Happy Gotcha Day





On August 22nd we celebrated our 2nd Gotcha Day. For those of you unfamiliar with the adoption term, it means the day we "got each other" or the day I got her. Some people call it "Forever Family Day" - the day they became a family forever. The only problem is that our Gotcha Day is always the first week of school. So that is why it is taking me almost 2 months to post the pictures. I do make a point of making our Gotcha Day special. We go out for Chinese food, invite friends to go with us, get a special cake, and a gift. She dresses in her Chinese outfit and off we go. I also like to watch the video of when I first held her in my arms.

Cousins






Aminah had a lot of fun with her Colorado cousins. Belle and Suzie were here the week before school started so we got to spend time with them and also with Justin and Ashli and Baby Dane. I'm sure at some point I will have to stop calling him Baby Dane. Along with Belle and Suzie came TT Im and Uncle Eric.
