Home from our visit trip...and I'm so in love!!!
I just can't get over how much I love our baby girl! She was exactly 5 weeks old when we got her and I felt like she had been in my arms forever! She is such a happy baby and we could tell that the foster mom adores her. (She cried when we took her and she had bought her a little tiny gold bracelet - so cute.) Giving her back was unbelievably hard, but I wouldn't trade our time with her for anything. She is growing so fast, at her 1 month check up she weighed in at 8 lbs 11 ozs! I am so happy to have been able to meet her and I can't wait to hold her again. Now the waiting is a million times harder, but I know that she is in good hands until we are allowed to bring her home. Thanks for letting me share my joy!

She is soo soo soo pretty! I am so glad you had a great time. I am looking forward to going down on a few weeks. I am counting the days but I don't want to count them when I get there because I don't want the time to ever end.
Hugs
