October update photos!

hannahclaire_oct08

No news... just photos. They certainly grab a hold of my heart and run away with it. Her hair has really filled in this past month. Wow. I hope she lets me put hair bows in! My favorite is the first one. I just love her expressive eyebrows! And the little dimple in one cheek... oh! Kevin has a dimple in one cheek too, but doesn't like me drawing attention to it so I'd just better shut up for now.

Okay, gotta get myself together after loving on these photos... gotta go out and vote!

Updated 11/5/08: Height 63 cm (25 inches), weight 6.3 kgs (13.9 pounds - woohoo!!! weight gain!!!), head circumference 41.5 cm (16.34 inches).

  1. OH MY GOSH -- could it be that she ACTUALLY gets cuter??? Thank you for posting! It brings me back to not so long ago when the photos were all I had. SOON, these photos will just be reminders but you'll have her cuteness in your arms and loving her forever.

  24. Love the dimple! How can she get any cuter! She looks so happy and healthy!

  25. Love the little curl! Just adorable.

    To answer your question, yes, I did. I don't think he's terrific by any means though. Coleman (his opponent) is pretty moderate on most things so he's not so bad. I'm not nearly as invested in the outcome of that race. Not like the other big one!

  26. She's got character that's for sure!! Too adorable.

  29. Oh yes! Dust off those hairbows:) Hehe! These are awesome update shots! I hope you hear something really, really soon.

  32. Comment 33 rolling in... LOL
    I hope that you plan on taking a computer with you to Taiwan when you do get that call Sarah! WOWOW...
    I just wanted you to know that I'm seriously feeling this wait for you and Kevin right now. You, Holli & everyone else who is so painfully close...It's so so hard and I just don't think that there are words to describe what we feel in our hearts at this stage of the adoption journey. You are close sweetie. Breathe, journal and keep pushing on...Keeping you close at heart.
