happy

Recently, we had some deliveries.



Addressed to Tallula.



I held onto them til I could get my act together and get some pictures of her opening them.



And finally, I did just that.



I took her out on the porch and put her goodies in front of her.



And Tallula was all over it.



No instructions necessary.



She was so focused.



So determined.



And so very, very happy.



To my sweet friends who have blessed our girl with some goodies, thank you.



From all of us.

    There’s nothing like getting a ‘package’ in the mail or by special delivery truck…

    Her serious expression just slays me!!! Too dang cute. I think I might be dreaming up situations to trick her into doing it if I lived in your house.

    She is sooo cute! And, quite capable already, as well! Just wondering about her health issues. Were they taken care of in China, or, are there still some things that have to be done? I’m thinking I read that she had the same issues that Esther had? Or, am I dreaming it?

    Where in the world do you get those Asian doll house people? I have looked everywhere for those! I have even called Mattel and complained last year….I seriously need those….
