Gotcha Day 2009 (Two Years Later)

Two years ago on May 14th we met Olivia for the first time. The whole trip is just a blur now and I can't remember life before getting Olivia. She has grown and changed so much in the last two years and has been nothing but a joy and wonderful addition to our family.
She is growing so fast and getting so smart. Every day she learns something new and teaches me something new too.
We just celebrated Gotcha Day with a nice Chinese dinner at home complete with tea in the tea set we bought in China right down to the fortune cookies.
We also had bought a cake because you have to have cake for a party! Olivia keeps asking me if this was her birthday and if she is now 3. It's hard to explain to her that she has about a month to go yet before we celebrate her 3rd birthday.
She did like her Gotcha Day presents though, just a coloring book, more sidewalk chalk and also a small jewelry box that we had bought in China to give to her.

Her new funny phrase......after I finish answering one of about 100 questions she has during the day she will say "Oh, ok, that makes sense". I don't know where she got that from but it sure is funny to hear.




Happy GOTCHA DAY 2009 Olivia!

Mother's Day, 2008
