Today our little flower Georgia is 17 months old...you wouldn't know it by looking at her she is so tiny. She is still wearing 9-12 months clothing and is the shortest little person I know. However, judging by her development she might as well be three years old...this little person is... bigger than life!!!

Georgia is climbing...everything.
Georgia is mobile...look out world.

She loves chocolate...what is there not to love.

She likes books and knows how to use them she turns the pages and babbles...so cute.
She likes to play with crayons, scribbling and creating her little masterpieces.
She likes to play on Angel's little piano and is so proud to do so.

Georgia said her first English word...it is..."WOW"
Georgia said her first Greek word...it is "TOUTO"...meaning "THIS"
Georgia finally said "MAMA"...and mama cried.

She still doesn't like shoes and socks...now we have added boots to this list of items that she removes...twenty times a day.

Georgia sprouted 2 new teeth...she is getting ready to eat a rib steak!!!
Georgia's smile is getting more and more beautiful each day.

Georgia saw snow for the first time and loved it.

We put up our Christmas decorations and Georgia just adores all of it.
She keeps pointing to everything and saying "WOW"
Angel and her have been dancing around the house to "Jingle Bell Rock"

ANGEL'S HOMECOMING

My heart is beating so hard and my eyes are filled with tears as I write this post it all comes back to me...five years ago today we brought you home my little Angel

I remember the wheels of the plane touching down as we landed and I started to cry. Daddy looked at me and asked why I was crying now that we had landed...I said these words "BECAUSE NOW MY BABY GIRL IS HOME...HOME...HOME!!!" Yes my Angel, you were finally home and you were greeted by a huge crowd of family and friends at the airport.

It is such a funny story...I had told everyone that they should not overwhelm you and that you would most probably cry and not look at any one of them...Well, girl to my surprise you arrived like a movie star greeting your fans...full of smiles and giggles.

Looking at everyone as though you were saying "I'M HERE...I HAVE ARRIVED." You were smiling at them, clapping your hands and just being so,so cute.

Everyone of coarse thought that you were amazing and I was crazy for giving all those warnings. Your family and friends were so thrilled to meet you...they all followed us home.

Daddy was sure to put up the Christmas decoration before we left for china so you can see them upon your arrival.

When you came through the door of our house I cried again...this time so did Daddy. He took you around the house in his arms and he showed you all the rooms one by one and told you what everything was. You fell in love with your "spitaki" on that first night.

That night as we laid you down in your crib it was like a dream come true. We stared at you all night and thanked God over and over again for granting us the deepest desire of our hearts...YOU!!!

And then life went on as if you had always been with us and we enjoyed every moment and continue to do so. You my little flower are the love of my life and every moment that we share together is a blessing.

We love you Mom and Dad

Today our little flower is 16 months old and as of tomorrow has been with us 3 months.

Our trip to China to go and get her seems like it was all a dream and that she has always been part of our family. Although, there are many moments when I just stare at her and wonder how she got here...I guess this feeling is somewhat of a paradox.

I am so amazed by this little person that suddenly showed up in my life and I love her more and more each day.

FIVE YEARS : GOTCHA DAY : ANGEL

Five years ago today our life changed forever... Our little Angel became our daughter. It was by far the happiest moment of my life...I became Mommy to the most beautiful little flower in the world.

As I write this post my heart is beating just as fast as it did on the day we first saw your precious face my darling girl. You are our gift from God above and through you we have experienced God's love and Grace.

Angel, you are the best of the best and you bring us joy beyond words...we love you darling and we can only pray that we have served you well up until now and will continue to do so with the help of our Lord.

We are so proud that God chose us to be your parents and we humbly thank Him.

Happy 5th Anniversary my Love

Love you Now and Forever and Always

Mommy and Daddy

Halloween 2009

Halloween this year was really challenging...Trying to get the girls dressed up in time, finishing over 200 bags, decorating cookies, answering the door while Daddy took Angel out and trying to keep baby Georgia from seeing scary faces was all part of the...fun!!!


Angel and Dahlia had a blast as usual... they were so adorable as they gave out candies they yelled out to the street filled with kids "COME AND GET YOUR FREE CANDY"

If a kid in a scary costume came to the door they would scream and slam the door shut and wouldn't give them any candy. If a princess came they would give double the candy...it was so cute to watch!!!

They went up and down on sugar rushes as we let them fill up on as much as they wanted...the theory here is that they will get sick and not want any more... I think it worked?

Baby Georgia kept her costume on for hours which really surprised me...I thought she would fuss with it on yet she seemed to enjoyed it...I think I have another little Diva on my hands.

Needless to say fun was had by all and another Halloween has come and gone.
