Maybe I should post a photo of the loot. It was too much. Zoey was so over-stimulated. Next year - definitely a gift minimum! But hey - her first Christmas was awesome. All of the stuff you see was hers. A wagon, tricycle, bicycle, coloring desk, dolls, stuffed animals - you name it.
Zoey is growing so much and talking so much. It is so amazing. Amazing as to where she was 10 months ago. This time last year - I was sitting in Kiev - hanging with mom - tackling that blasted hill - hanging with the Bottos - sleeping (which by the way - I could use some major sleep these days). Just waiting and not knowing what was going on. Little did I know in 11 days I would meet the love of my life.
I know I will be an emotional wreck on some milestone dates that are coming up. I will be posting the ever famous referral photo, our first meeting, and some other photos from the orphanage - so check back often!
Also, today is my parents 40th anniversary - so Happy Anniversary to you both.
NOT THAT SAME GIRL...
