CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

Laurie and I are so happy to hear that you finally have your Sydney home with you. She is an absolute doll!!!! I love seeing more of the old timers getting their babies (or toddlers now). Try to forget all of the agony of waiting while you are enjoying her and getting to know her.
