Shaela Loves the big ("DA!") trucks

Debbie & Shaela in the tall grass sporting their new hair cuts.

Yeye turned this ordinary napkin into an extraordinary hat.

Here is the koi pond in our new house.

Our new fishy family members

All play stopped once Shaela got her hands on the ball at the adoption pick nick

Shaela Updates: She weighs about 25 pounds, but has grown quite tall, as you can probably see from the photos. Shaela is starting to try to say new words. She is saying the alphabet with Debbie. New words include: duck, cat, cow, knee, milk (she can say it now, even though she prefers to use the sign still) and "No". Most used words are: Da (Chinese for big), wet, no.
More photos and videos to follow. Blessings Debbie, Justin & Shaela. (& the doggies & fishies...)

Sorry we haven't posted photos in a while, but things have been a bit crazy with the move.
Now that we are in the house and actually have both a phone and an internet connection, I decided it was time for some photos and posts.

Her is Shaela getting ready for the move by helping out with the packing and sweeping.

Shaela is trying out the banko (sp?, spanish bench) in our new living room.

Shaela is having some fun with a paper crown in the kingdom of boxes.

Here Shaela is trying to get the Koi at the acupuncture school to eat her finger.

Shaela's hair is getting long and she has the tough kid attitude going here.

We were having some fun at Party City trying out the goods.
