Yi Mei's Playroom
Gina came over to help me paint the playroom. Now Yi Mei has a bright room to express her creativity.

Little dresses and such
I have been up all night putting away Yi Mei's clothes. My friend Nancy's sister has donated the most beautiful sun dresses. I have been waiting all week to go through the boxes! I also picked up some wonderful clothing from Joy today. The clothes originally came from a Prairie Star family and it is all name brand clothing that I could never afford. All the jeans have these adorable embellishments and the leggings have matching tops. It purposefully waited until Saturday evening to unpack my treasures. As I put the clothing away, I dreamt of Yi Mei in all these fabulous outfits. She really is going to be a stylish girl- just like her mother.

A Very Special Day
It was a day I will never forget! Bette, Gina and Genene hosted an event to celebrate Yi Mei. It was the most perfect day. Genene planned some wonderful games. My favorites were guess the Chinese word and pin the bow on Hello Kitty.
Bette ordered these darling bite-size cupcakes in pink and lime green. Gina was had everything decorate so nicely, also in pink and lime green The girls had everyone bring a hair bow as an entry ticket. Yi Mei will have plenty of fun hair accessories.
Yi Mei received some very personal gifts such as children's books from Debby, a stuffed labrador pup and darling knit cap from Genene and a portrait sitting from Sue- gifts that I will always treasure. Amazingly, Jennifer managed to pick out the exact outfit that I have selected for my registry. Kim got Yi Mei a little lap top to help her learn English and Bette/Kathy got her the portable DVD player for our long trips to Chicago. I was thrilled that Wendi and Jenny were able to join us all the way from Topeka. Jenny and Wendi are hand designing a Jenny Lu piece of art for Yi Mei.
Yi Mei, you are so loved already!
