Fun at LifeTime Fitness

We had a play date today at LifeTime Fitness with Mary and Holden. Alex and Holden had a blast swimming, going down the slides, and climbing the rock wall. Malia enjoyed swimming too and took a little nap on Daddy's shoulder.

Malia's Re-Adoption in Texas

We took Malia to the Travis County Court House yesterday to her re-adoption. That's when Texas officially recognizes the adoption so Malia can get a US birth certificate. The birth certificate will have China as her place of birth, but having that certificate makes other things a whole lot easier down the road. Yay Malia!!

Malia's lip surgery is coming up...September 9.

First Day of First Grade

Alex was very excited about starting first grade! Malia, Marc & Dianne walked with him all the way to his classroom. It's going to be a wonderful school year.

Summer Time Blues

This morning, Malia had to go to school and Alex had camp. Malia did not want us to leave her, but she was okay 5 minutes later. Alex did not want to go to camp (his last day), so an emergency call to Grandma Amy saved the day. Alex was delighted to have a change in plans and told Grandma that he already had his snack, lunch, and bathing suit packed, so she didn't have to worry about a thing. =)

I'm attaching a picture of Alex swinging with Malia in the backyard after we played with the water hose misters yesterday.
