New Pictures of Alyzabeth - Show and Tell

We arrived home safely and are having a "down" day to get acclimated with "home". After being on the road for 16 days, we have experienced so much fun and received so much love (and gifts), it just was too much fun! AA has blossomed! So, I had to do some "Show and Tell" today (read this over at Mel's) .... if you followed our adoption story in September, you would know how much this is brag-worthy.......

Before I begin showing off AA a little, we must say that we are excited and sad about the referral situation. How many times have we waited, reading all the blogs we possibly could and crying for those receiving referrals and those missing another month?
We feel the same way now. How much longer for the February 2006 LIDer's? We are so proud of you who must withstand many more months. We just feel bad. I don't know what else to say. China has plenty of babies and they have to wait, that is the saddest part. sigh. What can we do for you?


Here's today's feature photos. AA understands so much of what we say. Over the course of the road trip, pictures were being taken every day so now she knows what "cheese" means and how to pose. She is wearing her new Nike's (thanks to DD, Leaa's, suggestion) and AA is moving so fast, climbing stairs like a pro!
These pictures were taken today; each time asking her to move to a different spot and to pose. What do you think? Proud Mama is beaming!




We are going to add photos of AA from our trip on the appropriate date so you probably will miss them unless you like going through old posts. We need to post them as we will be slurping the old posts into a book for AA.
Hope you have a happy election night!! We will have a toast of champagne in celebration or to numb the pain!!!
