Yesterday was another big day. We went back to the government building with Grace, had meetings with 2 officials, signed some papers and then the adoption became official! Today we will go to the police station to start the processing of getting her passport.
We went shopping at a store that is something like our Walmart - very big with just about everything. Notably the store did not have air conditioning. Probably should have bought a beach towel just to wipe off the sweat.
Grace had a tough afternoon and only wanted to be held by Anita. If we put her down and if I held her, she would cry until Anita took her. After a nice bath and a long nap, she was much happier. She even played and laughed a little. Today we will try to get her back on her schedule to keep things smoother.

So happy to hear the progress and that the adoption is official. I know that's a big load off your minds.
Sounds like all of you were made for each other and sounds as if Grace is adapting fast. It's a big adjustment for all three of you, but you're handling it like troopers. Sounds like Grace has bonded very well with her Mommy, but she's laughing and playing with you, Carl, so that says a lot.
Were you able to get Grace some squeeky shoes to bring home?
We're anxiously awaiting more pictures. The ones I ordered from Kodak gallery are already on their way...yippee!!!!
What's the rest of the agenda until next Saturday? Will the rest of the days be less hectic so that you can all relax and really get down to the bonding?
Love you all so much,
Julie
Yippee! She is officially a Petite Ya-YA -in-training! GF-the iara yo9u will someday wear is heavy so get to practicing like a Princess! OOps! Forgive me--you already are! Auntie Kay is sooo in love with you Baby Girl! I was with your cousin Ashley last night and showed her your pictures! She said you were a cutie-pie just like her and she can't wait to meet you!
