Ella Turns 2 - April 2008 (Into May)

Hi Ella, Daddy is a bit late in getting this update done, which would be less explainable had it not been for your refusal to smile for so many pictures!!!! But we'll give it our best shot and remember a special April that saw your 2nd birthday (and how you can now hold out two fingers - one on each hand) to tell everyone just how old you are. In addition to your birthday, we took a trip to the Dogwood Festival in Atlanta, held this year at Lenox Mall. You also took your first bicycle ride with Addison's dad Jay, and finished up with your early gymnastics training. Plus you always have fun with your brother. Here are some pictures.

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!


Happy 1st Birthday Ella
