Please excuse the gratuitous cuteness
but I needed to post more and I appreciate your indulging me!
(I'll pay ya back.)
(No really, post all the cuteness you want and I'll lap it up.
I'm a cute-aholic. Most days I'm drunk on cute!)So, as I was flitting around, trying to capture all this cuteness, I stopped for a minute, put my camera down (yeah....my camera with my prime lens and my speedlight attached on top) gently on the stair while I moved a table and when I turned back, said camera (with the prime lens and the v.e.r.y. heavy speedlight attached) was being waved wildly in the air. By MILANA !!!!
That was sort of the sound that bolted forth from me (with zero self-control on my part). Sounded something like
MIIILLLAAAAAAANNNNAAA !!!!!!!!
and even though I instantly regretted my knee-jerk reaction...
she
didn't
drop
it!
She just froze.
(Oh, did I mention she was standing on a marble floor.
Yeah!)
Ok, back to more cuteness (and pinkness).
That's my little corner of the world.
Please share with us what your “Today” is like in your part of the world and link up with Communal Global!
....and have a great Today!
Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!)
We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home.
This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!

Oh.my.gosh! That first photo was even lovelier than the one yesterday! You are the queen of pink! :)
Z has the same pink leotard as Milana --with the silver ballet slippers in front, but the tutu is slightly different. Oh, if only live closer!
Oh those ballerina's are scrumptious! I am loving all that pink and they wear it so well.
I have heard that shriek when a young one is holding something they ought not. I have on occasion been able to control myself and/or hubby as if watching a deer in the woods whispering quietly "don't startle him/her, but they are holding the (jigsaw, meat cleaver, arsenic, scalpel you name it) and most times they will smile and hand it over - crisis overted.
Coming to your blog is like getting a cookie, sweet and satisfying...always!

How in the world do you stand all that cuteness in one room? They are simply adorable!
I think I would have had a heart attack if I saw my camera that way. The thing is my little one would have thrown it like a football across that lovely marble floor of yours....and then he would look at me with those yummy brown eyes and say "sorry". :-)
Hugs,
Grace
Pretty in pink your girls are so cute and photogenic!
Oh my goodness, I'm dying from cuteness overload. Gorgeous pictures! and gorgeous girls!
Hi Wanda, your girls are super cute... and your shots are awesome as always!!
You keep that cuteness coming Wanda, I'll never tire of it!!!!!
Um...the waving of the heavy camera and speedlight by a certain (adorable) girl would have stopped my heart on the spot. Thankfully it all worked out well. ;) WHEW!
Oh Wanda.... What a gift your friendship has always been, and what a gift this blog of yours is! You always manage to make me smile and laugh out loud! Your description of your story about Milana with your camera!!! I can only imagine how 'interesting' that was! What a miracle it was that your darling Milana held on tight!!!!
Wanda, your girls are stunning. The pictures you take capture them so beautifully.
Btw, LOVE LOVE LOVE the Pink!!!!
