JanetDGood Saturday morning all!
I'm all set for a busy day of shopping to get ready for travel to China :-) I still don't know if I will be traveling before or after the Christmas holidays -- but I will still need diapers, formula, bottles, etc. regardless. Unfortunately, even though Olivia and Ruth have very close birthdays -- Olivia is 11/22/98 and Ruth is 12/26/00, their sizes are very differnt. At the one-year point for Olivia she was in some 12, but mostly 18-month size clothes. Her height was greatly effected by her CAH! When she came home from China at 7-months her height was in the 97% and her weight was in the 25%. For Ruth, at the 8-month mark her weight is in the 10% and height in the 25%. Projecting it out to 12-months, she will only be in 9 to 12 month size clothes. Just more fun shopping.
Anyway, pictures of the delightful Ruth Ni (or NiNi) have now been posted for all to enjoy and admire. (Sorry about the "new mom" talk, but I'm SO EXCITED). Our family page is at

Have a great weekend!
