Inside water fun

Jailin loves to play with water at the sink. She is definitely a water girl. She discovered that it is even more fun to wash her apple in water, too.

A nod to the olympics ( a little late)

Introducing.... Jailin the youngest ever to compete doing the lawn chair slide.

The Korean judge gave her a 10, but the American judge only gave her a 8. Since she is the only contestant, she won the gold!

She's calling her friends and family to tell them the good news!

Having fun with Mason

It's been a long time since Jailin has played with Mason, but she more than made up for it in this visit. They had a blast playing outside. They both loved playing with the big ball. I just love watching them play together.

A fun day at the arboretum

Jailin had the best time at the arboretum. It has a wonderful children's garden with so many things to do. They have an exhibit of giant bugs that Jailin really enjoyed. It was such a beautiful day and we are so thankful that it's finally summer.





Help! A giant ant is chasing me.

Getting Down and Dirty

Oh glorious mud! Do I need to say more?


Oh what fun.... wiping dirt on the house!



I think I need a change of pants.

Playing around outside

It's summer and Jailin is having so much fun playing outside. This is her first time playing with her whale sprinkler and she's not sure about it. She doesn't like it when she bends down and it sprays in her face, but she likes sticking her hands in the spray.

Hanging outside

It's finally starting to feel like spring here. The trees are all green and we're all busy gardening, including Jailin. She loves being outside. Jailin's shirt definitely sums up her personality, our little spicy Hunan girl!




Bellybutton fun!
