Back from China // 2nd Shower For Ella
It's now April 1st, 2007 and we're officially back from China, having landed 3 weeks ago yesterday. Its been a great three weeks, culminating with yesterday's shower, thrown by our great Sycamore Trail neighbors (Jennifer, DeDe, Meg, Wendy, Chris etc...) and made extra special with a visit this weekend from Laura's best friend from Minnesota (Dawn along with our godson Preston) and another great friend Krista, who is responsible for Laura and I ever having the chance to meet in the first place.
Here are some pictures of yesterday's shower and from our fun weekend with Dawn, Preston and Krista.
Coming up soon, this month in April, we will have some minor surgery for Ella to remove her ear tag - minor in everything but cost (its self pay due to cosmetic nature - how many kids have plastic surgery at 11 mos - Ella I sure hope I get out of braces for this one - though I doubt that!). We're also having Ella's first birthday party and baptism at month end. Laura and her crafty friends (especially Krista) put together some slick invitations to the party on April 28th - I'll get those on here when I post later this month - thanks!

Welcome to Ella's Blog
Hi everyone, Welcome to Ella Sarah Lazar's first blog.
How it Started
Laura, Evan and I will be updating this blog as we prepare to travel to Yangchun, China. Yangchun is located approximately 160 miles southwest of Guangzhou, in Guangdong Province, China. We just received our match (referral) on Thursday January, 4th 2007 and aim to travel 4-8 weeks from this date (most likely 7-8 weeks as the Chinese New Year falls during this period).
Watching Ella Grow
Thanks for visiting - we had so much fun updating this blog during our trip to China, that we decided keep Ella's blog updated (once a month) to watch her (and Evan) grow up in front of our very eyes!
