This princess will try anything!

Jax continues to do well. I'm a tad concerned about his incision sites, they look super angry. I just pray that they don't get infected. True to Jax fashion, he hasn't needed much pain meds, we didn't even fill his loratab prescription. Have I ever said how much he amazes me?

The other day, the boys put the sprinkler under the tramp. Carter begged me to put Arina's swimsuit on and let her play with them. I was a little worried she wouldn't like the cold sprinkler water. But I should have known better!
This girl isn't afraid of anything! She had a ball! When it was time to come in, I had to drag her, kicking and screaming off the tramp.
I know she was very young when we rescued her, and she's probably already forgotten about life in an orphanage. But every time she does something new, I can't help but smile at how much better her life is, and how now she has every opportunity she deserves!






These videos are mostly for daddy. But do you think this girl cracks herself up or what.

    What a great idea with the water and the trampoline, we will have to try that one. Dariya is a fish we are sure she is going to love the water at home.

    It is so incredible . . . the gift you have given to her to be able to experience. Praying that Jax will continue to stay in good health and that the incisions will continue to heal.

    Love the pictures! Claire's been on a tramp before, but not with a sprinkler. We'll have to try that next time we are at Grandma's.
