Katie models her new earrings.
She finally decided she was ready for pierced ears and as promised, she got them!
Chinese New Year 2005
Celebrating the Year of the Rooster
Sisters in their beautiful silks from China
Katie shawing off one of her many fans.
And yes, we are a multicultural family, Lizzie models a German Dirndl, from Tante Resi.
She loves this dress and spun around making the skirt flare.
Katie is learning Spanish in school and wants Mom to teach her German as well.
She also showed quite an interest in Mandarin this past summer
and we're hoping to find another class for her and Lizzie this year.
Children are such sponges at this age and absorb new languages with ease.
Lizzie's language skills are amazing. She is speaking in 5 word sentences already
and repeats anything and everything she hears!
Chuck E. Cheese Playdate, Feb 2005
When did my girls get so big? They look so much older in these two photos!
Valentine's Day2005
The day started with a playdate then home for cupcakes and family fun!
My little Monkeys! They can be so silly and so sweet!
February was a short but full month.
The girls really enjoyed celebrating Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day, as well as playdates with friends.
The month started off on a very sad note with the loss of a dear friend.
I tried to keep the girls busy but we spent a lot of time talking about some really big things.
I'm always amazed at just how much they understand, even at such young ages.
The bond between the two girls continues to get stronger every day and they truly are sisters in every way.
We are truly blessed to have them in our lives.
