GuatSquat 2008

We are off to Chicago this weekend! When we adopted Mia it was an added bonus the friendships that were created with other adopting families. We were all in Guatemala at the same time. The year we've added 3 new babies and one on the way. The group keeps getting bigger.

Mia has been telling us when she wakes up that she wants to go to the coffee shop and get a cow milk. When she starts ordering double shot lattes, I'll worry a little more. Here she is in her favorite spot.

Sherri and Jon Claude are in St. Louis

 

The Walton family lived across the hall from me in Cleveland many moons ago and we've stayed in touch through the years. They are the best! We don't see each other to talk very much but their friendship helped me a great deal through a transitional period in my life. It was great to see them. Sherri refused to let me take her picture (nothing new) so I did the best I could. We're hoping to see them again next weekend when we travel to Chicago.

Mia's First Birthday/Spa Party!

 

Mia's friend Emma has a birthday party where PJs were mandatory. She had a great time and came back with a cute little pedicure and manicure.
