I just have to show you pictures

Hannah Sumin turned one on May 11, her are a couple of her photos we had taken. I want to spend all of my time with her. For those of you waiting, it's worth it. My dh and I are deciding whether to go back for number 2. Something we never even thought about before getting her. Hang in there, it's worth the wait.

I, too, really appreciated these adorable photos of little Hannah--I agree with Stephanie, her little chin is so cute! Thanks for sharing and making our wait a little more tolerable!

How old was she when you picked her up and from what province is she (sorry if that stuff is in your signature, I can't see that as I'm typing!).

Enjoy your family!

She's just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your encouragement. The wait can be excruciating, but I hope I will forget all about it when the day finally comes.
