Hard to believe she turned 3...

seems like yesterday that we went on the pickup trip and met our special little girl. Here is a photo of her the day we left to go home.

to those who are waiting, IT WILL HAPPEN!! Keep your chin up (easier said then done, I know).

Here is one of her in her birthday outfit. There are numbers that you snap on the front of the sweater to indicate the child's age.

If anyone wants the URL for the outfit, pm me.

When we first started our adoption from Guatemala, I "thought" that they children were on the small side. Both of my girls are on the tall side for their ages and my 3 year old is off the charts and these are the American charts. So much for stereotyping!
