We have new pictures...YAY

Our adoption agency was able to send us new pictures of Kanya. We are super excited. The pics are from all different stages of her life, have a look

Kanya's Room

During the last couple weeks we have painted and put the finishing touches on Kanya's room. We are really excited about how it all turned out. Here are some pics

Thanks Everyone for a Great Shower

Two weeks ago my family had a shower to celebrate Kanya. We still have no word when we will be able to go to Thailand, but it was fun to have a shower. It really made everything feel real. I really want to thank my aunts and my mom for making a unique adoption shower that included a quizz on Thailand and a Thai fruit dish. I also want to thank everyone who attended for making it a special day.
Here are some pictures from the day

Thai Fruit dish

The gift table-I love all the princess bags

Makenna showing everyone the picture frame she made

Me holding up a picture my mom made.

That picture my mom made has Kanya in the background with an adoption poem over top. I thought I would share the poem:

The Gift of Life
We didn't give you the gift of life,But in our hearts we know.The love we feel is deep and real,As if it had been so.
For us to have each otherIs like a dream come true!No, we didn't give you The gift of life,Life gave us the gift of you.

Kanya's room

We bought some bedding for Kanya this week. We love it. It's everything we were looking for. Purple (to match the tinkerbell pillow) femine, and not too over the top. It's cool to walk by her room now. It looks like a little girls room. Sometimes I just go in and sit. Crazy eh.

New Picture

We have a new picture!!! She looks so cute. So big. So happy. It reminds me how hard it will be for her to leave her foster family.

She will be two in September. I am just trying to remember what my nieces and nephews were like at the age. I wonder what words she knows, what she likes to do.

Sorry It's been so long

I apologize for the delay in a new posting.
Things are good here. We have received our "Order of No Objection" from the Canadian Gov't. From what we understand this is the last thing we were waiting for here in Canada. Now we just wait, and wait.
We now have the email address for Kanya's foster mom in Thailand. We have exchanged introductory emails. I have so much I want to ask her. I need to slow down and remember we have months to get to know her, so I don't have to rush.
I have a few new outfits I thought I would post. Also Aunt Jill bought us a baby scrapbook. It is so cute. It is hard to find baby books that will work with adoption but this one is perfect. It has one page entitled when we were waiting for you which is perfect. We can put the pictures and emails we have now.

Check out the New items purchased at Disney

The clock says "click your heals and you'll be carried far away. " I love the Wizard of Oz!!

The pillow says "Dream" at the top. I am thinking a nice lilac would be a good colour to paint her room. What does everyone think? Any good ideas for a little girls room?

Just so everyone knows we also bought a carseat so I have purchased some practical items.
