Apple Picking

Fall is my favorite season. I couldn't wait for the first crisp weekend so that I could take my girls apple picking. Kailei enjoyed using the pole picker and being lifted into the trees by her Papa. Meilin was content walking around eating her apple. Funny thing is, I have been trying to get her to eat apples. I peel them, cut them into small pieces and she won't eat them. Today I gave her the entire apple and she ate 2. Go figure! I love the photo of Kailei and Meilin in the tree. I am one lucky Mama!

Labor Day Weekend

Another fun filled day at the lake even though it was a bit chilly. The water was very warm. Kailei swam out to the dock today for the very first time. Uncle Trevor took her the first time and Papa the next three times. She was so proud of herself as was I. We are excited because the lake will be open on the weekends through September. YEAH!!

3 Months

This beautiful baby girl was placed in my arms three months ago today. The once scared and shy baby is now enjoying life to the fullest every day! She brings smiles to all her meet her. She is funny, loving and yes stubborn at times. Meilin is on the move and LOVES dancing to music, her family and her dog Fenway! Thank you God for placing this child in my love and care!

School Days

Here is my new second grader. Kailei was so excited for her first day of second grade. She has the BEST teacher this year. She wasn't so thrilled about wearing a uniform again but it is so much easier for me in the morning. I don't even have to think about what she is going to wear. Meilin made it through a full day of daycare. She even slept a bit. Both girls were tired by 6:00. Meilin was in bed at 6:30 and Kailei at 7:00! I wasn't far behind them!
