HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Asia-Faith is 3 years old today!
She slept in this morning, so we woke her up singing "Happy Birthday" in English and Chinese.
The boys helped her open up her presents, and then helped her play with them:O)
We actually had no rain today for a change, so we met up with Kim, Sheldon and Clarice at the park and had a little party. Asia-Faith had a blast, all the kids did, you could tell by dirty faces and clothes!!! LOL
Still no news about our final decree.....if anything this adoption is teaching me patience! LOL

1st Forever Family Day Anniversary!!!!
Woohoo!!!!
Today, 1 year ago, we brought our beautiful little Fairy Princess home.
It has been an amazing year, watching her grow, learning to speak, getting into squabbles with her brothers, becoming an independent little person, warm hugs, soft kisses, painting nails, buying pink, dancing, singing, drawing, having "tea", holding my hand, putting "pretties" in her hair, and hearing those precious words "I love you mommy"!
We are still waiting for our final decree, but we believe it will be here any day now....so we wait and pray (not so patiently though)! LOL

Enjoy the pics.....
This is how she likes to sleep - with her thumb in her mouth, and a hand on the zip of either her pillow or her pillow-case...
Wearing her brothers undies....don't quite know what was going on inside that little head of hers...maybe she was wanting to be Superman!

Chinese New Year Festivities, Yilan Sports Park, Taiwan
We took the kids to the sports park to celebrate the Lunar New Year.
The kids all had a sleep before, and we headed down the park at around 11pm - we wanted to be there for the countdown....
The park looked beautiful with all the trees decorated with lights and lanterns - very beautiful!
At midnight they had an awesome fireworks display, with coloured dancing water too - lovely!
They of course also had the dragon dancing and various other activites going on too.
When we were leaving we noticed there was a very long queue and we weren't sure what everyone was waiting in line for, then we found out hong bao were being handed out (envelopes with "lucky" money - in this case NT$10, but it was also a scratch and win card too - not to sure what you win - we have to get someone to translate the card for us), anyway, we were not too keen to stand in the queue that went on for ever... so Tiffany (our nephew's girlfriend who has been living here in Taiwan now for a few months), decided to befriend some friendly people in the front of the queue and when it came time to receive her hong bao - she asked for 4!!!! Only Tiffany could do this and get away with it....then again we thought that they probably were not going to say no to a blonde foreigner!!! LOL
It was really great to experience another Lunar New Year here in Taiwan.... Last New Year (February 18), we had just brought Asia-Faith home.....so next week is our 1 year Forever Family day:O)
Enjoy the pics.....
