This week's Family FotoFun Friday Challenge from Double Happiness is Profiles.
Here are my favorites of Sarah's profile pictures.

Sarah Lu, 12 mo. Look at those cheeks! What a chunk-a-monk!

18 mo. What a sweetie!

24 mo. I love how she's sucking her thumb!

30 mo. At the hotel in Guangzhou.

31 mo. This picture was taken last Sunday, after church.


Today Sarah Lu went to the bank with Baba and was surprised with this gift, a sweet baby doll! It was all wrapped up specially for her! She hasn't let go of her dolly all day and just adores it!

On December 22, 2006, we finally landed in Chicago after what seemed like forever on the plane and after over two weeks in China and we were finally home with Sarah Lu. It is so hard to believe that just a month ago my two older sisters met Sarah for the first time and Sarah was just meeting our gou-gou's for the very first time! It's crazy how fast time goes!! After a month of being home, I think we are completely adjusted. Sarah at first in China only wanted me and not Mama and Baba, but now, it is hard to even see her because she adores her Mama and Baba so much! Now it seems like Sarah has always been a part of our family.
Now tonight on January 22, 2007, we went out to Pizza Hut to celebrate one month home. It was really fun and Sarah really liked it because she loves pizza! At home whenever her food is too hot we tell her "HOT" and tell to blow on it, well on the way I told Sarah we were going to Pizza Hut, and because she always mimics anything you say, she goes, "Pizza HOT!" It was SO cute and she just kept saying it over and over again, even once we were there waiting for our Pizza!
The last time I had Pizza Hut before tonight was in China, so it was a cool way to celebrate our one month home anniversary!

Double Happiness has a weekly photo contest, Family FotoFun Friday, this week's challenge is SHOES, so here is Sarah Lu's shoe collection!
And her "Gotcha Day" Shoes!
This is the pair of shoes that she was wearing when she came to us from the orphanage.

I'm having a tea party with my bear!

Would you like some more tea Mr. Bear?

Ok, here you go Mr. Bear!

My mommy came to my tea party! I LOVE my Mama!!

JieJie Chrissy came too!!

And so did my JieJie Yashi!

It was a REALLY fun tea party!!

Sarah got a little doctor set for kids and she was so excited when we showed her how to use it. She did it to me for a while, pretending to be my doctor, and then she decided that the gou-gou's(dogs) needed her help too, so then she was a vet. Hmmm....I wonder, a doctor or a veterinarian when she grows up?....You decide. Ok Yashi, I am your doctor now.

Gou-Gou Wesley needs a check-up too!

Wesley, I am listening to your heart now...

Now it's your turn!

And of course, we can't forget Gou-Gou Lilly, either...she needs a check-up too!

So, what do you think? A Doctor or a Vet?? :)

We have lots of snow here and Sarah Lu just adores it! At first she was unsure of what it was and what she was supposed to do in it, but after some convincing she started playing in the snow and had a great time!

The car commercial for Kia, is Sarah Lu's absolute favorite thing on tv, (it's to the song from Sound of Music) she'll run to the screen and start dancing, she loves saying, "Adieu", and loves the end, "Goodbye..." and falls onto the floor with her hands up in the air. When it's done she asks, "do some more?" And thanks to DVR we play it for her over and over.

Sarah Lu, so pretty in her church dress, finally tired from dancing to the Kia car commercial.

Here's a quick video of Sarah Lu saying her newest favorite phrase, "Gid-day." She has a stacking cup and is using it as a hat, she was watching "Pollyanna" and they said "Good-Day"once on there and she mimicked it and even put in her own Austrailian accent! I was so glad I had the camera, it was pretty adorable!

Gorgeous Sarah Lu in PIGTAILS!My JieJie's were SO happy when I finally decided to let them put piggy tails in my hair...(Even though they had to bribe me in order for me to let them)
Aren't I just adorable in these piggy tails?
Yashi and Me!Hmmm...Uh-oh!
I "accidentally" pulled one of my piggy tails out!The other one should match it...I'll pull it out too!
