Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiink!!!!!!!!!
Yes it has FINALLY happened. Fifteen months after our referral......I am going to get my baby girl! In just a few days she will be in my arms, I just can't believe it. Thank you to everyone for all the support over the last year. I honestly could not have gotten through it without you guys! I will post some pics as soon as we get back! HUGE HUGE HUGE sigh of relief, it is almost over.
