Finally, An Update!!





















Well. Sorry it has been sooooo very long since the last update. Life has been busy, and I just simply did not take the time to update everything. However, I thought that the pics of Marina playing in our latest snowstorm were just too cute to pass on.
Marina is now 15 months old. She is running everywhere. She is signing quite a bit and is learning words to go along with the signs. She has a decent vocabulary: Mom, Dadee, Pop, Baba, Ball, Balloon, Please, Down, Up, Lala (for Elmo), moo, ABC's, and a few others. The newest word is Thank you. She has also started to link words together, like: please, up and then thank you. She has about 12 teeth and they just seem to pop in every few days. Her hair is getting really long and I can't wait to put it in different styles for the summer. :-)
We took her outside twice during the snow. She loves going out, oh that is another one of her words. :-) She cries when we bring her in. She discovered how to make snow angels all on her own, as you can tell from the one picture. She has also developed an "ohhhh" face, and you can kind of see it on one of the pics. She had fun toddling around in that big, puffy snow suit.
Well, I have got to run. I have school work to do and housework, and lots of other stuff, and you know a nap only lasts so long......
lots of love,
Pam, Lonnie, and Marina

Hey guys...we too do not get to see you as often as we would like. We can't believe how big "M" is getting. We love to see her growing each time we do get to see her. I'm sure Dadee was enjoying the snow as much as M if not more! This blog is a wonderful way to keep everyone current. Take Care!

Love...Jason, Stacie, Kaylee Jo & Lynsie Jean!

Hi -

We wanted to let you know that my friend Stacy and I are starting a orphan ministry for the children in Kaz. Our first big project is a Kaz Cookbook. We are asking all Kaz adoptive families to donate 1-3 of their favorite family recipes to be published with all the proceeds going to charity. If you would like to donate a recipe and for more information please visit www.hopeforkazakhorphans.blogspot.com.

We hope to hear from you.

Thanks,
