A Little Of This And A Little Of That

It has been awhile since I have posted. My longest absence from the blog. Lots of good times are taking place and my babies are growing just a bit too quickly. Abbey is reading chapter books, and is too smart for my own good. Carina has been potty trained for quite awhile now. She got her trip to Build A Bear as a reward. She picked out Hello Kitty just like her Jie Jie did when she accomplished this wonderful milestone. Another thing I have to mention is that Carina went to the dentist and has very healthy teeth. Anyone who has a dear little one from China knows that this is wonderful news. I had been stressing about taking her to the dentist for some time, so all I can say is "what a relief." Ellie is quite the little toddler. She shows no fear. Swings on anything she can, jumps off the couch, but couldn't get any sweeter. She is talking like a champ, but I wouldn't expect any less since both her sisters have the gift to gab. At the end of the day no one thinks these little girls are as sweet and wonderful as I do. I have a happy (most of the time), healthy family. Not a day goes by that I don't think about how fortunate I am because it doesn't always happen this way.
