Flowers, Glasses and Fingerprints

We went from snow a couple of weeks ago to very mild and sunny weather this week.  We couldn't wait to head to the local nursery to buy some flowers to color our world!










Liliah loves to do projects with Mama and that makes me a happy girl too.  We potted up some pinks and purples and strategically placed them in the backyard so we could see them from inside.     


The other big event, was Liliah got glasses on this day.  We discovered at her 4 year old check up that she is near-sighted in one eye.  She is now the proud owner and wearer of two pairs of glasses that she picked out. 


We then headed in to enjoy some noodles. Liliah decided to try out her noodle slurping skills

slurping, slurping . . .
Yeah, I did it!  Liliah, you are beautiful inside and out! The other BIG event was that we visited the USCIS this week and got our fingerprints taken.  Hopefully, in 4 weeks (or sooner) we will have the coveted I800-a in our hands.  That means our dossier can be sent to our agency and then on to China. We also have been given the gift of what Mei, Mei's name will be!
