Sunday was FUNday

After church Sunday we went to Chuck E Cheese with some friends. They are moving and this has my girls very upset. They had a great time together, they devoured a large cheese pizza, played games, and decided to combine all their tickets and split them 4 ways. We are really sorry to see this family leave but will keep in touch.
As the girls played together Jackson spent the entire time on 1 ride....the Barney car. He would just yell for me to come over and give him more tokens to make it go. I've never seen anything like it.

One of my fave pics

Here is Jackson....near the end of the day...this boy does everything with GUSTO! He plays hard and crashes hard. I was a bit surprised by the half eaten cookie, he usually will finish food. The Moms at Liann's school enjoy him in the morning..he practically BURSTS out of the car yelling "HI!" to everyone he sees.

Fall has come and gone....

And I have yet to update the blog... what a terrible person! The kids started school....even Jackson goes 1 morning a week. I can honestly say all 3 are enjoying school, even Liann (and I had my concerns). We are fortunate that all 3 of our children attend private school. I wasn't sure what I was going to do with Courtney until the week before school started but God stepped in and she goes to a VERY nice school. She is learing so much and even started having spelling tests 2 weeks ago.

Jackson continues with speech therapy and my battle with the insurance company (they weren't covering his s/t after the age of 3) is about over. I got a call from the insurance company stating they had reviewed their policy (after a call on our behalf from the attorney general) and were now going to cover it *whew*
In the meantime we are using sign language and he is sommunicating very well. I plan on enrolling him in PreK in the fall.

Liann is still our sensitive one... she is becoming proud of her "chinese-ness" and is asking lots of questions. She enjoys looking back through her "baby" things but feels sad for her ayi at the orphnage.

For Halloween Jackson was a very dashing Captain Hook, Liann a dinosaur (of course) and Courtney was a pilgrim (go figure). I'll post the photos soon....

Now we are preparing for Thanksgiving (w/out mommom & poppop)and then on to Christmas. We are very excited about Jackson's first Christmas home.
More to come....
