Tina

We just found out that Tina has cancer.  She is going to die.  She seems fine right now, she has a huge tumor on her back.  I don't want her to be in pain or get scared so Mama and Dad say we'll wait for her to tell us it's time to go and we'll take her back to the vets to die.  Yesterday we packed up to go camping and we think this might be Tina's last camping trip.  I love her so much, I'm not ready for her to go.  We don't think Dixie will like being alone, it's just so sad. 

I'm proud of my sister Fei today because she is riding her bike without training wheels.  On gravel, cement, dirt and grass.  Yehaw!  Great job Fei Fei.

Lucky's adventure

On Tuesday Fei and I went into our pool.  We had a blast!  After we got dressed and went into town with Dad to run errands.  First we went to pick up criminal checks for our adoption agency then we went to the hairdressers to see if Dad could get his hair cut.  They said yes but not for a few minutes, so Dad took us to get sandwiches at Cherry's and we took them back to eat while he got his long hair cut all off.  I miss Daddy's long hair but he still looks nice.  Lucky was with us while we ate our lunch but when we were done I forgot him there.  I didn't realize he was missing until bed time.  It was awful.  I was so scared for him and sad for me.  I cried a little.  Mama made me retrace my steps until I was fairly sure where he was.  Then Dad drove us all down town at 10:00pm to look in the windows at the hairdressers.  It was dark and Mama had to use a flashlight but we saw him there and he was glad that we came to find him.  He was locked in of course so he had to spend the night there.  Then in the morning we hopped in the car and picked him up.  I was so relieved that he was ok.  He told me that he was scared at first but then when he got to know the ladies he wasn't that scared anymore.  Then we went to Tim Hortons so that Lucky could have a treat.  I've promised Mama that Lucky will stay in the car from now on. 

Yesterday Gramma picked us up and we went shopping in town.  We got to pick out our own clothes for school.  I got three outfits from two stores.  I love shopping with Gramma. 

Today Gramma and Poppa Nelson came for a visit.  Fei and I got to go in the pool while they visited with Dad and they all watched us in the pool. 

Right now families are starting to get referrals, we're going to see our baby really soon.  Hopefully tomorrow.  Mama says it might not be until next week.  I can not wait to see Anlin.  Mom reminds me that the baby's name might not be Anlin but probably. 

It's getting close

We were just reading on Rumor Queen and it looks like it's getting close to us finding out who our baby is!!
I'd really like to see our baby's face, I can't wait.

I finally lost that weird looking front tooth!  That you have all been asking about.  One more big front tooth to go.  I talk with a lisp now, and it sounds funny. 

I can't believe I'm done with grade 2 and I'm in grade 3.  Since school has been out we've been doing a lot of camping with our friends.  I love camping.  This past weekend we went to Gordon Bay for Dad's 44th Birthday.  We swam in the lake all day Saturday and Sunday, it was awesome.  We went in little blow up boats to a little island and then Fei, Hanna and I swam back.  Learning to use oars was fun. 

We took our rats on their first camping trip.  I think they had fun. 

Gramma took us shopping with our cousins Avery and Ty and we all got something new.  I got a new DS game, Toy Story 3, which is so awesome.  I love it.  We also saw the movie and it was great.

Next time I blog, we might know about the baby!!  Finally!!  After all these years!!  I've been waiting for my baby sister since I was 3.
