So what does she look like?

She is little not too little but little. When she was born she was on the small side so she has always been little. Her size at birth and measurements were and are of no concern to me. I have seen many children this size thrive.

She is very busy, busy, busy!! During our visit she did not stop at all. At the last minute both I left for the Russia I stopped at Target and bought 2 pink canvas bags to put her toys in for my trip to see her. There was a possibility that she was going to come to me and stay longer but the weather was so cold and the roads although plowed still had icy spots. I am glad that I was the one that made the trip and not her.



I would have worried about her trip home and that would have been worst. I am not sure that I would have been told if she had arrive home safely right away. So it was way better that I traveled and not her.

Her hair is a dark blond with red highlights. Her eyes are a dark blue green color. She has a mouth full of teeth. She has little tiny hands and feet. Hopefully her feet will stay small so that she can get a bunch of deals of shoes.

I traced her feet so that I could start to look for shoes for her. I asked the Director if I could remove her shoe and she did. I placed her foot on the note pad and started to trace around her foot. I was so concentrated on tracing her foot accurately that I almost did not realize that her feet are very ticklish. She started to wiggle her toes, when I looked at her face she was giggling with a great big smile. Her foot measures 4 1/2 inches long.

Currently she is wearing 12 month size clothing so I have been directed to purchase size 18 month clothing. In the next couple of weeks Gerard is going to start her closet organizer. He has a plan and that is usually pretty scary because that means more work for me but this is work I will enjoy. I have to start thinking about her room.
