Summer Fun
We just had a really fun weekend and a nice Father's Day. Daniyar's friend, Jaterius, from preschool invited them to a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. They had a great time! We also went to King's Island water park on Sunday for a very hot Father's Day celebration. Collin played so hard he fell asleep on the King's Island train. They enjoyed their new play-doh ice cream and hamburger makers in their jammies.
I thought of fun things each of them have done lately. Daniyar's group in Kazakhstan watched music videos on their tv sometimes and the kids would dance. Sometimes they were hip-hop videos. I think he picked up some dance moves. Out of nowhere, he will turn around, stick out his "booty" and start slapping it while dancing! Kind of funny but also a head-turner. We tried to tell the long story at first but now we just say "we didn't teach him that move!" and redirect him. I'll try to get a picture some time.
Collin (preceded by Daniyar) has had the neighborhood tummy virus recently. We talked a lot about not drinking after each other so we wouldn't "give it" to each other. One day on the potty in mid poo, he said, I want to give this to you mommy or back to Daniyar because I don't want it any more! He thought someone else had to take it for him to get better. I also love the fact he still says "nusic" for music and "mapkin" for napkin, too cute!
We are headed off to Florida this weekend for a fun week with the family. Grandpa, and lots of aunts, uncles and cousins will be there. More pics when we get back!

Thank you for the responses!
I appreciate the responses I have had to the post about the little girl waiting. I am happy to share what I can to help this little girl. It is nice to know families are willing to adopt the toddler/preschooler age kids. They are so much fun. So many things are new to them still. I would be happy to talk to any of you via email/phone if you like. I want to protect her privacy of course but would also like to help her find a loving home. I just took a special interest in her and with the help of the Baby House have been trying to be her voice in the US.
Thanks again! Jacqueline
