Update on Hannah!

Future pianist
I am smiling for my new mama and daddy!
Do we have a little attitude!
My nose itches!!!

We got an update on Hannah today! She is 28in tall and Weight is 19lbs. They have not repaired her lip which is fine with me. David and I will be there through all of her surgeries. She is walking and she has five teeth. Enjoy the pictures. I think she has the most beautiful eyes. We have 11 days till we get Hannah.

Airline Tickets



We have our airline tickets and we are almost ready to go. Hannah's ticket came today by FED EX. I just love it when that guy drives up, he's always is delivering something fun for our trip. He is really getting to know our family. He always ask for an update. I think that is kinda cool. Next month at this time we will have her.

Disneyland and Ben's Parents












we met Ben's parents down at Disneyland last Sunday for the day. It was a nice day. My mom didn't have a great time she got the flu. She slept most of the day on a bench somewhere. I don't think she will ever forget this trip.
