The Dogs

Jake and Kata...waiting to be terrorized by their new sister!

Summer Heat...Stinky

So, coming back from Nova Scotia was a shock to the system...my goodness...THE HEAT! When we got home and saw the rumors that the Chinese adoption wait was starting to speed up the heat couldn't touch me...well, now that the rumors are taking a slight down turn, the heat is bearing down. UGG. Thank you air conditioning. Come on China! You can do it!

So, I decided that I'm going to spend these ridiculously hot months here in Arizona getting used to using the whole blog thing...so far, it really isn't too tough...I guess that means I am slowly becoming as computer savvy as a 12year old!

Shaun and I had a great time visiting family in Nova Scotia. It amazes me how beautiful the country and the people are. Thanks to all of our family for giving us such a great time and for letting me win once at 45s! :) Doesn't this picture look like it belongs in a magazine?

Ellie's room is all ready...can't wait to see her sleeping in her little crib and rocking on Wally, the pretty rocking horse that Grammy & Grampy gave her.

Journey To Ellie

Wow...here I am doing a blog...I'm not sure it's working...is it working??? It is working! So Shaun and I are working on this whole blog thingy...so new fangled for me, but it seems to be a great way to keep our family and friends up to date on the happenings in our life...and the biggest happening is our upcoming trip to China that will result in Shaun and I finally becoming parents! Hopefully I will have this internet thing down by the time we make the big trip and you all can feel like you're there with us!
