Note to our friends we made in China

Normally, I use this blog to write about Mira or tell you about something going on in her life. I just wanted to take a minute to write a note to John, Dawn, and Sophiaaaaaaaaaa! We miss you guys very much and would love to hear from you. We have tried finding you through various ways and are having a hard time. James and I got your message on the blog. We would love to talk to you and catch up. Please please email us. Our home email address is foglesx5@earthlink.net. Unless you are John or Dawn or someone else we know and love, please ignore this email address or I will have to change it and I really don't want to do that! We have wanted to catch up with you guys for a very long time but as I am sure you realize, our lives have been very filled up lately. We love and miss you so email already!!!!! Mira misses her Sophiaaaaaaa too!

This is Mira's famous face! She loves scrunching her nose at people. It is absolutely the cutest thing ever (and she knows it)! 

Mira loves this rocking chair and will fight you for it. She loves grabbing one of her books, which are her favorite toys, and sitting in it and acting like she is reading. I knew she was brilliant! 

Isn't she beautiful? I love this picture, not just because of the Tarheel outfit but she looks so precious! 

Mommy gets to hold two babies! Mira got pretty jealous when I was holding Hannah so I ended up holding them both - quite a handful! 

Christmas with the family........... 

Let the games begin! Mira had no problems digging her hands and face into her own special cake. I think she had it in her ears and up her nose and all over her face by the time my mom finally couldn't take it anymore and took the cake away. Mira was not too happy about that! 

Mira is saying, "Bring on my CAKE!" 

Mira is being held by her Aunt and Godmother, Miriam (namesake). Notice that she still hasn't forgotten about that thumb! 

Mira and cousin Hannah don't get to see each other often but when they do, they really hit it off. Hannah is as tough as Mira, thank goodness because Mira is a brute! 

This is Mira and cousin Logan at her party. She loves other kids her size! 

Mira was overwhelmed by all the presents she got at her birthday but had a wonderful time ripping the paper off and hamming it up for everyone! 

This is Mira in her Birthday Princess hat. Boy, did she act like a princess that day. Isn't she the cutest thing you ever saw?!!! No, I am not biased! 

Happy Birthday to Mira Lin! Mira celebrated her first birthday on December 31st with lots of friends and family. She loved being the center of attention! 

Yes, the beautiful Christmas baby in red is Mira being held by cousin Tina at the Foge Christmas party. I can't believe she left that hat on! 

Sorry for the lapse in pictures

I am so sorry I have been so slack about updates on Mira Lin, or should I say Princess Mira. Here come the pictures guys.............
