Love Is All Around

Love Is All Around ...

Happy Belated Father's Day!

This was Bruce's first Father's Day... and he had a ball.

Day started out with him helping with 3 loads of laundry ;o)

Actually it started with a big kiss from Tamara, a card and his 1st Father's Day gift a rocking Hammock built for three ;o)

We then went to my brother's house for a BBQ Father's day celebration.

It took Tamara about an hour to warm up to everyone and then all she did was giggle, play and drag Mommy to the potty Pssst... yup that's what she says.

Below are a few pictures of the races which took place in the hallway.

As you can see Tamara is still wearing her travel bib? There was so much activity no one seemed to notice until we checked the pictures.

Pretty cute I think.

Cousins Nicky and Katie race with Tamara.
The finish line. As you can see the adults had just as much fun as the children.
Thank You Uncle Zoran, Auntie Olga, Cousins Brandon, Nicky and Katie for a fun time and all the wonderful gifts. Tamara had a lot of fun as we all did. She was so excited (over stimulated in the adoption world lingo that she didn't get to sleep until after 11 pm) So Mommy would like to especially thank you. lol. Yeah... one of "those" nights.

Below is a picture of Tamara at Kelly and Darren's house. What we planned on to be a quick trip turned into a much longer visit. Here Tamara is riding one of Brody's cars. She seems to think Boy Toys are fun too?

Brody 2 and Braydon 5 were perfect little gentlemen sharing their toys and showing much interest in our little girl. When it was time to go home Tamara of course wanted to stay and play. Braydon offered to watch her if we let her live there. So sweet ;o).

Not a chance kid. lol

So as you can see Tamara loves children and she is very social once she warms up. Our concern is the over stimulation which we then have to deal with once we return home. She seems to do best with smaller groups in a quieter setting. I'm sure that will change with time. After all she's only been home less then two weeks. Wow... that went fast!!!

Special Thanks to all those who sent Tamara Flowers, balloons, gifts and bonds. She enjoys her little deliveries.

And Mommy said the bonds will help pay for tuition. What's Tuition?
