First Family Photo

Our first official family photograph.
we look a little happy, eh?

July 24th will be family day for sure.  It technically isn't offical until the 6th of August, but this is the day we were congratulated by the judge!

She weighs 15-ish pounds.  Her dress said size 1... I don't know how their sizing compairs to ours though.  18-24 months would work.  She is tiny weight but she is tall.  Size 3 diaper still (again, size 3 here, 15 pounds).

It was wonderful hugging and kissing her this afternoon!  

Yeah yeah yeah!

  4. BEAUTIFUL! Tears, here. Dylan has a huge smile on his face. He's so happy too! Though he thinks you are bringing her home NOW.

    I have already gone shopping. I cannot be contained.

    It will for sure be tricky for clothes for her-- Erik is a big boy (almost 30 lbs) and 18-24 mos pants are even big around his tiny bum- but needs to be that big for the length! You will need lots of the pants with the button-elastic inner tightening belt! Or just leggings and dresses!!! :D :D

    Look, there I go on an over-excited-can't-contain-words-coming-out-of-my-brain ramble. I am just so excited, for every ounce of it. Less than one month before you cross the threshold as a family!

    See you soon :)

  7. Beautiful family Jessa! I've been silently lurking and cheering you guys on. Dania might not know it yet, but she is the luckiest little girl in the world to have you as a mom. I love how she is leaning into her daddy in this photo. I'm so happy for you guys. Thank you for sharing your story:)

  12. Give a little love to a child, and you get a great deal back.
    This child is going to get alot of love, just imagine what you're going to get in return.
