More good news

No we didn't pass court early but we are only 2 days away!!!

We got another growth update on Peanut! She gained over 2 lbs in the last month and now weighs in at just over 10 1/2 lbs. I am so excited!! She is starting to catch up at the pace the doctor likes to see. She is still tiny and only on the WHO charts for head circumference but her rate of growth overall has been tremendous and couple that with her reaching developmental milestones of average 4 month olds and we have one awesome little girl. I am so proud of her for figuring out how to drink from that cup and start packing on the pounds.

Other than that I am still staring at her beautiful face and realizing that this is all starting to happen. We could be on a plane in a little over a month or possibly less. WOW! I still have a lot to do but for now I am going to try not to stress out about our court date and enjoy the good news that has already come to me this week and hope and pray for more good news on Friday.

Here is a poem that sums things up really well. I saw this on a friends blog and cried when I read it as I do kiss her sweet face each night.

Kisses In The Wind

I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.

I know you wonder where we are...what's taking us so long.
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.

Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin.
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.

May Gold hold you in his hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.

May God wrap you in his arms and hold you very tight,
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.
