Celebrating MK today!  Three years ago, our baby girl was placed into our arms in Chongqing, China.  She has gone from one scared little baby to a very confident, loving, happy little girl.  She makes us all laugh, she is full of life and she LOVES to talk!  Have I mentioned how she has grown up in just a matter of days?  She has stepped up and is really taking her role as the big sister seriously.  She sees it as her soul purpose in life to protect and direct her little sister.....it is sweet now, we shall see how it continues :)  We made it a point to celebrate her today by having hot chocolate at a local, American owned coffee shop and by giving her extra loves and kisses.  And, we have told her stories of her Gotcha Day as well as the early stories of how she used to play hide and seek or peekaboo with us....she loves to hear the silly things she did as a baby.  She is amazing and we are so glad that we were chosen to be her family!

Man it looks like you guys are having an incredible trip!! I am so jealous ;) Oh and MK looks like a real BIG big sister up next to your new peanut-thanks for the pic. Looks like I may need to go shopping again for my new one.

Have a blast and soak up every minute.
