She was so excited to get them. Her Mommy, Gamma, Aunt Jean, Aunt Joanie, Aunt Ali, Uncle Richard and a couple of friends at school all have glasses too.</div><div align="center">We went to the eye doctor on Monday and I had forgotten that she would eventually need glasses due to the Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) she had when she was born. Elaina had surgery when she was 3 months old in Guatemala. Elaina was a preemie and only weighed @ 2-2 1/2 pounds at birth and she had stage 3 out of 5 stages of the ROP. So glasses were inevitable. I had to laugh at my eye doctor (who I LOVE) she said:"Yep, she is YOUR daughter because we have the same stigmatism in our left eyes. (I also had eye surgery when I was a baby).</div><div align="center">These are transition lenses (didn't know that before I got them today)but when she goes outside and the lenses darken she looks like John Lennon.

We started our day with going to a WW meeting with Mommy, then we went to swim lessons and had to leave early so we wouldn't be late for the egg hunt. We go to the egg hunt just as they started and Elaina had fun gathering her eggs. (Sorry no pics-Mommy's camera card was full. Had to delete some pics,but luckily Aunt ALi saved the day and she took egg hunt pics for us.) Elaina actually sat on the Easter Bumy's lap this year. She gave him a high five but we just couldn't quite get the smile out of her. Of course once she was down off his lap she was all smiles. We had lunch and then ran some errands and then went to go watch ALi's boys play soccer. They did great!!

These past two years have been so amazing being a Mommy to the most beautiful little angel in the world!! (Ok-I am a little biased)</div><div align="center">Elaina spent the night are her Aunt Jean's house and Mommy picked her up bright asnd early. Uncle John has a tradition with his girls that on their Birthday he makes pancakes in the shape of the number that they turned. So today Uncle John made Elaina a pancake that looked like a 3 or if you turned it around the Letter E!!! Thank you Uncle John-hopefully they took a picture of it and will send it to me. (Hint hint) We then went to Church and went to visit Gamma at Costco and then we went swimming and then slept for two hours. Whew- what a day.</div><div align="center">Here are some pics (oops -out of order don't know how to fix that) from referral to now!!

This is the day that 2 years ago Elaina was placed in my arms for the first time. What a magical day it was. My Mom and I were waiting in the lobby of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Radisson</span> Hotel in Guatemala City with our eyes glued to the front door. I was talking to another <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">couple</span> who was with their baby and we didn't know that there was a set of elevators in the back of the lobby. It was then that my Mom said the words I will never forget:</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">"<strong>Judi, your daughter is here!!!"</strong></div><div align="center"><strong></strong></div><div align="center">I spun around and even thought there were about 6 people with her I only saw Elaina. Renee, the foster daughter was holding her and she brought her over to me and I took Elaina in my arms and she put her forehead to mine and we looked into each others eyes and our lives together began. It was amazing!! I can still recall every moment of our pick-up trip. Just minutes before she arrived some people were singing "I Can Only Imagine" what a beautiful song to hear just minutes before I was to meet my <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">daughter</span> for the first time.</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">So I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">took</span> a couple of days off work and we were supposed to go out of town but the weather was too cold so instead we went down to the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Country</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Club</span> Plaza and got a hotel room and drove <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">around</span> to see the lights and we took The lighted <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Cinderella</span> Coach for a ride around the plaza.

After Gamma poured the chocolate chips into the meausuring cup Gamma told Elaina she could try a couple of chocolate chips. She really liked that. Well we were making our Monster cookies and M & M's were next and they are Elaina's favorites. I wish I had a video camera to record what happened next. With the measuring cup in her right hand filled with M & M's she started to pour the M & M's into the bowl and her left hand appears and she swipes a handful of M & M's before she dumps the rest in the bowl. It was priceless. We were all laughing so hard.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqOdYMbaYT00akd2U0GFqM_czMTadsjBdKWLEQaluPajfutGsH1-iL4lcvgrh8HiX3_9j9fs7kK-H-D3J1lqAVqm3shDY05B5w7VzLvCpU6hyphenhypheneVpcAGq4ASaA4EXtVKQ-gITnzgzRv-svb/s1600-h/baking+2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267239920324102066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqOdYMbaYT00akd2U0GFqM_czMTadsjBdKWLEQaluPajfutGsH1-iL4lcvgrh8HiX3_9j9fs7kK-H-D3J1lqAVqm3shDY05B5w7VzLvCpU6hyphenhypheneVpcAGq4ASaA4EXtVKQ-gITnzgzRv-svb/s320/baking+2.JPG" border="0" /></a> <strong>YUMMY CHOCOLATE!!!!</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx9v0RauRZM6g5_hyphenhyphenZFhJCjm0Ga3WZvabi24an08HXali-1SDXAgaGw9OLW6hwrhIPREKNe69dChgfxmA0XCXIPd8vqZr9X3JobhT_rqSHZbVZR79YWxiXxEPGjys0xuxrTrBQOHcMosfj/s1600-h/cousins.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267239913693587170" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx9v0RauRZM6g5_hyphenhyphenZFhJCjm0Ga3WZvabi24an08HXali-1SDXAgaGw9OLW6hwrhIPREKNe69dChgfxmA0XCXIPd8vqZr9X3JobhT_rqSHZbVZR79YWxiXxEPGjys0xuxrTrBQOHcMosfj/s320/cousins.JPG" border="0" /></a>Cousins Kierstin, Elaina and Cassidy snap a close up!! <div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267239904730803810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJEAElx-wmHSDSUsK2VRGYl2KNAM8E-u5MsIX1Rx4ICjo_5fJGX7AeAvhvR8vQAdwfkC70wLeaOp4KgZsvDRtzQxnX4i_QPdQc3tteAR8Y3xyuwchEe1GbmsiW1kfmeWN_g5REybR_zX93/s320/k+and+l.JPG" border="0" /> </div><div>After Elaina went to bed on a sugar high the big girls got to make Gingerbread Houses.</div><div>Sisters Kierstin and Laura smile as they make their gingerbread houses.
