Seven months ago a princess traveled across the ocean to meet her new family!
(This is a long video, the first few minutes are all you need to watch though!)
Can you believe that this was once our baby girl? So stoic and so quiet. She sat in a walker all day long! When we got her home, she could barely sit up on her own.
Now the girl doesn't sit still for a second! She has lots of new skills to show off. Her favorite though, is to try and climb my TV stand to get to her Playhouse Disney!
Oh shoot, momma caught me again!
Her other new skills include walking with her toy, and the stink bug crawl. This girl is going to be walking any day now!
This girl is so amazing, and I can't even imagine what her life would be like if she was still in the orphanage.
She is perfect, and the boys wait on her hand and foot! To think she was given up simply because of an extra chromosome. There is nothing this girl can't do! We are so happy to get her out of a life of pain, and finally have a princess in the house!
