New Pictures of Karli

We received new pictures of Karli. These were taken yesterday. She looks so cute.

Wow!  Can you believe August 2 marked 1 whole year since we got Kenzie's referral? I can't. Time passes so much faster with Kenzie here.  I don't know why.  I can always play with her except for she's napping. I hate it when she naps. I have to be really quiet, and it's no fun. 

So, remember my last update when I said my mom was going alone to get Karli?  Well I was wrong.  My dad said if I could earn $1,500 in 4 or 5 months I could go too! So far it's only been about 2 and a half months and I've earned $1030.33 already.  I am earning the money by dog sitting other people's dogs.  I am also weaving pot holders to sell.

When I'm in China, I want to go on the Great Wall.  I am going to use some of the money I've earned for souveniers.  I am going to try to earn $500 extra dollars in addition to the $1,500, so I can buy a camera to take on my trip.  I am excited that my mom and I will be the first ones from our family to see Karli.  I can't wait to ride an airplane.  I've ridden one before, but I was a toddler, so I don't remember.  The ride will probably be boring on the way there.  On the way back, I'll have to help with Karli, so I'll be busy.

Last night my grandma spent the night with us.  There was a tropical storm heading for Houston, and my grandma lives in a trailer.  She did not want to stay at her trailer in case the winds were too strong.  However, the only thing we got was a lot of rain.

Here are some recent pictures of my family at Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas.
