Where's the time going?

Two months ago today we finally walked through the door of our home for the first time as a family of 6. It is so hard to believe it has already been that long. The time has flown by so fast. I am so very thankful to know that I will never again have to leave her. That she is now my daughter forever. It is unbelievable how much this child has changed in such a short time. She has went from wearing a size 18 months clothing to a 4t. She is quickly catching up to the size she should be as a 5 year old. Her hair is looking so healthy and beginning to thicken and grow a lot. She understands pretty much everything that we say to her and is talking so much. She is starting speech therapy this week. She will be working with one of the therapists Leigh had when she was little. I am so excited about that. We have really missed her. We had an occupational therapist evaluate her and she is doing amazingly well. No food issues other than stubbornness on what she will or will not eat (does not seem to be sensory issues, just preference), none of the low muscle tone that is common for children with Down Syndrome and her motor skills are absolutely amazing. I had prepared myself to deal with lots of delays. So far we have not seen many which makes us so very happy. The ones that we have seen have nothing to do with her special needs. They have to do with spending her first 5 years in an orphanage. They are all things she will catch up on quickly. She is a VERY busy little girl, ALWAYS moving. She runs hard from morning till night and will not sit down at all, because she knows if she does she will fall asleep immediately (and she can't have that lol) . I love her so very much. I cannot imagine my life without her in it. She is such an enormous blessing. Looking forward to seeing what the next few months bring.

 I am ready for SUMMER!!!!!!!! I am so NOT a snow fan, but the girls sure had a lot of fun though........
