So much love from auntie Joyce!!! She would do anything for me! What more can I expect from an auntie... I love you too auntie Joyce!

Yes, Joyce does a lot for Emily and also for us. She was a great help and it meant a lot especially now that Emily's grandparents from Romania can't come. Unfortunately, Emily's grandpa just had lung surgery and now he is recovering. It wasn't easy but he seems to be doing well. We are all sorry for what happend so unexpectedly but wish him the best and that we could see them later here.

Thanksgiving

Mama is a little late with the Thanksgiving pictures. We had fun at my second cousin's Charlotte, and I loved playing with their puppy Angel.
Thank you for having us over! Here is a slideshow:

My First Birthday

I turned one year old today. Everybody is excited but I just don't understand why. Why is this day special? Why do I have to wear this crown? Why am I a Princess? Why this ribbon? Why this nice dress when I am just ready to crawl?... Why am I sooo special for my parents and many others?
Anyway, Grandma and Graandpa from Romania are very happy to see 'their princess' on her 1st birthday (in pictures at least). They call me 'Little Princess', as I am the only girl among their grandchildren.

Am implinit un anisor astazi. Toata lumea e entuziasmata, dar eu chiar nu inteleg de ce. De ce e aceasta zi speciala? De ce trebuie sa port aceasta coroana? De ce sunt printesa? De ce am insigna? De ce am aceasta rochie frumoasa cand eu am chef sa merg in 4 labe acum? De ce sunt eu asa de importanta pentru parintii mei si multi altii?
Bunicii din Romania ma numesc "Mica Printesa" pentru ca sunt singura fetita intre toti nepotii lor si se bucura sa ma vada 'printesa' acum cand am implinit un an (in poze deocamdata)

I had a wonderful day today - in the morning Marissa visited me and we had fun together, and in the afternoon Melisa took me at their house and I had fun again. Tiana is a very good baby sitter.

Which Martini shall I have?!?! Looks like she settled on water!! (this is what Aunty Melisa said)

Thank you Tiana for playing with me and giving me even your cell-phone... What a treat!!!

Curious Cat

Auntie Angie took this sweet photo of this cat watching how Emily's picture is coming out of the printer. Super!!!
