WOW!

Wow! I just realized that Bella has been with us for 1 month and on Saturday, it will be her 1 month anniversary HOME!!! I haven't blogged alot lately, due to the fact that she is keeping us quite busy!

Bella is doing great! She is now walking--- no more crawling! She is saying a few words... very important ones... like, Momma, Dada, Broer (Brother)... you know the ones that matter! LOL She doesn't like to sleep, she LOVES her bottle, is VERY affectionate, smiles OFTEN, not very fussy, oozes personality, blows kisses, waves to EVERYONE she sees... she is quite the little flirt! I have lots of things I want to blog about, but finding the time has been a challenge. I hope to be able to share some of them soon. I know it has been a while and I hope I still have some readers out there!

I still have bronchitis and now a severe sinus infection. I promise to post pics this weekend!

Until later...

Yeah,
I have been thinking about you and checking to see if there was an update on Bella's transition. I know for us sleep was by far the hardest transition and I wanted to see how you were doing with that. I am so excited for all her milestones in just one month! And now your first Christmas is just around the bend. Have a great day!

Hi Amanda,
Thanks for the comment on my blog. We are currently in PGN. It's been a hard wait. He will be our first child, and we are SO excited to bring him home.

Thanks again! Jenne

HAHAH! I am like Jennifer...I looked EVERYWHERE and don't see the private issue, either! But, we still love to check in on you.

Wish I would have been close to you last Saturday and we could have cried on each others shoulders! :( (poor poor tigers!)

Anyway....add me if you go private! :):)
