Two months ago today a very scared and sad little girl walked into our hotel room and became our daughter. She grieved hard that first day, but it has been all uphill since then. She is the happiest little girl and has filled our life with so much joy. We can't believe that she has only been with us for two months- it feels like she has always been a part of our family. She has transitioned without any hiccups and is the perfect addition to the Skinner family. Brett and Kate love each other and do not want to spend any time away from each other. If one of them wakes up before the other they constantly ask where the other one is. It has been a joy to watch them bond. Brett has transitioned into his role as big brother without a hiccup as well. I am so proud of him. He really does love her and has had very little jealousy issues. It has gone WAY better than I could have ever hoped for. We are so blessed.
Kate loves to be the center of attention. When she knows that all eyes are on her she just lights up. It is so fun to watch her. She really is so happy. She laughs and smiles almost all day long. She continues to eat well and has gained 2 pounds since coming home! She is also a wonderful sleeper and sleeps 12 hours most nights. She loves to dance and sing. She also loves to put on jewelry and shoes and wear purses and makes sure we don't go out of the house without a bow in her hair (that's my girl!). We are still so amazed at how perfect she is. God has richly blessed us with you Kate!
Happy 2 month Family Day sweet girl! We love you!
Holding Kate for the first time. One scared and unhappy little girl.
My girl! Wow what a difference 2 months make!

We love you so much Kate. Can't wait until Daddy Bob's booboo is better so you can come over and spend the night and play outside.
We are going to have so many fun days together. We thank the Lord for our precious granddaughter.
Love,
Ma and Daddy Bob
