16 Months

Auntie Trish gave Faith this dress for her 1st birthday, but she wasn't able to fit it until now. Cousin Super Derek got an Ironman action figure for his birthday. When he was staying at our house, Faith LOVED the toy.

The month is a blur as Alicia started summer graduate courses, and Ed had a busy ministry month. However, the child was able to spend quality time with her cousins, going to the library's storytime, go to the mall with Dad, play with the college kids, swim, and be a part of lots of other adventures in the month of July!

*on a side note, Baby Girl Leung should not be ignored. I'll be 4 months in a few days. Haven't posted pictures yet b/c I'm not showing yet. Please continue to pray for the health of the baby as I am still feeling contractions off and on and the placenta hasn't healed yet (at least not that I know of). Thanks!
