Back Shots!



Ok-so we decided to start posting a few non-face shots. Here she is; getting all bundled up today to go OUTSIDE for a passport photo at the local photography studio. She was so interested in the action along the drive, sitting in Kaia's lap and watching the world go by! Really something to see-MAN, do they bundle her up! She looked funny in her get-up, at least 5 layers, and sweaty and hot before we could make it out! We took her hat off in the car, and she just sighed in relief.

She is just awesome! Really getting so used to us now, actually-for the first time, didnt' want to go back in the play pen at the end. Holds on to Kaia, and kept reaching for her. Breaks your heart. She doesn't know we'll be back, but I keep telling her so. She is so smily and laughing at the workers, we can't wait for that for us. But-she does totally warm up by the end, I always wish for just a little longer, like 30 more minutes, as we really seem to get along at the end. She never cried today, though. Was serious, but comfortable.

Kind of like dating Kaia, though, for me. I clapped and danced around her, making faces and hooting, and it was on the fourth date she gave me a smile, finally. I keep telling her this. Now look at her. Come so far! She's a dreamer.

JP. We love it when you are feeling "UP" and with your old sense of humor. We look for that in the blog...like you look for smiles at the O. We pray each day for good days and new signs that Sylvi is knowing who her mom and dad are--and she's ready to bust out of there to a life that will be unbelievable! Tell T&K (and Tante Glo) that they are teaching us all a lesson on patience. I'm sure it's agonizing to be so close--but yet so far away from Sylvi--so far no complaining??? What an amazing group you are! Don't cut back on what you share in the email and blogs.....we are always standing and waiting. Love to you all. Gma Diane

Love, Liz =-)
