Today I received 5 new pictures of my little one. Two of them are just her, two are of her graduation day from pre-school with cap and gown and the whole class( pretty cute and what a great picture for her scrapbook). One picture had a close up of her in this big picture, and she is in the front row acting up, where the others are very serious. I am sooo very happy that she has a "not so serious" side to her. I can't post that one to protect the other kids in the picture, but it warmed my heart. I also received one at her foster parents house at the dinner table, with food to feed an army. This is always a reassuring thing to see for a momma who is adopting. We know of countless kids that are not getting enough food-- and we know the long term affects of that. My older daughter H still at times, keeps food in her cheeks for a longer period of time when she is really, really hungry. I have a pretty open pantry policy in my house, though they must always ask. --
I also received new measurements... How accurate they are, I dont know. In February, the measurements were pretty close to these..but it gives me an idea. Height: 112 cm ( about 44 inches) and
Weight: 17.8 kg - 39-41 pounds. I do think she will overtake H, as she weighs 54 pounds but is ALL muscle. Lean. Very different children....... I am a happy Mom!
I am so, so happy for you! Can't believe how close you are to traveling. I can't wait to meet her and welcome her to our group. Next year is a MUST for a beach trip, right?? :-)
