On Friday my long-time friend, Bevy, came over with flowers and goodies for the kids.......just because. We had such a nice, relaxed time and I threw together whatever I could find in the fridge. Nice and easy.
Some of Dahlia's school chums came over on Saturday. They were begging to pose for me - practicing their signing for "peace", "I love you" and "yo"!
This confirms that Milana's going to be a leftie.
Dahlia enjoying the family computer, in the family room (loft), where the mother family can monitor things till she is....ummm....20! .
Just enjoying the in-between moments.

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!

What a lovely group of gals! Beautiful captures, too.
I know what you mean!!! I feel this way about Liam. We didn't have a good camera when he was little and I didn't take nearly a quarter of the pictures I have of Em. And I never blogged back then or wrote a journal. We do have a bit more video of him, but it's all those little memories that sneak out of my head that I miss. Totally get it. David and I were thinking about starting a journel now for him where we write down everything we can actually remember since it's only going to get worse!! lol.
Fun link party too!!
The in-between moments count just as much as the big ones. I'm so glad that we now have blogging as a means to help remember these in-between moments. :)
So cute those pics of Dahlia trying to get her Yo fingers going! =)
They are so adorable! Love the peace signs pics! And the picture of the rose is stunning!

Your girls are growing up so fast!! And I hear ya! I wish I had discovered blogging back in college. I have so many wonderful memories that are now fading quicker than I would like them to because I didn't document it somehow.
Just testing. I think my comment thingie is wonky too.
In-between moments are the ones that count the most.
