Fashionista


Ms. Jade LOVES clothes and putting together outfits. Our friend TZ made this dora dress for her then helped her make the matching necklace, can you say HEAVEN! Yes, Ms. jade was in heaven as you can tell from the photos. The other really cool outfit was inspired by a pair of PJ's her Mimi bought her. Yeah, this girls got a future in fashion (unlike her mom and dad!!!). P.S. TZ also made the very cool bracelet that jade is wearing!

Cutie Pies



Not sure if I ever shared this photo. It's jade and two of her China "sisters" celebrating our 3'd family day. They are all from the same provience in China and are they cute or what! I love this picture because it captures their personalities perfectly!

It is so much fun watching them grow up!

Family Getaway

Yup, this is what it's like when we all get together . . . . video

Easter Pictures and Some Random Shots




Scary People For My Birthday


Jade just started drawing pictures of people this week. Until this point, she was consumed with drawing letters (specifically J's). So this morning she drew me this picture and when I asked her what it was she told me it's a "picture of scary people for my (meaning hers) birthday". OK. P.S. you can see some "j's" across the top of the picture.

Three!

Wow - We can't believe jade is three. Time is flying so fast, it seems like only yesterday she was a baby! Where'd that kid go?

Jade is now in Preschool, riding a big girl bike (with training wheels), is learning her numbers and letters, loves puzzles she even picked out "shoots and ladders" for her birthday, so we have officially entered into the world of board games! Yikes.

Most of these shots are from her birthday. We had cake, Jade got a computer in her bed room (hopefully she'll want to sleep there more often!) and an office of her own (in side of my office). The last 2 pictures are of her office. When I was taking her picture I was told "Go Mommy!Go! This is my office!" Very funny!!

Two Years - WOW

We recently celebrated Chinese New year. We decorated the house, invited some folks over and ate Chinese food (take out!).

Chinese new year this year was pretty close to our family anniversary day, so we celebrated that as well. I can't believe it's been two years, it seems like we've been together forever and that our trip to China was just a dream (a fantastic dream!).

Tonight at dinner Jadie told Scott and I that she wanted to take a tubbie (bath) and then get dressed for her "china" party, and so she did. The pictures in the green outfit were from this evening. What a cutie pie.

New Years Eve

Nanna and her girls

Christmas Lady


We had a great holiday season, here are some pictures from Halloween through to New Year's eve. Wonderful times and boy do they fly!

Jade is still a crazy lady. She's taking Gymnastics, swimming lessons, she LOVES to write, draw and continues to hate to sleep. She is ton's of fun to talk to and has a wild imagination. If you ask her about her job, she'll tell you she works in Florida making things, specifically clocks. She also likes to talk about her feelings - "I don't know what's wrong with me momma, but don't worry, I'll be fine. . ." You've got to love a girl who can emote!
