Happy Chinese New Year!!!!!

We celebrated Chinese New Year last night with several families. We had a great time talking to all the other families, but we got to enjoy watching Olivia play with all the other kids. She's really starting to warm up to them. She is changing so much in so many ways. We waited a long for that precious smile in the last couple of pictures!!!

Sweet Pictures from our FCC Party!!!!

Christmas is Coming!!!

Her second Christmas with us!!! She's learned to say her whole name, but she's a little confused about her middle name so she says....Olivia Scales Lan. The first picture was an outfit given to her by a really special friend, Kristy. It finally fits!!!

Look "Body"

Her new favorite words...... "Look Body" (look everybody). Wow, has she ever learned to talk lately. Her newest thing is to line her "babies" up so they can see her doing EVERYTHING!!!! It's such a blessing to see her grow and change so much during the last year. The other ones are a few Thanksgiving pictures with her Pop and Uncle Kevin.

Our Little "Rina"

Olivia's first Halloween to dress up and she was a "Rina" as she called it. She's just talking up a storm lately. She loved the part of dressing up, but she wan't so sure about all those people knocking on our door with funny looking faces!!! She's trying to dance on the last two.

"Nunt-nin" Patch

Which would translate to the pumpkin patch. This time last year we went to the very same place and she couldn't even walk. Now she's smiling and doesn't even look like the same little girl. Couldn't you just eat that sweet little face?
