We have the baby!!!

This is Donna posting for Barb, who is a little busy right now holding the sweetest little baby you ever did see!  Today was the shortest bus ride we've had since we got here!  Anna went right to Barb and did not cry a tear.  Now, however, she does not want to let Barb go!  She has the darkest hair and the most beautiful dark eyes....and I'll go on forever, so best I let you see for yourself!

  20. Oh that Beautiful girl!! I recognize that room- that is where I met Maddie as well! those black & white cushions...all the pictures of babies on the wall...and those scared little baby eyes! Maddie was just the same- no tears, just shock- her first giggles came from propping her against my knees on my lap and playing with a water bottle- squeezing it so the water came up and she would put her mouth on it- she thought it was the FUNNIEST thing! Write down everything you can remember about that first day! A year and a half later I am telling Maddie what I remember about that day and she wants to know! I remember snippets- so just write it down now! You think you will never forget, but it's easy to forget the small details!!
    Enjoy!!
    Check out the charity shop on shamien Island (A gift from China)- they have great stuff- a bit spendier but worth it because they donate to orphanages.

    can't wait to see more pics and hear more about your sweet girl!!!
