NEW FAMILY UPDATE!!

First let me start by saying "we absolutely adore our Christmas angel." After such a long wait, I still find myself getting all emotional, especially when giving her a bottle and she lovingly gazes up at me . . . it is still hard to believe that she is finally with us at long last!
We have only been home for 44 days, and she has just blossomed!! Her growth and development is amazing, when we got her she was 6 months old, developmentally only 3 months old. She had zero neck muscle/control, was only on formula. She has acquired great muscle control now, she is eating solids, and today her first tooth broke through on the bottom!!! She is sitting up on her own, and she loves to stand assisted for longer and longer periods. She has a wonderful personality, she is our little social butterfly with a beautiful smile that can melt hearts!!!
Since we have been home my Dad has been deathly ill, on Feb. 2nd he had extensive open heart surgery, and is still in critical care. We can only go visit for a half hour 3 times a day, at 10am, 3pm, & 8:30pm., so I don't get much computer time. Will try and post some pictures and updates soon!! Please keep Dad in your thoughts and prayers!
