Another Chinese song

Sorry the lighting was so bad, but Lizzy didn't want to re do it. For non Chinese speakers, the words to the song is:

5 little monkeys swinging, laughing at the crocodile for being under the water
crocodile comes to get them, and eats one little monkey
4 little monkeys swinging, so on and so forth until there's
no little monkeys swinging.

For Chinese speakers, the indistinguishable line is "e-yu lai le" meaning, "crocodile coming"

Christmas...from last year

Sometimes family members don't know the exact size of clothes to buy for the kids. This outfit, for example was from Christmas last year, just in time for Christmas this year! :) I think this is from great Grandma - thank you great Grandma!(p.s. this was taken before the "bug", so she's still got some flesh on her cheeks)

My Rescue Hero

Stomach Flu

After a day of throwing up and high fever and several days of not eating, Lizzy has lost a layer of fat - can you see how skinny she is? My poor baby...

My little Indian

For Thanksgiving, Lizzy's class invited us (family) to join them for a little Thanksgiving feast and they had a presentation for us. Her class dressed up as little Indians and they quoted a psalm. The verse Lizzy was assigned to was, "give thanks to the lord of lords!" We practiced saying it loud and clear at home. She got a little stage fright but she said it eventually. My camera ran out of batteries, otherwise I would post pictures of the other class dressed as pilgrims. :)

All bundled up

Here are the children all bundled up for the winter. Don't they look warm and cozy? Believe me, it was cold out, and we played for an hour outside. I'm pretty sure Lizzy's lips were purple when we came back in.

Little Model

I came back from the States with some new clothes for Lizzy... (well, the hat is mine!)
