A Princess and A Ballerina

Before we begin our adventure - Today we are (FINALLY) meeting with our caseworker for our "Six Month Post Placement Visit" for Sophie's adoption. (Yes, she is ten months old and has been with us since birth!) This is the final step before filing for adoption finalization!! Please pray that all goes well and we can make her our FOREVER daughter soon!!! She IS our forever child in our hearts - we just want to make it official!!!


Saturday Morning started off lovely (except for the fact that the graduation party was a "pool party" and it was POURING out!). Hattie decided it was a lovely day to be a princess and Sophie was in such a sweet mood that we decided to make her a ballerina! Here's how it all went down:


Hattie - "see my Ring - awww, it's so pretty!! I must be a princess!!!"



Sophie - "see my tu-tu. I must be a ballerina"

S - "OK Mommy, I am ready for a picture!!"
H - "Oh mother, PLEASE - do you ALWAYS have to put that camera all up in my grill?!?!"

Mommy - "Uuuhh, Hattie - your pretty princess panties are showing!!"


S - "Yes, but sister - those shoes are to DIE FOR!!!"


S -"Strike a pose!!"

H - "Is it a DUCKIE ya kiss to get a prince?"

S - "Nah, it's a froggie - but I think mine is broken!!"

S - "forget frogs and ducks - I'm just gonna call that stinkin' prince!!"

Daddy - "HEY! No princes until you are 45!!!"

And half an hour later the Ballerina - so smiley in these pictures - was puking her little guts out!!
