It dawned on me I could post a blog all by myself while Corey is in Africa ("Af-uhkup" as Hannah says). It wasn't that hard to figure out, now if I can just get this dang "easy share" camera to load the pictures I can show you a little bit of what we've been doing here with Shishaw and Pawpaw! We love you, CoreyDaddy and can't wait to see you again!
Some notable things that are happening:
1. Shiloah is on the verge of cutting her two bottom teeth! I can see them in there and she has been quite miserable. We got her some magic teething tablets that are helping her out a lot.
2. Shiloah is also eating a lot of solid food now -- she doesn't like any of the fruits we have given her but enjoyed her carrots today. She eats her rice cereal like a champ and has adjusted quite nicely to a four hour feeding schedule, thankfully.
3. Hannah can now immitate a froggie, a flamingo, a hippo and a scary tiger. She gets the biggest kick out of scaring people with her tiger immitation. Last night when Pawpaw came home she almost laughed herself drunk because of how funny it was to scare him! It was the hardest I have ever seen her laugh, from deep inside her belly!
4. Shiloah is sitting up almost perfectly now, but topples over ever so often. She's tough, though.
5. Hannah has been a doctor, a princess, a kitty kat, and gotten to do so many fun things around the house with Shishaw. That's the first person she cares about in the morning. All she wants me for now is owies and bedtimes, diaper changes and a few other things. She loves her Shishaw!
I just realized that we have far more pictures of Hannah than Shiloah during our time here. Poor Shaft-shew! Always getting the shaft. Isn't she just the sweetest thing ever?
I love you, Corey, I can't wait for you to come home!

I am so grateful and comforted to know that my daughter and granddaughters are being so lovingly cared for by the 'other' grandparents while their own son is far away! Thank you both so very much. TT
Hannah...
Jenjen likes your pretty curlers in your hair!
Lolo...
Jenjen likes your drooley face. Good luck getting in those teethies! Ouch.
Thanks, Jen!
The first tooth finally made it's poky little appearance yesterday, the official 6 month birthday. It's the bottom left. Yay!
I've heard from Corey a few times, he's doing well and is on his way to a safari! They arrive in DC at 11 a.m. Wednesday morning. --danielle

thanks so much for putting these pictures up. i felt these pictures in my bones because i miss you guys so much. hannah looks like she is having so much fun. i can't wait to see her scare me with her tiger imitation. we saw a giraffe today and i let it eat out of my hand so jason could take a picture and hannah could see it. we'll be seeing lots of animals over the next couple days and then we are coming home.
shiloah looks like she has hair? i can't wait to see her and kiss her cheeks.
i love you so much and look forward to seeing you soon. keep praying for us. we are doing well and at the end, having a bit of time to reflect on our experiences.
peace in him

The girls are looking so cute! Sounds like everyone is having fun. Are you guys staying with Corey's family while he is away? We are missing you guys!!
Of course, both the girls are beautiful as always. The close-up pix of Shiloah are great shots. Keep 'em coming!
