Nolan had his very first eye exam so he could start school.
He did good!
One of our frequent places we stop, Chik-fil-a, had a dress like a cow day and get free food.
So we did just that. Brittany came up with this quick idea and we enjoyed some chicken with good friends.
These beautiful girlies all wearing Matilda Jane pretties. Ella wishes she could see her second cousins more often.
She did it! Potty training 101 was a success! She rocked it out for just turning 2 1/2.
So proud of you Miss Ella!
We had fun at VBS! Ella's first!
Kara talked me into training for our first Half Marathon. We had just finished our very first 9 miler!
The rain made it an adventurous run.
Nana and Ella at Mello Mushroom.
I am telling you.... these kiddos love their daddy! I don't blame them because I love him too!
Nat, you are an awesome husband and dad!
We had some fun times at Southland pool this summer. These two really enjoyed being around each other. They both swim like fish at four years old.
I had to sit in the very back of the van so we had room for Aunt Helen to go to dinner with us.
Ella was not so sure about me sitting back there but holding my finger made her feel better. So sweet!
This is a rare moment these days for Nathaniel. He is almost 9 years old and hardly ever takes a nap but the lake wiped him out that day.

Love all the pictures! So sweet~!
ReplyDeleteCindy, I tried to find your e-mail, but I think it's lost somewhere in my address book. I gave your blog to a friend of mine who may be interested in pursuing adoption...I hope you don't mind. I hope your family is well. Take care. :)
ReplyDeleteAs an adoptive parent myself I am spreading the word about this. . . Grand Rapids Michigan will be hosting the 15th national KAAN (Korean American Adoptee/Adoptive Family) Conference at the Amway Grand Plaza on August 2-4th. This conference will provide meaningful and thought provoking information for any adoptee, adoptive family or professional who works in the adoption field. Youth and childcare programs are available for children ages 2-17. Details on the conference can be viewed at KAANet.org.
