E-MAIL FROM GUATEMALA


I GOT AN E-MAIL FROM GUATEMALA LAST NIGHT SAYING THAT MAYA NEEDED BIGGER CLOTHES. SHE IS REALLY GROWING. THANK GOD, I HAD PACKED MOSTLY 3-6 MONTH SIZES. AT 3 1/2 MONTHS SHE WAS 10.3 POUNDS. SHE MUST BE CLOSE TO 12 POUNDS NOW. THE FOSTER MOTHER SAID THAT THE CLOTHES I LEFT IN OCTOBER WERE ALMOST TOO LITTLE. SHE ALSO SAID THAT SHE WAS DOING GREAT. THAT SHE WAS A VERY HAPPY AND HEALTHY BABY. I AM SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT. I SHOULD BE GETTING THE MEDICAL REPORT AND NEW PICTURES SOON. IN 10 DAYS I WILL HAVE PLENTY OF PICTURES IN NUMEROUS OUTFITS.


QUOTE FOR THE DAY BY EMILY MATTHEWS:
FROM HOME TO HOME, AND HEART TO HEART, FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER. THE WARMTH AND JOY OF CHRISTMAS, BRINGS US CLOSER TO EACH OTHER.

    Ginger...do tell, what are you favorite baby stores to shop at? Ever try Gymboree? I have to keep out of there, I buy something every time I go in! I have the same baby clothes shopping addiction as you do...I just can't stop myself!

    That's the same problem I have. Everyone tells you to expect these babies to be smaller than you think, but mine is always bigger than I think! Oh well, it's an excuse to shop some more right?
