One Year as a Family!

One year ago today, Ryan joined our family. We will be celebrating our first Family Day, as we've decided to call it, with a trip to the zoo and dinner at our favorite Taiwanese restaurant. We were initially disappointed that our work schedules would not allow us to have this day-long celebration until next week, but it's actually worked out well since Ryan refused to take a nap today (he normally naps for 3 hours) and became increasingly crabby as the day went on. I was able to take him to have some portraits done earlier today before he had his big meltdown. (We're also going to have some of the three of us done soon.) Here are some of our favorite shots:














And our very favorites:










We can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we first met our beautiful son in Taichung. Here is a look back at July 9, 2007, and the following days in Taiwan:

























We love you, little guy!
