Olive's Measurements

We were given Olive's measurements today!
She is VERY disproportionate.
She is the average weight of a 7-8 month old, and the length of a 14 month old.
17.75lbs and 30 inches
Getting clothing to fit should be interesting...

We got new pictures of Olive!!!!
I am so excited... I could just cry.




We were told
"We're still waiting on information from Olive's social worker. I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything!"
I asked for clarification and this is what she said

"I think that the "waiting on information" part means that she's waiting to hear that everything is complete (and together....your paper work and Olive's), so that a travel date can be issued. She's trying to stay on top of everything so that she can get you a travel date as soon as possible. I did ask her to clarify that for me though!"

Here comes the anxiety and nesting!!!! I'm so excited!

I will be praying for your family and for a quick and easy adoption process! Ohhh...and if you add the follow feature to your blog, it would make it easier for everyone to keep up with your updates. :)

PICTURES!!!!! Your heart must be about exploding! What a treasure! And she is adorable!!!!

She and Tavi [:)] are about the same size. Though Tavi should be a little bigger now I hope as her last measurements were from about a year ago. She turns 4 on teh 14th! :(

***As for clothes, I am thinking overalls, or one pieces. Forget pants, no way will they stay up! LOL

I am so excited for you! Can't wait till you get to travel to bring her home!

And patiently waiting... said...
