Really LOVES her ginger salad!
Does that make up for all the pictures I haven't posted over the last 4 1/2 months? I can't believe that it has been that long since I saw my daughter come off the airplane. And I am extremely happy to report that we are FINALLY BONDED!! I am completely and utterly love with my Bee! And it happened overnight, seriously. We had a rough time together the first 4 months, I mean really rough. And yet here we are on the other side....Happy. So let me tell you a little bit about my little girl. She is really cute!! In fact she gets cuter every day I think. She is the happiest baby ever and hardly ever cries, even when she gets a scratch or gets stung by a wasp. She only cries when Mommy has to give her to the teacher in the nursery when I volunteer at our youth group.  She sleeps through the night and takes a 3 hour nap.  She started walking about a month ago and is practically running.  She loves her big brother, so much so that he is the first one she looks for in the morning. She is starting to talk. She says her name ( Bee-a), Mommy, Daddy, Baby, Puppy , Baba, and her favorite thing to say is Riley. She calls him from the minute she gets up. It's so cute.  And did I mention that she is a bottomless pit. We sometimes think she is part billygoat because she will pick up paper and plastic and try to eat it. This girl LOVES to eat everything!  Which is great for me because I already have a picky 5 year old and a picky husband.  It's so nice to be able to make something for myself and it doesn't have to be kid friendly like chicken or plain pasta. She loves seafood, meat, chicken, eggs, cheese, really almost anything, except sausage. She loves garlic and spicy food which I think is awesome.  It is so amazing to be able to order a gyro and her and I just sit there and pig out together. She is SOOO my daughter, even if I didn't give birth to her myself.  She is tough and if Riley doesn't stop pushing her when I'm not looking she is gonna give it to him seriously in a year or two.  So I wish I could write more, and I will when I'm not exhausted, because I have so much to tell you all. And if you didn't notice, I made my blog public again. I just couldn't stand having to sign in all the time. For some reason my computer wouldn't save my username and password. So bye for now, but stay tuned for more.
