3 Months Old

This was supposed to be posted yesterday, but I was having issues with Blogger.

Today is Miss Lucy's 3 month birthday!! I hope that she is having a wonderful day. We were scared once again with another typhoon hitting central Vietnam, but it seems for the moment, that the storm has decided to change its course and not head right towards Lucy's province. These storms will stress a girl out like nothing else. It is just terrifying to think of your baby in an orphanage unable to help herself with a powerful storm heading right her way. I think we are in the clear though.

Happy Halloween a day late. I got so mad last night because we had 1, yes I did say only 1, trick or treater. What a let down. I think the problem is that we live too close to a pretty busy street, so the kids seem to head the other direction. My nephew was a shark. So darn cute.

I am hoping to get an update really soon on Lucy. We should get new measurements and some new pictures. I am dying to see some new pictures. Babies change so much from month to month, so it will be so neat to see how much she has grown and changed. I told Justin that it almost felt like getting her referral all over again. I am so anxious to see new pictures of our girl.

I had a very real and detailed adoption dream last night. Justin and I were in Vietnam, we had Lucy, and we were actually pretty darn good parents. Usually my dreams are totally scary and I have no idea what to do with Lucy. But in this dream, she was happy and smiling and playing with us. It was great. She looked exactly like her picture. I think I had this nice happy dream because of the wonderful pictures and videos that Nicki has posted on her blog.

You are right - those adoption updates are just like the referral! Ugh - nervewracking! i can't wait to see her updates too :-) I'm so glad the typhoon diverted and she will be safe. Also I love your dream - it will be reality in no time. i can not wait!!! How disappointing about the TOT'ers.

Happy birthday, Lucy! My 11 month old nephew was also a shark this Halloween - same costume! Too cute! He wasn't too cooperative about keeping it on though...

I hope you get new pictures & updates soon.

Kelly, I didn't realize our girls were so close in age!
If you have my email, would you mind emailing me the approx. weight and length when you get them on lucy as we are not likely to get more than what we were given and are torn on what size clothing to pack hate to overpack with 2 older children along as well!) I can't tell you how much I would appreciate it!

Your nephew made a cute shark, my Gracie walked by while I was reading and said "OH, look at that...he,he,he" She got a big kick out him.
