I can't believe how well this transition is going! Grace is easy going - as long as she's with me! We recognize that I'm the "most-familiar stranger" to her right now, but it sure feels like it was meant to be... that she knows that I'm the mom.

This picture was taken just before we went to breakfast. She's not a picky eater. She eats a little too fast, so we have to slow her down.


The picture below was in the doorway to our hotel room. We just came back from a quick trip to have her passport picture taken, and she wanted me to put her hat and mittens back on! She really likes them!

Thanks to "Aunt" Kathy for the mittens and hat! Thanks to Tammy and my friends at work for picking out the cute outfit!

Sorry that this one is blurry, but you can see that she's smiling more often!


After all the running around in the hallway, Mom helped me with feeding Grace (Sasha) lunch in our room. I laid down with her in my bed and she was asleep for her nap in five minutes! What an angel!
