Ying-er 2006

We adopted our daughter Charlotte Xiao from China in 2006. ("ying-er" means baby in mandarin). This blog tells our story about building a family of 4, and the on-going joys/trials in our lives.

Christmas pics

'Cause I know that mostly you guys come for the photos rather than the stories.....here are some quick photos of the last week.
Stories will follow shortly.

Opening presents/having dinner Christmas Eve with Auntie Jacqui and Uncle Steve


Note: the dress up clothes were a BIG hit



Leaving a note and food for Santa before bed on Christmas Eve. You will notice that there are carrots for the reindeer, plus one in a ziploc for Rudolf (since he wasn't working that night). Also, Santa was instructed that he must have the apple (a healthy snack) BEFORE he was allowed to eat the almond tart. (Thus proving that some of what we say to our children about eating well actually does sink in. : )

Christmas morning..... a thank you note from Santa, and lots of toys!!


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
