Just a few pix from Disney World. Today we drove down to Orlando to meet Shell, Keith and their beautiful daughter Francesca. We travelled together to China and our girls are from the same SWI.
What a great experience it was to see them again and to see how much Francesca has grown. I'll post more later (exhausted from the long day).

Diego & Sparkles!

After much debate we settled on two names for the kittens.

My niece Isabella had originally named the black one Nori, but since it is a girl's name (after one of her favorite movie characters) she decided to name him Sparkles, because he is very spunky. We decided to name the gray one Diego (after one of Annalisa's favorite cartoon characters). It took us one week to decide on a name. I suggested Bao Bao (honey in Chinese), Mao (after Chairman Mao) but neither stuck.

So, here they are Sparkles and Diego!

Introducing...

Yesterday we went to the local animal shelter to adopt two kittens. One for Annalisa, one for Isabella (although Isabella's kitten will live at our house since she can't have one at hers for the time being).

After playing with different kittens they settled on these two tabbies. Unfortunately the adoption didn't go through and we had to leave empty handed.

But this morning we visited another local shelter and were able to bring home two kittens. One is gray with white paws, the other one is black with a white patch on his stomach.

The gray one is Annalisa's kitten but we don't have a name for him yet. The black one is Isabella's. She decided to name him Nori, after a character in one of her favorite Faeries movies.

Can you help us name the gray kitten? I'd like a word in Chinese but I'm at a loss.

Date with Mommy!

On Saturday Morning we had a Mommy and me date.

First we went to the MOSH museum to meet Angel and her mom.

We played in the Kids Space.

Got to pet some snakes!

Enjoyed looking at the beautiful fountain!
Climbed a tree!
Took a picture with downtown Jacksonville and the Main Street Bridge as the background!

Annalisa's favorite part, taking the taxi boat across the river!

Finally, we had lunch by the river. Notice the Main Street bridge going up behind Annalisa.

Adoption Video!

Here is the rest of the Adoption Video I have been working on. I broke it down in several pieces because it's long (in case you are watching this at work). I hope you enjoy!
