Three Weeks home . . Life is Awesome!!!
I can't even believe how much Gabrielle took to home life!
What a trooper! (After a bout of diahrea on the plane ride and about a week after) She is doing awesome!!! I won't say the same about my clothing from the return trip . . . Ooopps . . .  This is my favorite photo of my 4, to be 5 next week Guat son Logan and little baby Gaby, 11 months old yesterday!  Hugs to all . . . Cindy

yeah...if they can overcome the bout of "Adoption Diahrea"(seems like everyone coming home in the last 3 weeks has had it
 ) then they can do anything!!!  It is so exciting to finally have them home, isn't it??? Your kids are adorable! I am so glad that it sounds/looks like everyone is adjusting well

Cindy,
Beautiful, Beautiful children!! Thanks for passing on that Gaby is doing so well~~that really helps to know that with all these PGN delays the kids are still adjusting well, even at an older age! I know that is one of my many concerns, and I'm sure it shared by many. Congratulations!!! Cindy waiting for Camille

They are so cute!! She has SO MUCH HAIR!!!~ I'm jealous.
So if this adoption diarrhea (sp?) has been going around, would you suggest plastic pants for a pick up trip? Or wouldn't those have helped?

Hi Everyone!
Sorry it took so long to get back! Yes, everything is still wonderful!
And yes! I can do a piggytail on both sides of her head at 11 months . . . She isn't too thrilled though, pulls it out and because her hair is kinda curly it all sticks straight up, and then in her eyes and face and she giggles through all of it.  Plastic pants would probably be a good idea on the plane. Very watery green yuck everywhere, the people on the plane were giving me some really interesting looks.  Although, to tell you the truth, I really didn't care about how everyone else felt, WE WERE HOME!!!

For anyyone interested, Gabrielle came home on October 4, started sleeping fully through the nights 2 weeks after home, she is now crawling all over the house, she loves to JUMP, JUMP, JUMP, she still won't take any solids over the Stage 2, and completely adores, gets extremely excited, to go for rides in the vehicles! She giggles and laughs and coos and raspberries the entire time the trucks (yes, we do have back seats . . ) are in motion.
Don't need a mirror, I CAN HEAR HER CONSTANTLY!!!
