Our Baby T is now five months old!! She continues to be such a blessing to our family. As many of you know, we are moving forward with trying to adopt her, although nothing will be finalized for months and months. And as is the case with all adoptions out of foster care, called “legal risk” adoptions, if a relative came forward wanting to adopt, our case would be in jeopardy…so please pray for the Lord to place T exactly where He wants her to be.
She is a smiley, roly poly, spitty (oh the laundry she creates!!), music-loving, sibling-adoring, squishy bundle of love. She still drinks a bottle about every three hours during the day, and is working on going longer stretches at night still. As of last week, we quit the pacifier cold-turkey in an attempt to help her sleep better at night (well, to help ME sleep better at night so I’m not up every few hours putting that binky back in!!), and so far, so good. She is getting stronger and tolerating more tummy-time, and she’s playing with nearby toys.
We are all positively smitten!
oh my heart gets so excited at this post…. I will be praying that the Lord places her exactly where He wants her to be and that He strengthens you all for the emotional rollercoaster in the months ahead! I’m so glad that even though you aren’t sure of the long-term outcome, you have chosen to “love anyway”… x0x
Janna, thank you for your prayers! 🙂
