Katie Update

Well, Katie's been home 3 months. We have met with the social worker, gotten her birth certificate from the states, and gotten her a social security card. We also got the paperwork that she is officially a US citizen, which was extremely critical to obtain the previous two achievements. She is crawling around here and pulling herself up on things like a mad woman. She is extremely busy, and keeps a tight schedule. She enjoys to read and eat books. She can stand up by herself, and lower herself back down very well. She points and will direct you where she wants to go or what she wants to see. She says Momma, Mom, Dadda, Keeg, Eat, Top Top (stop stop), night, cheese, yes, this, and that. She gives high fives and will give kisses. Her smile will melt a room, and get her anything she wants. (VW bug, here we come!) Her nicknames are Katie, KaeKae, Sister, Sis, and Girlfriend. She will smile anytime she sees a camera. That is also when she says cheese...

She is just a blessing. And to watch her and Keegan together is another blessing. They love each other so much. And they usually show it, but sometimes...
