Virginie

She is one of the other 4 girls who have been sent a quilt from Rita. Her parents Béatrice and Olivier have emailed us from Belgium. So glad to hear from them. We have already mentioned Lola from France and the fourth girl's name is Barbara from Moscow. Her birthday is actually on the 7th. But Rita figured that was close enough plus it turns out that University of Moscow was opened on May 7th of 1755. So that was kind of cool. Well we will post pictures of the other girls if we get some. Hope to hear more from the other families. Thanks for stopping by.

My Welcome To You From You Tube

A new neighbor

My friend Lucy next door has a new baby brother. My big sister, nanna, as I call her, thinks it is not fair. She has been praying for a little boy for us. She told mommy that Lucy's mom should give us the boy because she has been praying for a little boy and doesn't think it is fair that our neighbors got him. Well anyways. His name is Simon and here is a picture of my new neighbor.

Sorry it has been so long...

But daddy has been too busy at work to update and we are hoping to get broadband at home soon so it will be easier to update. I am starting to learn how the computer on my own though. I know that there is a board with bunch of button I bang on. Then there is this other little thing about the size of daddy's hand that I move and round and click. That is about as much as I have figured out for now. Sissy has figured out how to turn on her own comptuer and play games on hers. I will catch up before too long. Anyway, daddy took some pictures of me in the backyard awhile ago and some of me and big sister as well. Hope you enjoy them for as much time as it took daddy to take them.

More pics of me

Ok, Da Da is not sure where the pics of my birthday are. But here are some more really cute ones of me from some other days since I turned one.

3 days until my birthday

My birthday is coming up in 3 days. I have received a really neat birthday card from Rita and mom and dad are pretty sure they were able to translate most of it properly. Rita is still waiting to hear back from a couple of families to find the other 2 girls who share my birthday who will get a special quilt like mine. Daddy said he realized recently that he has not posted any pictures of me an my quilt. Hopefully he will do that and get some good pictures of my one year birthday party posted. In the mean time here are some pictures of me Easter Egg hunting.

And Me Just Smiling!!!

No more therapy

No more terrible stretches for me. Mommy and Daddy took me to the chiropractor and it turns out my second piece of my spine was out of place. They put it back and released pressure from the bottom of my spine. No more head leaning. I am feeling much better and no longer have to get my head all pushed around. Daddy says he is not sure why so many people do not like chiropractors. He was kind of leary of them at first too. But the therapist said it would be a year of stretching to fix my neck, and the chiropractor seems to have fixed in just two weeks. A nice lady in our church, Dee, who works at her brother's practice where I went didn't seem surprised. Daddy seems to think that even though it seems everyday to Dee, he thinks it is a miracle and is very happy that I am doing better.

Okay, well daddy has had some problems getting pictures uploaded but promises to get the picture of the quilt up as soon as he can. Oh also my friend and neighbor, Lucy, is doing great too.

Torticollis

Wow Daddy is really taking his time on getting those pictures of the quilt. So in the mean time I thought I would tell you about my neck. From what I understand, in a very limited 4 month old capacity, is that Torticollis is basically a shortened neck muscle. Thus my neck leans to my right shoulder all the time. Mommy and Daddy and my babysitter thus have to exercise my neck at every diaper change during the day. I don't like it very much, but they tell me it is for my own good. Just like broccoli (whatever that is) will be too?

The Many Faces of Me

Okay Daddy is a little slow on getting the pictures taken of the quilt. So in the mean time here are some pictures he managed to take of me.

Daddy's Dream

Daddy's dream is that some day we will be able to get a hold of Lola's family and the other 2 families and all be able to post pictures on the same blog so all of the families can watch as other girls with the same birthday from around the world grow up. Daddy's seems to think that would be pretty cool.

Rita's quilt has arrived by the way and daddy says he will post some pictures of it soon.
