This past weekend was a lot of fun (sorry this took so long to post - God decided I should experience morning sickness - in some form or fashion, to celebrate Dreyden - so now is the first time I was able to get to the computer :0)
First we spent the day shopping - Wow! Lots of fun stuff for Dreyden and of course some for Ahly too (I have quite a shopper on my hands)- I may have to post some pictures (just for Kristie - haha) We then went to "Build a Bear" for the first time. Ahly got to make herself a little puppy dog named - what else - SNOOPY! Then she also got to make something for her baby brother. She picked out the softest teddy bear. Which is absolutely adorable. I promise to post a picture of the bear for Dreyden and Ahly soon.
Then we met up with another ISRC family at an Indian Restaurant. Anya and her Mom and Dad (Nancy and Peter) live only 1 1/2 hours away and have a great shopping mall (compared to where we are). They brought their daughter home in December of last year. We met them just about a year ago while they were waiting to bring Anya Rashi home. It was great to be able to tell them our story and hopefully bring some peace into their lives while they waited. Here are some pictures from the visit.
Yes! Post some pics of your loot! :) Ahly and Anya Rashi are just too cute together. How fun that you got to meet up! I can't believe how Ahly is growing into such a little lady! She doesn't have any baby look left to her. She is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow!! Ahly is beautiful..don't they grow fast???
ReplyDeleteI think it's wonderful you spent some time with Nancy and Peter. I have never met her, but I know her through blogging and email. . . Now I can't wait to go and visit some friends who have adopted from India as well--they live about 3 hours away....
LOVE THE BEAR!!
