Shower-Celebration!

We really needed this stroller!


This ladybug towel was adorable!


My friends Dudley and Rachel made a lovely quilt for Michelle and another for her dolly!


Sisters!


MinHee and Monica gave us such a beautiful shower!


Two of my sweet friends from our Lifegroup at our church gave us a shower last night. It was wonderful! Michelle had a great time and charmed everyone with her cute outfit and "squeaky shoes". She ate cake, ran around laughing, and had a lot of fun opening presents. I think everyone was surprised by how well she is adjusting to life as a Cole!

We felt so loved - we got some great books, puzzles, toys, and even a ballerina tu-tu with a fairy princess wand. I couldn't believe how many people gave Michelle a gift, and then "one for her doll". And I won't have to buy her clothes until she's in kindergarden! We also collected donations for her orphanage, and we are delighted to give back to the Lily Room at Luohe.

Thank you so much Monica and MinHee, and to all my sweet friends.

Michelle looks like she's having a great time! We look forward to hearing how your trip to Walter Reed goes tomorrow. We'll be thinking of you!
