We had our first post placement visit last night. Everything was going great. Jaelynn was laughing and playing, like usual and then it happened. Randy was sitting on the floor next to the coffee table. Jaelynn went to put her hand on his leg, slipped and hit her mouth right on the table. She screamed and her lip bumped up and it even bled. Her first bad boo boo right in front of the lady doing the post placement visit. It was so sad. She got in my lap and went to sleep. Poor baby. She is fine and things are moving along with the finalization process.
Today we took her to get her blood work done. Thank goodness it's over. I couldn't watch, it took 3 people to hold her down Daddy, the man taking the blood and the nurse. I knew she was strong and I warned the man. He said wow that little girl is strong after it was all over. She only cried for a second. She really did pretty good, probably better than I did. I always hate getting those things done, even the shots are hard for me to watch. It just feels good to get it behind us. We should get all the results soon. She has been home for 4 weeks and 1 day now. Wow I can't believe it. God does hand pick the families and babies. It's the only way to explain how perfectly she fits into our family. We love her so much and are so happy she is in our lives.

Oh goodness. Poor baby, Hope her lip is better. Of course, her first big booboo is going to be in front of the social worker!!! I know what you mean about the dr's office visits. They are terrible on mommy's and baby's.
Thank you for sharing your final thoughts about how God places just the right baby in your family. I have been thinking and wondering about that so much lately...it was good to be reminded.
Take Care,
