One small step







Well, it finally is happening. Anna started walking on her own yesterday. Granted she does crash and burn frequently, she has established an understanding of balance. I guess it took a little more than a month, because she was trying to walk the first week we were in China. Speaking of China, it has been fun watching the Olympics and all of the smalls bits that they do about the culture, food and interesting places to see. We saw a lot of the same stuff, but weren't as daring with the food, I cant tell you how many night's Kim awakens craving a Scorpion on a stick. Good times! How about that opening ceremony...very impressive!! Kim said the other day that she is ready to go back and adopt another girl. I am going to have to digest that for a while. I am leaning towards a Korean adoption. I think they fly the babies to JFK and hand them to you. Call me crazy but I need more time to help me forget how hard it was to fly around the world. Although Kim said that she may not take me anyway. We now know someone who does this for a hobby(Aunt Danae).
And speaking of going to a Foo Fighters concert this past weekend, it just so happens that AJ & I enjoyed the soothing sounds of Dave Grohl last Saturday. What an awesome show. If you haven't seen them, I recommend it highly. We didn't hit the mosh pit, but AJ did some body surfing, that was fun. By the way, if your ever trying to win something on the radio, talk to AJ. He has fine tuned the art of getting through and winning to a true science. We met a drunk girl who thought I was 30. I am sure the drinking had nothing to do with here ability to guess ages and weight. What a sweetheart. To top off the evening we sprinted about a mile to the car thru a very bad neighborhood and followed the Foo bus up the highway with a police escort.
As you can see from the pictures, Nina gets very sleepy when standing with a ball in her mouth and Anna loves to eat Great Grandma Bucci's spaghetti sauce, but then again, who doesn't.
Oh and before I forget, shout out to Joe, my biggest fan in the NewYork Metrolpitan area.

Way to go Anna...we knew it wouldn't take long. I can see how proud Mom is. Just one milestone of so many you get to experience with your daughter! I was so excited when I checked this morning to see more pictures. Taylor asked about Cha Bing the other day. I told her Anna is at home with her Mommy and Daddy and she said she wanted to come see her. I thought it was so cute. Hope all is well.
Ryan, Ginna & Taylor
