Her new ghostly headband!

We received a surprise package from one of Lydia's buddies from China.

Lydia was in the store one day and saw a halloween card that she wanted to get for Shayla and we sent it to her along with some cute halloween stickers..well..a couple of weeks later Lydia received a package from Shayla! She was so happy! Lydia put Shayla's picture on the fridge and points to it all the time.

Thank you Shayla!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy halloween.

Here is Lydia taking my picture. By the way, I have pig-tails because Lydia had pig-tails..so we had some fun!

Cheeeeeeeeeessssseeee!

Lydia wanted a picture with Dadda too. She also wanted him to wear pig-tails so we had to explain that Dadda's don't wear pig-tails. :)

Having fun with lots of bling-bling!

Playing with Lydia

Lydia is showing off her new Hello Kitty slippers.

Here she is doing her Lydia puzzle.

Lydia is snuggling with Lola.

She got tired of standing so she pulled her Ohio State chair up to her Leap Frog and sat down and started singing away! Smart girl!

I leave you with this video of us playing blocks. She loves to build a tall tower and knock it down! She just thinks that is hilarious! Sorry..I took it at the wrong angle again....

New pictures of Lydia!

Lydia playing her drums

She wanted her China doll to be involved so......

Here..her China doll is singing her heart out! Lydia kept on telling her doll, "Good job..good job".

Getting into it.

"I love music!"

The next American Idol....

Lydia is checking out the new Babies-R-Us flyer. She loves looking at babies.

We recently had our LAST Post Placement visit required by China. Wow! It was such an encouraging visit. We can't believe it has been almost a year since we first held Lydia. What an amazing year it has been. Lydia has grown leaps and bounds. She is currently just shy over 3 feet tall, wearing a size 8 shoe (!!) and her developmental (both motor and language) skills are just blooming. Lydia is turning into such a sweet young lady. She is very nurturing. She is just SO perfect for our family.

God is amazing......
