Our First Update on Little Sister

We received our first update yesterday!

It seems Little Sister is a morning person - with a wake time of 5:30 am. Yikes. And she takes long afternoon naps - that's my girl. Already dreaming about mid day snuggles with my little love.

Little Sister likes to eat everything! Love that!

And she's getting big. Missing that :(

I am so hoping for a quick court date when rainy season ends.

Those snuggles are coming and they will be such a salve, my friend. As you know, I missed a big chunk of time with my boys and it pained and worried me so much before they were here. Now I look back and wish I could have known how little it would matter. Sending love and peace. XO ~ Heidi
