Coming to Bogota

Today, was as I post basically every time... another great day. It's hard to believe that this time two weeks ago that we hadn't yet met our daughter and now she is everything to us both. Tonight as we had helped her fall back to sleep after her poor painful gums woker her up, we both couldn't beleive how lucky be feel right now and just how beautiful she is. I can say that there are times that I look at her she is looking at me with those big brown eyes and I feel like I've been punched in the gut she is so beautiful.

Tonight we found out two wonderful things, first that our friend Amy is going to be coming to Bogota for a long weekend visit next Thursday! She had mentioned a while back that she was interestedin coming and we have been talking about it since then, but tonight she bought her ticket! It's is going to be so much fun to have her here in Bogota and we can't wait for her visit.

We also found out that a great friend in our Colombian Adoption internet group has been approved for their adoption and is being assigned to the Bogota office just as we were. It is possible that they could receive their referral for their child and be here before we leave! We have never met in person but have been of tremendous help to each other in our group and over the phone over the last several months so we hope we can meet them and their new child as well here in Bogota soon.

As you can see in today's photos, Monica and Gabriela look great together and Gabriela is already getting ready for her first Jimmy Buffett concert.
