Just in time for my mommy's birthday!














I am growing so fast! Learning new things each day, perfecting them, and moving on to the next thing that catches my eye. I have 2 new words/phrases! I surprised my mommy just in time for her birthday..."Mumma!" and "Aaahh duhh" for "All done!" I am so proud of myself that I smile and giggle after I say them! My favorite books remain "I Love You Through and Through" from Tita Diana and Tito Ulises, and "Binky" from my cousins Jeanine, Alyssa, and Joe! I love how both books have babies crying in them. For some reason I think it is silly, but I always make sure to kiss the sad faces on the page. I am eating good. I love peas, and I love Fruity Cheerios, Cheerios, and Lucky Charms. I have even started to try and feed myself using my spoon! I can't believe it! I am so proud I am becoming a BIG girl. I have woken up every morning this week with a smile on my face and ready to watch Dora and Handy Manny. My mommy is amazed that I am now able to fit shapes into my shape bucket. I understand so much when she talks to me now. I will meet with the Adoption Specialists and my team of doctors on May 11th for another evaluation. They will check to see that everything is going well for me--I think they will be amazed at how far I've come...I can't wait to see all of you at my Welcome Home party!

  1. Katrina, I bet Mommy is loving all these fun new things that you are doing - it is so much fun being a Mommy. Joey and Alyssa love "Binky" it is their very favorite book - we will have to bring you "Yummy, Yucky" too....Alyssa always says "Mommy's coffee is yucky, Mommy's cookies are yummy" ... she learned it from this book. We can't wait to see you - just a couple more weeks. Keep learning and exploring - Mommy told me that she doesn't need the rest! Ha! Love you! Jeanine, Bamm Bamm and Pebbles. :)
