Our precious girl...

After 1st Sunday at Church
Loves to go "bye-bye" & her bottle!

Jumping like crazy!


Little Sister loves to be in the middle of it all!



Trying to get some baby food in her mouth, we figured out she likes "big people" food better!


Our little over a week here has went so fast & has been so fun...I'll try to answer our most frequent questions...

How is she doing? GREAT!!!! She is amazingly sweet, good, precious, loving (and on & on ;)

How are the boys doing? So good! They love her & she loves them right back. The adjustment has went really well for the whole family...it just feels like this is just how its to be & we thank the Lord for that!

How is she sleeping? Well, she is adjusting to a total time zone change...last night we slept 5 hours in a row...its a record!

What is she like? She LOVES to smile & scrunch her nose & laugh. She loves to bounce in her Exersaucer (just like her brothers did). She likes to eat Cheerios & be outside. But mostly she loves her bottle & to be held all the time!

We've had wonderful meals from our church family, a visit from Grandma K & more family to come & visit soon! School doesn't start for a few weeks so we are thankful for this time! I hope to get started on a little "trip recap" soon! Much love & thanks to each of you for your prayers! It is just amazing to hold her in our arms, just a 16 lb bundle of answered prayers! She got amazing care in Ethiopia, you can tell by the way she interacts, she's healthy & has adjusted so well to our family! Praise be to our glorious God!
