I found Senja's blog about a week before I traveled to China and have been a keen follower ever since...secretly hoping for an invite to meet her and her girls!
We had a great afternoon, beating the scorching heat with some pool time, followed by some bubble action! We then moved inside, had some snacks, the kids played and we chatted about our adoption experiences and life with kids in general.
Senja's girls are strikingly beautiful with such "soulful" eyes! Hoping and looking forward to another gettogether...maybe at my place this time.
I second Senja's suggestion re a blogger convention up her in north country!
Jazz and Meg checking out the bubble maker.
Ava joins in on the "Bubble Action"!

Ava, so excited she has girls to play with!
Reno even gets in on the "Bubble Action"!
My attempt at getting three toddlers to hold hands, stand beside each other and all look at the camera!....in my dreams eh!
The "Not Red Couch" Picture!
Scrapbook Photo Album that Senja made for us! Beautiful, and thank you.

It's great that you were able to meet and the girls get to play! Gotta love the bubble maker.

They are all so cute together! Looks like you guys had a great time.
I second that play group idea, especially for when I come back :)
What a great day!
Green with envy, but so happy you 2 were able to meet (and LOVE that photo of Reno and the bubble on his face!!)
I'm just going to have to check Senja out! I've been hearing a lot about that gal.
The girls are all beauties.
Senja is a really great lady! How great that you guys were able to get your girls together.
aww..what a fun day! love the pics...looks like a blast!
It was fun afternoon. Thanks for shlepping yourselves across the 401 in traffic for us.
Ava is bound for greatness. That is confirmed in my mind.
How fun for all of you.....if you have a get together....I'm so there! So, so there! ;)
What a great day!
beautiful pics, looks like you had a great time.
How fun! It's just wonderful to see the girls together. HOpe you get to do it again soon.
Ahhh so your the friend Sennie speaks of. Lucky you for having her as a friend. She is truly one of a kind as I have learned over the past couple of years. I see she made you one of her "signature" albums. Treasure them forever as they were made carefully with love. She is a gem and a keeper.

I've enjoyed reading your blog this morning. We have a few things in common. My Qiansunya is in arm restraints from his cleft pallet repair at this time. He is from Hohhot and 'gotcha' was May 14. I am single and feel blessed to have made the cut off date to adopt. I love your picts!! Alice Atwood

I love Ava's bikini.
Canada does need a blog meeting... though I seem to be on the wrong end of it.
Long time no post! Hoping you both are okay?
Hi Liz I just tagged you. Miss your posts. I hope everything is going well!
Is everything ok? I haven't heard from you in a while..just checking.
Hi Liz,

Looks like the kids were
having such a great time!
Thanks for your warm words.
Where are the updates???? Everything ok?
Beautiful pics of beautiful girls.
What fun!
Nothing any better than a play date for our toddlers. Hows Ava doing? Has she had her surgery yet.
I seriously have to go back through the blogs to catch up on everyone.
It took 2 months but I'm back in blogland. See you in November. We'll soon have enough babes for a kids table :-)

Ava is beautiful. Looks like she had fun with her two new friends. I love the Chinese pictures you have on the right side of your blog.
