Today is yet another milestone in our adoption story. As of today Alivia has been with me one day longer than she has been without me. I don't know if there's an official name for it, but I call it Bonding Day. Of course, there is no doubt that Alivia and I have bonded and bonded well. She's mama's little girl in every way!
This past weekend we celebrated her birthday with a big party. She had an absolute blast! She also received tons of gifts! The funniest moment, though, was when she went to "open" a present that was in a gift bag. First thing she did was pull out the tissue paper and try to blow her nose with it. Such a cutie! These are a couple pics from the big bash along with one more of the professional ones we had done last week.
Thursday we fly to St. Louis for the CHI picnic. It's going to be a fun weekend complete with a dress up tea party and lots of swimming pool time! Livi's going to love it!~ Jeana

Jeana -
I hope you and Livi have a great time! Have fun traveling this weekend! It looks like you guys had so much fun w/ the parties. She gets cuter and cuter everytime you post new pictures! Is she doing alright with the big girl bed? Have a wonderful day - Amanda :)
Thanks, Amanda! Yes, she loves her big girl bed. Last night when I put her to bed she got "snuck" back out and played for about 20 minutes then got back in her bed and went to sleep. It was too cute!

do you have a surgery date yet?
have fun at the CHI event!
I hope you all had a wonderful time at the CHI picnic!
Thanks, everyone! We had a wonderful time in St. Louis and at the CHI picnic. Everyone we met was terrific!
We do have surgery dates--August 21 for the tonsils/adenoids and October 4 for the jaw. I'll post it in a regular message, too, in case you miss it here in the comments.
