update. He is 26.6lbs and 31.2 inches tall. I sure hope the clothes I have been buying him are going to fit by the time we travel. :) :) Enjoy!!!

Gotta love those kids!!!!!

In my feeble attempt to get a perfect picture for our VERY LATE Christmas cards, we had a few not so perfect ones. Take a look at a few of the comical bloopers! ;)

Tiana visits Santa

Tiana loves Santa. I have been promising her for a couple of weeks that we would go see him at the mall. I wish I would have had a video camera. She could not get in his lap fast enough, and then she gave him a great big hug. She did not want to get down when it was time the leave and cried all the way out of the mall saying "my turn again".

Joys of Childhood

Remember when you were little and your mom baked a cake? You fought with your siblings over who was going to get to lick the mixing paddles? :) Unfortunately due to eggs not being as safe as in the past, its one childhood joy that our children have missed out on. Tonight Tiffany made a cake and used pasteurized eggs, so we let Tiana have this little indulgence. As you can see from the photos she thoroughly enjoyed herself.

Tiana's first time to fly a kite

Tiana has been asking her Baba for weeks to fly a kite. This morning they went out and bought some string for her kite. It is a beautiful windy day, perfect for kite flying. Hope you enjoy the photos.
