310 Days

Today is a very important day in our household. It marks 311 days since Alexia joined our family. Which is one day more than she was in the orphanage. We can officially say that we are the people she has known is the longest! She is so much a part of our lives that we cannot imagine life without her nor can we remember life before her. She is an utter joy!

Last night, Mommy and Cara-Li had a date with Mortimer's Mom and Dumpling. WEll, actually, the girls had a date and the moms were the chaperones. We went to see Slava's Snowshow. It is basically a clown show and what a show it was! We were engulfed by a giant web (actually a huge piece of cotton, but I mean HUGE!), we endured yet another huge snowstorm or two (like we didn't have enought this past winter), we experienced a flurry of bubbles and we were harrassed by clowns during intermission. The show was great and the music was even better. And at the end they dropped and released at least 10 massive, larger than life balls with many smaller ones for the audience to toss and hit around. Needless to say, the girls had themselves a blast!
