Bingy had a wonderful Gotcha Day! Even though it was only her big brother Adam, Gary, and I home to celebrate, she loved it! We started out the day by making Dora cupcakes, first Bingy requested cupcakes with purple frosting, but then saw a thing on Nick Jr. on how to make Dora cupcakes, so we did! We didn't follow their intructions exactly, but they turned out cute just the same! Even though they looked a little like a cross between Dora and a sock monkey Bingy had so much fun making them! She is becoming quite the little pastry chef! I made my famous Asian pork roast and rice for dinner! Now, before you go and give me tons of credit, I must confess that all it is is a roast with Hoisen sauce dumped all over it a bag of baby carrots then braised in the oven! Bingy loved her gifts, too! She got a book of her Gotcha Day I made on Shutterfly, a doll we bought in Guangzhou and some crayons we bought in Changsha! She also got the Tinkerbell DVD and some Tinkerbell jammies! All in all it was a great Gotcha Day! These past two years have been nothing short of incredible, exhausting, amazing, and fun fun fun! Still can't believe she is ours!

chicago...
m&ms and my first train ride!
watching a little Dora to pass the time!
me and my sister Sarah!
me and my sister Rie!
big book!
view from Rie's apt!
Bingy and I went to Chicago to visit Marie and Sarah last week and had a blast! We took the train and Bingy loved it for the most part but we both got a little fidgety! Getting there took 6.5 hrs, but Amtrak turned coming home into an 8 hr ordeal! OIY! I am not sure we will take the train again, but we had fun and hope to go back soon! I will post more pics later!
