Apple Sauce

Not a whole lot to say, but wanted to get some stuff up.

I am amazed by how quickly this kid is growing up.  Does having a child actually speed up time?  Seven months ago we brought home this cute little girl who couldn't walk and knew a couple of words of English (a few Chinese as well).  Now we have a running terror, but still VERY cute, who repeats everything we say.  I couldn't even begin to count her vocabulary these days.  Every day it seems there is something new that makes me wonder "where did she get that from?"

Of course, it isn't always perfect.  Her mouth is, according to her, her "mouse."  A lot of things end in Y.  When she walks backwards she is "backy."  She also knows that when I get up in the morning I "takey shower."

Anyway, there is your update for now.  Enjoy the stuff below and witness the reason for the title of this post.

Oh yeah, I think I attended my first tea party today.  Natalie likes lots of sugar in her imaginary tea.  I think that coupled with her love for grits and watermelon means she was destined to be a southern girl.

She found Ma Ma's lip gloss
