First Friends

Just wanted to give a shout out to all the little people that are already a part of Molly's life...in order of exposure :)--


Mayah Singh-Barrett (3 wks OLDER): Miss Mayah comes to play with Molly with Sumin at church, so Mayah is Molly's first "in-person" friend! These two totally wear each other out, laughing and playing.

Being the younger one, Molly keeps an eye out for all the new things she can learn from the older and wiser, Mayah!


Nami Jae Song (3 wks YOUNGER): Miss Nami lives in Korea, but we Skype often and have virtual playdates, so she is actually Molly's first friend, and they will meet for the first time in person on Valentine's Day--yahoo!




The Sikes & Quesada kiddos - Janie (6), Will (4) and Benjamin (12 mos) Sikes along with Yago (2 1/2) and Isa (9 mos) Quesada represent our Tacoma play group. We try to get Molly down to play as much as possible...talk about built in older brothers and sisters! We've made it two times in 6 months...we'll do better this Spring, I know it!

Other buddies: Aiden Reeve-Parker (6) - expert Wii player who will show Molly how to bowl like a pro!

Katelynn (2), Evan & Aiden (1 mo.) FitzGerald - part of the MIPC baby explosion!

Ellie (4) - official leader of the "Baby Molly" fan club at the MIPC Preschool

Dollie Starr Mazal Rider (1 day old on 2/7!) - went to visit on her BIRTHday!

Far-away friends who we hope to meet soon!:
Benjamin Clarke (Warwick, England) - 2 mos OLDER
Elizabeth Santamaria (Tampa, Florida) - 6 weeks YOUNGER
Evie (2 mos YOUNGER), Camper & Carlisle (2) Land - (Arkadelphia, Arkansas)
Leah (7) and Zach (4) Peterson - (Knoxville, TN)
Naomi (5) and Sarah (3) Porter - (Los Angeles, CA)


And we're currently waiting for our first family reunion that will allow Molly to meet all her COUSINS who ALL live in California (boo!):
