We got another update and a picture...this picture is the closest thing to a smile I have seen so far!
"She is full of energy and bursting with excitement, that is when you don't catch her sleeping. She has a strong grip, and a beautiful smile, which she shows off quite a bit, especially when a familiar voice is speaking to her"
She gained over three pounds in the last month...praise God! She is still a little one, but she is looking so good in the picture.
I think updates are just about my most favorite thing in the world. Can't wait to be able to share her picture with all of you!

I can barely contain my excitement for you! Your generousity in sharing these momentous events makes me so grateful to you. We are still waiting, but your story gives me hope ( I'm the Nana-in-waiting).
Awesome! You are right, updates are the best! I can't wait to get one!
I'm glad to hear that your baby girl is doing better....that's a great weight gain! I've been following your blog for a bit....We're just starting our Ethiopia journey to our little girl too...I haven't started blogging about it yet though....
I hope your little darlin' keeps picking up and thriving!
take care.
