Where did it go?

Where did it go?  It used to be that everything went in the mouth- now it goes through the "rabbit hole" to the basement steps when we're not looking.  But the bottom picture is the typical response we get when we ask her where her toy went! She loves to watch the cats go in and out of the door and watches them go all the way down the stairs and waits for them to come back up.  Every evening Christopher or I go down to the basement with a basket to bring up all the toys that were banished from the playroom!  Thank God she can't fit through the hole or we'd be in BIG trouble! 

Gotcha Day Video

So this is just a rough cut of our Gotcha Day.  As many of you know, we lost our Gotcha Day video, so this is what I put together with photos from our friend Carson.  Carson and his wife Jessica received their 2 year old daughter Avery on the same day.  This video still needs some cleaning up and I plan to do another video including other photos from our trip and return home. Enjoy and please feel free to leave comments!

What's this for?!

Yes indeed...what is this for?  Well, Cadie, it's a crib for sleeping in!  I could probably count on 1 hand how many times Cadie has slept in her crib.  She's quite enjoying all the cuddling, snuggling, and kissing she's getting by bunking with mom and dad.  We don't really mind it either...as sleep deprived as I am, I love the feeling of having her right there beside me (or on me, as she is most nights)!  I have to say, the powers that be have an uncanny knack of getting the right child with the right mommy, because snuggling is something me and my daughter both love to do!

Snow Day!

Finally, a little snow fall!  This was Cadie's first experience with snow, as she is from Southern China she never really experienced cold air (except for the cold snap in Guangzhou)!  The sled was designed and assembled by Cadie's Aunt Kelly.  She wasn't so sure at first, but really came to enjoy herself.  We had a good snow day!
