Adah,

Such a big girl now.

Ever watchful with those big violet eyes.

Chattering each new word.

Racing on chubby legs to keep up with brothers and sister.
Dollies, lip gloss, ponies and nail polish.

Your sweet spirit is a delight.

Still our lovely addition.

Our treasure.

Our baby.

We love you.
Yes. We do.

London continued

We actually saw quite a lot of London,
considering we were only there a total of 12 hours between flights.

Photo ops were limited as there were nearly 20 of us, on foot, rushing to see all there was to see. And hoards of other people to navigate.

If I had to describe London in one word it would probably be something like "frantic" or "frenzied". Everyone is in a rush to get somewhere. And they're not happy. In the least. It was very depressing and I was very disappointed because I loved this place so much! The history, the architecture, the countryside, the weather and the toilet paper. Perfect little individual cushy tissues.

Truly breathtaking...

Big Ben

The Tallest Ferris Wheel in the western hemisphere

London is so incredibly beautiful.
I was awestruck.
You cannot imagine the details.

It would be so much fun to go see the countryside someday...

Buckingham Palace

nothing ruins a face quite like a bad nose job....

Many more to come...

Happy Easter
