Just a Girl and her Toys

Victoria definitely has her favorite things to play with.

She spots something fascinating in the distance....


Oh joy! An acorn!







Hmmmm....I have a feeling there is something interesting behind me!


Oh yeah! Party time!




Life is good!


(Do these pictures look better than usual? My husband gave me a fabulous new lens for my camera! Now I can attempt to be a good photographer!)

  3. I'm pretty sure that is not the same child you brought home 5 months ago. Did someone come into your house and switch children on you? She is such a cutie and it sounds like her determination is showing through more and more each day. Keep up the great work Mom!!

  5. I am simply amazed by this precious little girl. I have been following your blog since a bit before you traveled for the 2 and I cried for this one when I saw the first pictures of her, and that she had a family. She is simply amazing, as are you - her mama!
