Birthday Month!
WOW! 4! Insane!
Nina is doing awesome! We will find out more from the Neo-natal Followup team and her Ped at the end of the month but we, her mommy and daddy think she is kicking ass!
So Here are the updates thus far of our almost 4 year old kid who was born way too early and if you meet her you would never know it!
Nina wants to be a mom and a teacher when she grows up
She loves coloring and drawing and she is proud that she stays in the lines.
She is a lefty.
Her likes Lady Ga Ga, Katy Perry and Laurie Berkner (in no order)
Loves princess stuff, but lately it has been all about BATGIRL!
She can ride her 12 inch bike with trainers( think they will be off this summer)
She can spell her first and last name.
She counts to 20.
She is playing with the difference of boys and girls-says things like only the boys get this color plate and girls this color etc...
We have been telling her about Georgia and Livia since... well, always... she asks about them and wants to know when she will see them. I tell her they are in heaven and she said when will see get to see them..
Yesterday at Target she got really quiet and saddened look on her face, I asked what;s the matter and she said she misses Georgia and Livia.
I honestly do not know the right thing to say to her without screwing her up so I just say that I miss them too.

Almost ready to wait.
So tomorrow we are going to the agency to drop off our 15 copies of our lovely adoption profile!!! So exciting!!
We thought we would drop it off then go to a nice V-day lunch!
We have been preparing for 5.5 months I think to get to this point of being a waiting family. I think we are ready to see what happens and we are ready for nothing to happen for a while.
We are on no wait list. The birthfamily will pick us so who knows what the wait will be. We did our beast with the profile and it screams us so there is no sugar coating of anything.

updates
She learned to ride her bike last month! Her princess 12 inch bike from Santa! She told us she wants the training wheels off so she can go faster. She has been riding in the house around and around(she basically taught herself how to ride) We are so impressed as is she! Can't wait to take it outside!
She'll be 4 next month. AUGH!
Thought I would have her out of night pullups at bedtime but looks like we are months away from that.
She is doing excellent in nursey school. I have a conference end of month which should prove to be interesting.
In adoption news, we are homestudy approved which means we can legally adopt, now we need to complete our profile so we can get in our agency's book!

Happy New Year!
So we were talking about what word may define 2011...I said Hope...Jason said Joy..
Nina is still thinking on it.
We will begin this year eating pork since it's for good luck and welcome the new year with hope and the idea that good things will come our way.

Merry Christmas!
Nina made the nice list this year! She received a brand new bike!
She has become quite the little ham and loves to sing and dance for us!
She was in her first nursery school play and did awesome! She was not shy at all in front of the large crowd! We were so proud!!
