Happy Halloween everyone!

I hope you all have fun today! Later this evening, we are going to a Fall Festival @ our church. Tomorrow I'll post pictures of Kenzie and the rest of the kids in their Halloween costumes.

Here are some new photos that my mom found on her camera. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, everyone! I know I'm kind of going crazy on the slideshow thing, but it's fun and a lot quicker than putting the photos on here. Anyway, these are the photos that I promised from last Thursday; our day at the park.

the rest of the promised pics

this slideshow is (part of) the collection of photos I promised!

(I am putting this on here after I realized that I didn't title my photos. All the rest of my slideshows have captions, though, so you'll just have to suffer.)

Ear Piercing!!!

Kenzie got her EARS PIERCED WEDNESDAY! We were on the way to church, and my mom's friend was with us, so we swung by Claire's and got her ears pierced. She cried for about a minute-and-a-half, though mostly because mom had to hold her still. Now she has two beautiful sparkling dots on each ear! Yesterday, Thursday, we went to the park. Kenzie had a blast playing on the swings, going down the slide (with me!), and finally fell asleep when she was swinging with me. I also want to ask everyone for prayers, because one of the families in our group lives in San Diego, and has recently had to evacuate because of the fires everywhere. She has two girls (twins!), and I just would like to ask prayer for their safety and their home. Kenzie's doing really good right now. So, I guess that's it. Talk to you all later!

Our Group!

Picture on the Wall

Sorry that I haven't been updating my blog!

Sorry that I haven't been updating my blog! Especially to the people in our group who are hoping for photos and everything. I have been so busy, and so tired. I'm also sorry because there's no pictures, but I couldn't access it in China. I'll post pics soon. Here are a few answers to your questions:
-Is she mobile yet? The answer is yes. she is crawling around like crazy.

-Has she adapted well? Very well. She sleeps in her crib, attends the church nursery, sits through baseball & soccer games. She's let lots of people hold her, and she loves the dogs. We have 6 of them.

-How was the at-home medical check? She'll always test positive on the skin test, but the chest X-Ray said no. She had a blood test, and they removed six tubes of blood, but everything was OK. The Doctor's only concern was that there wasn't enough iron, so she had to go back to give yet MORE BLOOD. But it's only because the Chinese formula doesn't contain it.

-Is she on American formula and/or bottles yet? Yes, she is on American formula. She still uses the Chinese bottles, but she uses American bottles and sometimes a sippy cup occasionally.

-Does she feed herself? Definitely.

-Does she get along with her brother and sister at home? Oh, yes! They're all good friends, and they barely give her space to breathe. There's always fights over who gets to hold her or play with her.

Anyway, that is a quick update. I will put some photos on here in a few minutes, but I think they're all from China, because we haven't taken that many of us at home. I will also be updating more, since I'm homeschooled, and this is part of my curiculim. I also hope to tell you where and where NOT to go in China sometime soon.
