Dahlia and Milana have really hit their stride. They play together almost all the time now and Milana is learning so much from imitating (and forced learning - Dahlia is a hard task-master) her big sister.
Nothing unusual about two sisters playing together except there wasn't very much of that happening around here for the first year and even two. But they're certainly making up for any lost time. And it's so much fun for me to just sit back and watch and listen to all their escapades.
Milana obliged her big sister by letting her put on a bunch of dress-up outfits and parade around. Each time I heard the announcement "Ladies and Gentlemen....I now present Miss Milana Malfara as a fairy princess" I'd whip around at my desk and catch a picture or two of the little one....strutting her stuff and practicing her best "cheese"!
And does she have A.T.T.I.T.U.D.E.!!!
She's learning it from the best.
(.....no..ahem....not me......)
her big sister of course.
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!

Beautiful, happy girls!!
thats too cute! I always says Benjamin is very lucky his sister normally likes to be a tiger or soem sort of animal so at least when she dresses him up he's not a princess or soemthing like that. Isn't it wonderful them playing together.
So adorable! It's great that they are playing together. Naomi keeps asking me if we could adopt a 5 year old girl to be her sister - lol!
The most beautiful sounds to my ears are the sounds of my girls giggling and playing together. Enjoy!

They are adorable...and you can see just how well they are getting along! So happy they have found their groove.... I know it was not exactly easy in the beginning. Time was all they needed:)
Lots of love~
