True Blessing

It has been an incredible couple of weeks! Ava is doing great. And so are Mom and Dad!! A little less sleep these days but heck we have been sleeping for years. Who needs sleep when there is baby Ava around!! Ava is a handful and is feeling right at home these days. She is crusing the walls, climbling the steps and acting like a silly 10-1/2 month old should act. Priceless :-)

There isn't a minute when she is not curious about something. She has to be wherever we are doing what we are doing and eating whatever we are eating. But give her a T.V. remote or a plastic lid to a travel mug and she is content for ummmm....minutes!

We went to Daddy's work today and had a blast. The people at Platte River are so nice. We can't wait to see them all again.

Ava is adding so much joy and happieness to our lives we can't imaging life before her (we must have been sleeping). She is almost 11 months young. Her first birthday is right around the corner. We are excited to meet more of our relatives. We hope they can make the journey to see us!

Our friends Chris and Ann should be getting the call that Aiden is coming home soon. We can't wait to meet Aiden. We know we will all be best buds!!!

I had better run and get a few things done while Ava is napping.

Till the next nap... bye, bye

She sounds like an absolute dream and is ever so beautiful, too!!! We have loved following along on your blog during your first couple weeks home and also can't wait to hear that Aiden is on his way home to Chris and Ann!!
Love,
Chris and Kelly

Ahhh, yes.....life as an Eric Carle book....The Very Busy Baby! We have that edition here, too! Tiring, but priceless!

Congratulations Leslie and Adam! I've been following your blog but have been too technically challenged to post any comments. Hopefully this one gets through. She is beautiful. I'm so happy for the three of you...

wow...that was way easier than when I tried it at work..I'm embarrassed now. Anyways, now that I'm through, do you guys have an email address I can write to you at? I'd love to hear all the details...and get some parenting tips. We've got 3 weeks until my due date!

Congrats,

Misti

Thank you for your kind words about our referral! I'm so happy we've made it this far in the journey, now for just a little more patience as we wait for travel clearance. Someday we will all have to get together with our babies so that they can all meet. Perhaps Heritage camp in a few years, though it would be good to meet Ava and you before that!
