and finally! the birthday girl

I was ecstatic to see an email from Ann at Red Thread come in this morning titled: "Li Ya Min's party pictures".

Thankfully, I was about to head to Andy's office so held off on looking at them until we were together. That was a long car ride.

Without further ado, I introduce to you THE birthday girl. (of course, these were taken almost 2 months ago)

Oh. My. Word. Precious is all I can think of.
Party dress and all!
Surrounded by her little buddies.
 And lots of beautiful fruit.
Her sweet arm is about as big as that banana she's eying.
This is her baba's favorite pic in the whole bunch.
She's not quite sure what to make of all the fuss.
And who's her little sidekick?
Perhaps a birthday boy himself? Two candles - one pink, one blue. Icing on both of their faces.
Make a wish, sweet one.
Your mama and baba are coming as fast as they can.
We love you more every single passing moment.

  4. She has such a serious look on her face sometimes. You can tell that she is really trying to figure things out. That's a sign of a smart and curious mind! Celebrating with you as each day you get closer and closer to getting her in your arms! Can't wait to meet her Sheryl!!!
