My daughter is fabulous....




It's been crazy here....my flight was late.....I had to wait 45 min for my luggage. When I got to the hotel I had less than an hour before AP came. I was running around trying to unpack and get straightened up. Next thing I knew there was Jorge with Carolina and Anne Pearce. Can I just tell you that my baby squealed when she saw me and came right to me???? She has laughed and played! She can sit up for a few minutes and can roll over. She loves to put everything in her mouth (which is full of teeth). Little Missy decided it was time for her afternoon bottle and nap. She drank her bottle, smiled at me, and fell asleep. I am in heaven. I know that you all want pics. I haven't had time to take many so far, but here's what I've got. I PROMISE that as soon as she wakes up we will have a photo shoot!

How did the foster mother do handing AP over? She looks like she's been crying in the pictures. I'm so happy for you! I remember the moment our son was handed to us like it was yesterday. Enjoy every moment with your sweet baby. She is a wonderful gift from God!
