Last week we had our 12 month post-placement visit with our social worker. Lily turned on the charm for her and tried to impress by covering up body parts with a blanket as she was asked to show where they were. Seriously, though, Lily was a riot and the social worker was very pleased with Lily's adjustment and her development. I'm glad to have that done and know that we are now done with all China requirements.
We had a very mellow weekend around here. With the bad weather, we didn't do much other than hang around the house and go to the gym. In the gym locker room I realized I left my shorts at home, so I couldn't even work out. So, I went to Costco instead. After reading Kim's post last week, I was disappointed to not find any Lily Pulitzer or Lacoste at this Costco.
Now, I am gearing up for a week by myself with the kids. Jeff is currently on his way to Germany. He just can't stay away! While I'm bummed that he's gone until Friday, I can't complain too much as up until now he's only been away two nights since we moved back to Michigan. The thing I'm dreading most, is getting all three kids out of the house by 7:50 every day to bring both boys to their respective schools. I am very lucky that Jeff usually does this, but this week I am even more the chauffeur than usual.
Now for some pictures from the week.
This is what Lily does when I tell her I want to take her picture
Another glamorous smile

I brought my camera to Chinese class on Friday. While most of our regular class was not there, Lily had a great time learning about bath and bed time words. I'm not sure how much of the Chinese stuck in her head, but Lily was SO into the entire activity.

So sorry that you did not find any goodies at your local Costco. The Lily is for girls (toddlers) and the Lacoste shorts were for women and men. I have heard that you need to keep looking and maybe we got them earlier here because it is warm (80's)? if you want me to look for something here, let me know. Love the photos of Lily at chinese class:)

Too cute! At least Lily sits still long enough so you can take a picture. Her hair is getting so long.
We had the nice Spring weather over the weekend and now we have to gloomy rainy weather. At least it isn't snow!
Good luck with the morning routine-- and we lose an hour too. Ick!
We had the chilly rainy weather too! Such a bummer after a couple of warm spring days. What fun photos! My girl always does a cheesy smile when I pull out the camera! Have a good week. Good luck with all the driving!
