(3) Our First Visit To LA (since the adoption)
After a four hour drive I arrived at my parent's
home on Thursday, September 20, 2001. We had
other kinfolk there celebrating our reception---
--before we ever got there! (ha,ha)

Ross, Peggy, and Dwayne with Maria and Eli
Peggy and Dwayne are the future God-parents for
Maria.
|
Callie, Cindi, and Roy with Eli
Cindi and Roy are going to be the God-parents
for Eli.

Callie and Eli having fun together!
Callie is learning like everyone else has that Eli
is a hand-full!!! When holding him you'd better
have a real, good grip because he can act like
a dive bomber at any time! (ha,ha)
|
Ross is showing Eli a new game!
Eli catches on fast at playing this game.
Repetitions are fast and furious as he doesn't know
when to stop! :) Of course, he is being motivated
by everyones laughter too! (ha,ha).
|
This picture of Maria was a favorite to many!
Would you believe it; I was trying to make her laugh! |
Maria Again, but
I was finally successful at making her laugh! This
was probably the sixth or seventh (quick) photo-
take of her!
|
Individual Fun!!!
Maria is learning how to have fun in the kitchen
sink! Water is becoming very familiar to her in
more ways than one! (ha,ha).
