It's too bad Michayla doesn't like the water.

HOP 'N POP MADNESS
When we got back from China last year, Michayla could barely stand up in her Hop 'N Pop.
Here she shows Anna the finer points of said Hop 'N Pop.
SOUND ADVICE
We made a quick trip back east, where Michayla put her little feet into the Long Island Sound for the first time.
A FULL DAY
We're so behind in our blogging. Sorry.
In June we attended an FCC (Familes with Children from China) picnic. Michayla was just starting to get her walking legs. You can see the pure joy in her face. She also crawled through her first tunnel (good if she ever ever needs to infiltrate an office via an air duct), and did a little swinging.
Phew!

ONE YEAR AGO
On this date a year ago, we flew to China to adopt Michayla. We've been revisiting our anxiety and excitement through Nicki's diary. It's been an amazing first year.

BUMS
On May 21st Michayala went to her first Dodgers game, had her first Dodger Dog, and even yelled,"Hey Ump, get some glasses!" It was the Dodgers and the Phillies. We think the Phillies brought the east coast weather with them. Hot and humid. 
GRACE LIQI
On May 20th we celebrated Grace Liqi's 2nd birthday. It seems like only yesterday that our friends Murph and Reynolds were blazing the China trail for us. 
If there's one person who doesn't know their way around an icing gun it's Murph. So "Happpy 2nd Birthday Grace Liqi" became simply "Yay." Our thoughts exactly. 
And we couldn't forget Anna Fratto, who was still in China at the time being united with her parents.
LA JOLLA
Nicki had a LORT conference in La Jolla, so Mark and Michayla tagged along. We had a great time. Mark and Michayla went to the beach to see the baby seals. Cutie cutie baby seals.
MOTHER'S DAY
We celebrated Nicki's first Mother's Day in downtown LA at Kendall's Brasserie, a lovely French restaurant. Michayla gave her mom some cards that made Nicki cry and she also gave her mom a lovely Irish necklace.

CHINESE BIGWIGS
We were invited to a dinner to welcome the Chinese Government agency that actually matches up the babies with the parents. It was thrown by Hemlata, the woman who runs Bal Jagat, the agency that did our Home Study.
