Just one more post in 2008!

The Sisters on the last day of 2008!  
Her Rubiness has decided that she would end the year with a bang!  She is sporting some very cute new Dora panties!!!!  Yes, huge strides made today by this little toddler.  Clearly when she decides to do something, she does it!   We are hoping that our days of buying size 4 diapers are over!!  Way to go Ruby Mei!
 

I had to post this photo of Cole!  He is currently in Jiangxi with his new Mommy and Aunt Stefanie!   It is such a blessing to follow their trip thus far!  Congratulations to the new parents, siblings and cousins!!!  Isn't he gorgeous?!

As I close the year, I continue to thank God for this gift of friendships made and families created by the gift of adoption!  I look forward to more new amazing stories of forever families in 2009!  Now wishing you all God's blessings in the New Year!

Cheers!

YAAAAAAA!! The Dora panties did it for us. Clara Beth is completely traianed and wears them all the time now!! She even stays dry at night. I am still amazed at how easy she was. Emanuiel helped a lot!!

Loved following your blog in 08 and can't wait to see what's in store for 09!!

Blessings,
Robin

Way to go Ruby Mei!!!! You are such a BIG GIRL!
That is so funny! Kate is dong the same thing...wearing underwear! Although today she has rebelled a bit but yesterday she even napped in them and woke up dry! Go figure! She does it when she wants...which is most days now.

Love this photo of the sisters. Hope you are having fun at the Lake.

Way to go Ruby Mei! I'm pretty envious of a life sans diapers! Addison is not interested in the big potty, so off to Target I go to stock up on Pampers! Gorgeous pics BTW!
